Building a Bigger, Better Nashville Blogosphere

Terry Heaton says the number of Nashville bloggers has doubled in the past four months. I was speaking to some Nashville political bloggers earlier today and said, half-seriously, that I longed for the day when there were 50 Nashville political bloggers doing what I do, so I could stop. There aren't 50 yet, but one day there will be, and I'd like to help new bloggers get up and bloggin, and existing Nashville blogs get more traffic. To that end, I've lowered the price of advertising here to a rock-bottom $20 per month or $45 for three months - but with a catch: Only ads from Tennessee bloggers will be accepted at those prices, and Nashville-area bloggers who cover news and politics will get preferential placement. This affects the right-side ad column only, and there is space for only six ads at a time. The two ads currently in that slot will both expire on or before June 23.

And, yes, I'll accept ads from liberal blogs.
