Yes! Terrific! Thanks for posting these! I think this was an excellent session. I was there too (again, so funny we never met) and one thing I really walked away with from the entire conference was the power of blogging karma. That might be the topic of my next post… once I get done visiting and commenting on other blogs…. oh and I stumbled this post. I am a novice with that (gotta read your post about that too) but had to do it since this is so darn helpful to have in one place… and, you know, blogging karma and all that, right? :wink:

We met (briefly) at the Newbie party at BlogHer08 and I bumped into you several times thereafter, but unfortunately did not connect more than that.
Thanks for a great recap of all the great information shared at BlogHer–very helpful!

I think I may have a Twitter account – just never did anything with it. This is all great info Kacey and I am glad to have it. I am curious about how to make a blog pay. Any info on that? I am not expecting to ever support my family, but I would not mind bringing in a bit of dough every so often.

Thank you for sharing the advise. Some things I knew and some things are new to me. I am always learning from others. Thank you again.

Great advice. I’ll have to sift through and do a lot of thinking. I started my blog as a way to keep a journal. I only invited close friends and family. As I found other blogs to read I would comment and a lot of them linked back, some have stayed and I’ve made some new friends, which I am very thankful for. And I have to admit that every time I get a comment from someone new, I get a twinge of excitement that someone else liked what I posted. But then I have had a couple of the blogs that I read who stopped blogging or quit allowing comments because they felt like they were doing posts to please other people and not for themselves. I don’t want to let that happen. I need to find a happy medium between, doing the blog for me, and finding a nitch in the blog world that draws more friends in and possibly makes me a little extra money.
Now that you have way more info than you wanted. Have a great day and thanks again for the advice.
*hugs*
