Iowa & Des Moines Blogs. Add Yours Here!
As a follow up to Cara Hall’s article in Juice (and on dmjuice.com) titled Get Blogging Already, I decided to create this post to help our readers find more Des Moines blogs and other bloggers in Iowa. If you live in Iowa and would like your blog added here, either add it to our comments section below, or send me an email and I’ll add it for you (info @ idesmoines.com).
In case this is your first time here, I’ll give you a little background on myself and this site. My name is Jeff Carey and I own an Internet consulting business in Clive. We mainly specialize in search engine optimization (SEO) and pay-per-click advertising (PPC) to help companies find new customers online. In the summer of 2007 I launched iDesMoines to blog about interesting people, events and companies in central Iowa. It’s been fun to watch the site grow to several hundred visitors per day. Outside of work, my interests include golf and hybrid vehicles. I currently run about 20 blogs and have several ghost bloggers helping us create fresh content.
So, here is the list in no particular order!
