Guest Post: Branding Your Blog

Nov 03. 2010

With some social media experience under my belt (in addition to freelancing work that has led me to some top social media mavens), the topic of blogging and branding your blog has always held a special interest in my heart. In this guest post, reader Kate talks about the importance of branding your blog and chronicles her journey in re-branding. Enjoy! What do you do when your blog isn’t such a good fit for you anymore? I have been wondering about this for a while now. There were many times I would post something and think, "Wow, my blog really has nothing to do with what it's called." Usually I would shrug it off and tell myself it didn't really matter. After...

Guest Post: How I Got Out of Debt

Oct 13. 2010

Our next guest post comes from Fabulously Broke, one of my favorite lifestyle/personal finance bloggers. I always found her story inspiring and asked her to write a special post on how she managed to clear $60k in debt AND build a respectable net worth. Enjoy!

Now, approximately 3 years later I have a net worth of ~$110,000.

I know that my readers will completely understand a maternity break from blogging; but at the same time I am hesitant to put this site into hiatus mode, even if for a week. I have started to compile a list of posts that can be pre-written and scheduled to go up at any time. However, I also know that there is no way to predict how much time I may need away (I may not need any time off at all), or if I can provide enough material to sustain my "at least...

Do You Boycott?

Aug 28. 2010

Ever since I started writing more about my religious views on this site, I have gotten more than a few comments and nasty emails stating that they will no longer read my blog because they disagree with my stance on certain issues. I don't have much of a problem with readers who choose to unsubscribe — they are certainly free to do as they wish! In addition, my main objective in blogging is to write and share my thoughts with the world. Although my readership is important to me, losing readers here and there will not hurt me financially (it's not like I make money from this site anyway), nor will it discourage me from blogging. That being said, what I would...
