Blogging Tips Meme

Jill will probably fall out of her seat when she finally sees that I carried through on being tagged for the Blogging Tips Meme...been a long time in coming and a very worthwhile meme as you get great tips in the process.

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 etc....and if you are tagged by me, that would be lucky number 13) 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 and the 10 people pass it on to another 10 people, you have 100 links already!

2. Be EXCELLENT to each other. ** http://www.bushmackel.com

3. Don’t let money change ya! * http://www.therandomforest.info/

6. Don’t give up - persistence is fertile. ** http://www.velcro-city.co.uk

7. Give link credit where credit is due. **** http://www.sfsignal.com

8. Pictures say a thousand words and can usually add to any post. *** http://scifichick.com

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

10. Thrown in something humorous occasionally, to keep things fun.*** http://bonniesbooks.blogspot.com

11. Sometimes, less is more. Step back and look at your blog - is it too busy? Are there enough pictures to make it interesting? Think about how a visitor would perceive your blog - making it visitor-friendly will help get you return visits.*** http://mrstreme.livejournal.com

12. If you enjoy a blog and want to make sure that you don't miss anything, sign up for bloglines or RSS feeds. http://knithappened.blogspot.com
