New blog ring
« on: March 28, 2011, 07:01:20 AM »
Hello everyone!I am going to help with the blog ring.I no Kimberly deserves a break.She does so much to help all of us8)I am new to all of this so please be patient with me.If you  decide that you want to continue featuring our talented group of artists  sign up here...but there are a few things to consider before signing  up.

-If you sign up you are committing yourself to feature one  HAF artists per week for the entire run of the ring.  This is open to  any member of the forum no matter where they sell.  I give you all the  basic info as far as the name of the featured artists and their blog  info and often times their shop info.  Your job is to check out their  blog/shop/etc and write up a feature.

-Your next job is to read  other members articles!  Leave a comment for the author on each blog.   This increases the exposure for both the featured artist and the  bloggers.

-If you can't keep your commitment, please let me  know.  I will pull you out of the ring; no hard feelings, I understand  that life gets busy (boy, do I ever understand!) and that time gets away  from you.  I am only concerned that we had people that signed up and  were not participating and then I have to deal with the messages talking  about how they didn't think it was fair to feature someone not willing  to feature others.  I do comment on all the features and watch which  members are participating and which have dropped out but I would rather not have to track people down, and feel bad about messaging people like  the blog police  :police:

I  will leave this open, and as soon as we have enough people to make it  worth while, I will begin a new ring...so watch this section of the  forum for the new info.

If you have any questions about how this  works, please ask!  The more people that participate, the more fun (and  exposure) for everyone!

I am definitely interested.  You can count me in :)
My blog needs some attention too! I just had my 1st giveaway on my blog and only 6 people entered.  I buzzed the crap out of it too!!  Twitter, FB, Stumble, LinkedIn, all that stuff....and only 6.  Pretty Sad! :(

Here's my info.  I'd love if you all came and followed me on my different places. I'll follow/fan you back! :)

Hello!
I'm very sorry to not be able to participate in the blog ring, I have too much happening right now :(

However, a friend passed the Stylish blogger award to me and if any bloggers would like me to add your blog's link to it I'd be more than happy to, no strings attached, which means you don't really have to go by the award rules unless you feel like it.

You can check it out here: http://rasamalai.blogspot.com/p/stylish-blogger-award.html

I've never participated in one either but seem to always be trying to find something new to blog about so this may be a great opportunity for me.
