TODAY IS MY 1YR BLOGOVERSARY!!
I never dreamed I would make it a whole year (and still love it as much as I do)
WOOOOOHOOO!!!
HAPPY 1YR BLOGOVERSARY TO ME!!!!!
- 365 Days since I started blogging
- 308 Followers
- 266 Posts
- 6 Giveaways
- 2 Bloggers I met IRL
So here is my list of how to make it through your first year of blogging:
1. Make sure you have a cute blog design (Thanks Jessica)
2. Post lots and lots (and lots) of pictures.
3. Comment on other people's blogs.
4. Don't be scared to be yourself.
5. Turn off word verifications -- they are terrible
6. Participate in blog carnivals/memes (or start your own)
7. Enter lots of giveaways -- free stuff is awesome!! Host some giveaways too!
8. Try to learn some basics of blog programming (is that even a term??) -- it makes your life so much easier!
9. Only tell your "real life" friends/family about your blog if you want them stalking you and NOT ever commenting! (hint, hint)
10. Post when you can. Don't feel like you have to do it everyday or even on a regular schedule.
And most importantly....
11. HAVE FUN!!!!!!
I thank all of you for making my past year such a great time. I know I will keep blogging for a long time to come! I can't wait to see what this next year will bring!
