The CommentLuv Plugin Its time for the Mash Up. Over the last few weeks I have read a lot of great articles and decided to share the latest articles since I couldn’t narrow down to ten great articles I have read since I last shared a Mash Up. So I found ten current great articles in blogging credibility, blog improvement, freelance service presentations, freelance, and social media. Haskell, and HTML5 history API.

I have decided to try something new and that was to add a community news submission option to Evolutionary Designs. Currently, I am looking into several submission options and way to submit those submissions to Evolutionary Designs. Until I have it figured out, you can submit your articles to the Evolutionary Designs Tumble Blog. There is a submit page where you can submit your original articles or great articles you find. But please only submit articles about design, photography, SEO, Photoshop, tutorials, freelance, blogging and business.

If your articles are approved, they will post live on the Tumble blog and then some articles will be added to the Weekly Mash Up. Currently, we are only approving one or two articles a day but once there is need, we will post more. So start your link building today, and submit your articles to Evolutionary Designs Community News.

The Mash Up

Take a look at the articles and tell us what you think of them. If you want your articles featured on our Mash Up, start commenting, sharing articles and talking with me on Twitter, Google+, and Facebook. The more I know about you and your website, the better chance I have of finding you on the web. Another, great for us to noticing you and getting your article listed here, is by using the community news submit option.
