(India only)
Bhartiya Janta Party (BJP) is gathering support of bloggers with new online campaign “Bloggers for Advani”. They earlier launched a blog and massive online advertising campaign to create awareness about Prime Minister candidate.
In this new “Bloggers for Advani” campaign, they have created round-shaped badges which bloggers can put on their blog to show their support for Lal Krishna Advani.
Considering large size of Indian blogosphere, BJP will surely gather considerable support from this new campaign.
No link juice…
One thing I have realized as a blogger is, if they (BJP) had put a listing like “bloggers supporting us” on their campaign page, more bloggers would have showcased these badges for extra link and traffic.
In blogosphere, easiest way to attract links is giving backlinks in return!
Update: Mallika informed us via a comment that campaign site now have a list of bloggers for Advani.
Thanks Mallika.

I don’t think bloggers would wanna support any particular party especially not the BJP unless the blogger is a fanatic.
Wait, soon they will start asking people to have a small tattoo on their shoulders saying “I am for Advani” 😀 😛
It would have been great if the party considered paying some $$ to bloggers supporting him 😛
