	            	            Really good advice with great examples, Max.

Many of the items you mention, such as thinking about your title, description and meta-keywords form the basics of overall search engine optimization. As I'm sure you're aware, these basic "blocking & tackling" techniques should be done for every page on anyone's website or blog. However, having a link pointing from one 'big site' with a reputation provides a significant boost to the site's ranking, which can be done with having a link on the author's or review page pointing back to a personal site somewhere (even your own Facebook page).

I also think you've done a great job of killing two birds with one stone. You are helping people get their own presence boosted by teaching them how easy it is to use best practices to submit some type of review. The clever win-win is that TechBites.com also will increase its presence as more reviews are added. Which in turn makes it even more valuable to individuals that add reviews...

Great writing as always.    :-)

Best regards,
  Chandler
