How am I doing



TIP: While it might bother you not to use punctuation in your title it is important to leave it out so that google will not pass your post over! I know it bothers me too! 


See this rainbow that was in my yard the other day? It made me smile. It is the small things in like that add up and make one feel whole and happy. 

I am certainly happy with how my blog is coming along. Blogger shows over 17,000 page views now for it! I am up to 4k fans on facebook and about 2500 on Twitter. 

TIP: Work on your Twitter followers, Facebook only shows your post to a few people on your fan list! 


I wanted to share something with you all that has had me rather pissed off. Someone I know in short basically told me that blogging is useless and no one reads it. I had brought it up as I know the person has no job and needs work and I know they could make money blogging. It would have been fine to say that they are not interested, I mean I would make nothing from it if they did, I was trying to be helpful. Instead they insulted something I have come to love and that I know does in fact have value. I have reviewed hundreds of dollars worth of items and sites and I had just pocketed $300 for a few moments of work placing some sponsored links on my blog for a company and that blog is still only Google Rank 2. 

I wanted to bang my head on a wall talking to that person. 
That person is just flat out wrong says the products I get daily and the pay I get as well! 

The time of the bloggers is NOW. 
We rule the internet connecting brands to readers and readers to social media and social media back to brands. We are a strong part of the web connected to so many things for so many reasons. Your voice does matter and people are reading, or at least they will once you learn what your doing. For that matter more will read my blog once I fully figure out what I am doing. Thus this blog, so others can learn from my mistakes and hopefully from this blog learn faster than I have! 

Happy Blogging!
