AREA 1 has been growing and growing since its beginning, but not that much. The blog is still young and I don’t have budget to pay for any article.
What could I offer to you now is only expossure. Here’s what that means exactly:
- Author box at bottom of post with links to website and bio. Promote your own blog, get readers;
- Exposure to a constantly growing traffic.
I realize that this isn’t much, but unfortunately this is the best I can do at this moment.
And now, I can offer you:
1 MONTH OF FREE ADVERTISING (125×125 – Sidebar) for each guest post.
If you write a guest post, I will put your 125×125px banner in the sidebar, for one month!

Happy birthday AREA 1! Today we celebrate our 1st year (hopefully more will come).
I’m really sorry for not posting anything since last month, but I had some problems with work and within my family. Those were more important than anything, I wasn’t in a good mood and I didn’t have enough time for this.
Now, that’s enough with apologies, let’s speak about the future. I’ll try from now on to post at least 1 article per week. Contests are on their way too. You’ll find out more about this at the right time.
