Vote for my Spicy Fuelled Blog

There are loads of blog communities where you can vote for your favourite blogs. I thought i would bring attention to two of the most popular sites – FuelMyBlog and Spicy Page.

Both of these sites work very in a similar way to Digg. You place an image on your blog to vote for your blog like the image to the right.

Fuel My Blog

FuelMyBlog reminds me of those million dollar websites that sprung up a year or so ago – you know the ones where you had to buy an ad on the site per square. The layout of FuelMyBlog is very similar. Blogs are not listed in a directory style but rather each blog is represented by an image.

When you scroll over the images a small rectangular box appears with basic info of the blog. From this box you can give it a thumps up or a thumbs down – exactly the same as diggs digg this story or bury it. The box also tells you how many votes the blog has had in total and how many it has had today. You can only vote once per day on a blog.

Spicy Page

I find Spicy Page is a better site. It’s a lot easier to navigate around the site and you dont need to browse through hundreds of images like you do in Fuel My Blog.

That being said, i much prefer the graphics that Fuel My Blog uses better images to help promote your blog.

SpicyPage also lets you send messages to other bloggers privately through the site but other than that and the cosmetic differences i mentioned before there really isn’t a huge difference between them.

Which to use

I’m personally not a huge fan of these vote type sites but im sure it generates a little traffic for some blogs. The vote banner for FuelMyBlog is much better in my opinion but if i was you i would link to these sites via text links. You will get less votes because of it but you will not it wont screw up your blog design.
