    I did have a blog 2+years ago, but I got bogged down with uni work and completely forgot about it. Now that I am uni work free, and basically jobless (I work 6hours a week :cool:), this will keep my occupied in the free time I have during the week.

    Yea, I find spending time on a blog post seems much more informative than one that blurbs with one paragraph. It's not helpful to potential readers, and kinda a waste of time for the person who wrote it lol. I'm in the middle as I write for another blog, regarding my hair care.

    I too am following you so I will keep an eye out for your blog posts

    PS: Don't suppose you know the best way to circulate a blog?? . . .:dontknow:
    I update regularly, as it seems to attract more people. I sometimes use exposeyourblog.com but this only seems to work if you want hits, i've used it for a few months and I've only gotten about one follower this way. I think a good way is to comment on more popular blogs of the same genre and link to your sight at the bottom. Also include a link on your facebook and twitter page. You can connect the accounts too so they automatically post a status update if you post on your blog.

    Ps have you tried making a page for your blog on wikifashion? I've only just signed up for it myself, so I can't really tell you how effective it's going to be. But i've gotten a bit of traffic from it so far. Just something to consider, I suppose.

    Ooo never heard of that, will sign up to it. Thanks.

    PS: I have set up a youtube account, but haven't quite built up the courage to yet do videos! I think I'll see how the blog goes first before going to the next step.

    You're both welcome. As I said, i've only just signed up to it so I'm not sure how effective it is, but hopefully it'll get some traffic.

    Good luck with the video blogging, DancinBallerina. I've never done anything like that before, but I hope you build up the courage!

    Awww lol. Nope, haven't managed to do it yet, as I am trying to link my hair care products to my hair routine. But can't quite figured it out. Hmmmm. I think I'll take a break from it, get some food and return to get my head around it. If I manage it, I'll post so you know for future reference.

    I think I am becoming slightly addicted to this blogging :ninjagirl: lol . . But I enjoy it, and watching people's channels on youtube .

    Thank you, that would be useful for future reference. Hopefully you manage it soon, are there any tutorials for it on google? Is there a special widget that you need for that? I've seen widgets underneath people's posts with 'links'.

    It is enjoyable the more regularly you do it I find. I didn't post as regularly during December/January time and it was hard to motivate myself again.

    I've recently created a blog - here, it doesn't really have much on it, so it's probably quite boring at the moment! I'm going to focus on beauty products and tips etc and I would really like some feedback from you guys and maybe a little help with making it look a little more interesting as I'm pretty new to Blogger.

    Thanks :-)

    You need to change it from 'blogger' to 'blogspot'

    The amount of times I have done this. Haha
