I always like to highlight a good idea when I see one, and #BeMyGuest is a great example.

Last week, Emily Cagle and I were chatting about a guest post that she’s going to write for PRettySocial. I love guest posts for a couple reasons:

1. I like giving other bloggers access to my community in hopes that you (my readers) will find another cool blogger to follow.
2. I like providing a fresh outlook on PRettySocial, and letting someone else share their opinion. Let’s face it, I’m pretty opinionated and I’m sure you get tired of listening to me ; )

So when Emily shared her #BeMyGuest idea with me yesterday, I immediately loved it! The concept is simple:

During March 2010, anyone taking part will aim to write at least one post for someone else’s blog, and feature at least one guest post on their own blog.

A Twitter hashtag is involved, so all you have to do is tweet out your blog details and the hashtag #BeMyGuest to let people know you’d like to take part.

Your tweet might look like this:

“I write a blog about #media called The M3dia Blog <link> and I’d like to take part in #BeMyGuest http://bit.ly/bemyguest”

“I blog about #food at The Yum! Blog <link> and I’d like to take part in #BeMyGuest http://bit.ly/bemyguest”

You can connect with as many bloggers as you want, for as many guest posts as you’d like to feature or write…it’s up to you!

In the spirit of this, I’d like to dedicate March as a guest blogging month at PRettySocial! Of course, I’ll still be blogging as well. However, if you’re interested in guest blogging, just shoot me an email explaining who you are and what you want to blog about — nicole.vanscoten (at) gmail.com.

My usual topics include: public relations, social media, marketing, gen y, wedding planning, life, and more…but I could be swayed if you have an awesome idea that doesn’t really fall in the scope of this blog, so try me!

And if you’re interested in having yours truly guest blog over at your place, email me! I’m on the hunt for some places to guest blog as well.

Can’t wait to hear from you! And stay tuned for some fresh perspectives on PRettySocial this month : )
