Comments on: Is It Necessary For A-listers To Get First Dibs? http://shegeeks.net/is-it-necessary-for-a-listers-to-get-first-dibs/ The latest in online and mobile technology with Corvida Tue, 07 Feb 2012 23:41:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: shafqat http://shegeeks.net/is-it-necessary-for-a-listers-to-get-first-dibs/comment-page-1/#comment-16981 shafqat Fri, 16 May 2008 17:16:36 +0000 http://shegeeks.net/is-it-necessary-for-a-listers-to-get-first-dibs/#comment-16981 Great points. Its a bit of a double edged swort - a lot of big blogs will only give you coverage if they are the first with the story. Unfortunately, the coverage on some of the big blogs isn't as thoughtful or insightful as the detailed analysis on some of the smaller ones. So there is a tradeoff. <br><br>We got a ton of traffic from TechCrunch and it helped put us on the map - but what we are really looking forward to is coverage from the so-called 'non-A list' that we think will actually have an influence on real users rather than 'drive-by users.' At the end of the day, I think your target audience should probably dictate the approach? Great points.
