Gosh I might have second thoughts ....

The last Meme I did I thought I had done it correctly, I got a comment from the author( it was neither rude nor thoughtless) of the Meme about my link not being correct and her not getting a ping back from it( I'm Truly sorry for that). I felt bad, and felt if the link was wrong, Fix It! OK, So I corrected it, my bad! .I went over for a visit again to really look at the Blog and while I was there I read some of the back posts and I'm not sure I want to continue Blogging. I mean, I make ALL the mistakes she talks about in different places in my Blog. It seems I am not the brightest fish in the pond.....I seem to "ramble", well according to the blog author's post about How to overwhelm your visitors. People don't like to read rambling. I go on and off subject to much, I use strike too much , I don't care I like it and think its easier to read than me fumbling around trying to figure out how to make jokes or word it just right, I also have posts that are way to long, according to her people don't like that. well I did do one thing right, I have a pleasing color combo!
In fairness to the Blog, it is well written, The author is very SMART, you can tell that by reading the Blog. She also gives some very valid hints, tips and just common sense wisdom and in truth I enjoyed my visit there.
Although I was left with a feeling that my blog was everything she said was wrong in a blog LOL LOL......
The blog author also reviews blog for a price of 60$ now I had been noticing ads on blogs for reviews, some costing 35$ 45$ and even 60$ , I'm sorry, I personally think a person shouldn't have to pay for a review and if they do it should be a very reasonable price. You can get great reviews of your Blog by being polite, commenting and making friends or just being noticed if you have a really well written Blog......my Blog is read by some of the best Blogger's in the world . Just look at the people that have given me awards or the places I visit and comments I get. They are really great Bloggers and I have not had to pay anything. I also think that if you join places like Spicy pages, Fuel my Blog and Technorati you have a better chance of being noticed by lots of people willing to read and review you blog for free, plus you get the added benefit of reading some really great and well written Blogs.
So if you don't want to pay for a review get out there comment, make friends, interact and people will notice... Of course that IS my opinion and mine only. I never started blogging to be ridiculed by people or for my blog to be perfect or under the scope. After all it's all about ME!. I started Blogging to clear my foggy brain, I found that I have something to say (so some say) and I liked having a place to come and just ramble! I must admit the Awards and the comments make my day. I love having recognition, its good for the ego.Some of the Blogs that have looked at my Blog or at the very least given it some much needed attention is: Christy's Coffee Break, If you have not been to visit, Please do she is a really sweet writer who offers so much more than just a Blog. When Bill Blunt "Big upped me" I thought I would die, I remember crying and thinking WOW! That part is good for the soul and makes blogging fun. I am a huge Bill Blunt fan. I have met some really great people who have offered great advice, One of them is Shinade, at The Painted Veil She set me on a path to writing a really great blog, that just about anyone can read. She is a really great Friend. The next person I would like to recognize is fracas, at one time she was my ONLY reader, can you imagine that just one person read my blog for months! She always came by and looked at my cakes just to drool, She always left me little comments and I just LOVE her Blog, She is a hoot! I love Fracas because she never gave up on me or my little Blog. Another site I just love is Blogs we Love , They review blogs for free because they like the blog, but the best part is you get to read Blogs you might not have found if not for them. Speaking of Blogs we love, They are doing Blogathon 2007 this year, Blogathon is an annual event where bloggers come together to blog for their favorite charities. They are donating to The Glaucoma Foundation so go make a pledge and help make a difference for someone in need .You will get that warm and fuzzy feeling I promise.
The friendships I gain makes it worth the criticism's I get. So if you don't like a Blog, Don't leave a nasty or rude message, just hit the huge X on the right...... Just think before you say something because you never know how powerful your words may be.....
I like my Blog and I hope you, my readers do to, I will keep pecking away at the keys and try every day to make it worth coming to read. I am after all the Queen of Sweet......
Peace!
