A Tag From Annie

A tag from Annie!

These are the instructions from Annie's site!

It’s very simple. When this is passed on to you, copy the whole thing, skim the list and put a * star beside those that you like.

(Check out especially the * starred ones.)

Add the next number (1. 2. 3. 4. 5., etc.) and write your own blogging tip for other bloggers. Try to make your tip general.

After that, tag 10 other people. Link love some friends!

Just think- if 10 people start this, the 10 people pass it onto another 10 people, you have 100 links already!

9. Visit all the bloggers that leave comments for you - it’s nice to know who is reading! *******- http://stephaniesbooks.blogspot.com/

10. Make a blogger template unique: change the background colour, or add a background picture to your header. *- http://chris-book-a-rama.blogspot.com/

11. Write positively even if the situation is seemingly negative — spread joy and not gloom. You can do it!**- http://www.aliceteh.com/

12. When you find something that interests you, write about it. Sharing yourself with others is one of the best things about blogging.**- http://jhthomas.blogspot.com/

13. Start draft posts to capture ideas for future posts, so you don’t lose track of them.- http://charmingdelightful.blogspot.com/

14. Be helpful to new bloggers. Remember when you first started blogging and didn’t know how to post a link? Or was that just me?***- http://islandlife808.com/

15. If you have a question about blogging, don’t be shy, go ahead and ask. There are so many bloggers happy to give you help if you need it.*-http://www.arewethereyetmom.com/

16. Remember that blogging is a community - don’t be afraid to comment on the blogs you read. Reach out and make new friends, you’ll be glad you did!- *http://debmomof3.blogspot.com

17. Try to blog daily, this is the only way to build up a “cyber following”*-http://mylifeasmamjodi.com/

18. Check that box on your profile so your bloggy buddies can reply by email to your comments, it makes life so much easier... and by all means PLEASE make your profile public so when you click on your name it doesn't say profile not available. There's no way to reply to you or visit you when you aren't public!* http://mylifeasannie.blogspot.com/

19. Make your blog about you! I enjoy getting to know each blogger individually and it's much easier when the blogger writes about issues that are their own! Making friends is not always easy, but when a person is more open and willing to share - it's much more fun getting to know that person - even if we are separated by miles or countries! annb - Each Day Is A Gift
