Blogging Advice

Many of us in the work at home world have ventured into the world of blogging. By now, many of you have become quite knowledgeable of the blogging world and have learned many tricks of the blogging trade with thousands of followers reading every word that you post. For those of you that are somewhat new to the blogging world, I've recently come across a great article offering blogging tips that are filled with various ways you can get new readers to your blog. Each blogger has a different way of doing things, however this article gives you some of their own favorite ways to get your blog out there and to get it seen by the masses. Even though I have had this blog up and running for a few years now, I have read through this entire article and tried a few of her tips. Check out Singing Through the Rain's article titled "Blogging Tips". If you leave a comment, let her know that Crazed Mama sent you, and good luck!

Beef and guacamole, surprisingly great together


Guest post written by Kathy White

I love to come up with all kinds of fantastic food combinations to make together. A lot of the time I'll combine stuff and not let my kids know and make it into a guessing game. I take this as an opportunity to also get them to like all kinds of food. I used to be a picky eater when I was a kid and I don't want them to miss out on great stuff because they're the same way.
I like to go online with our Clear Bundle to look up all kinds of new food combinations. It's amazing some of the stuff that people will put together into dishes.
The latest one that I came across is this guacamole beef recipe. Never, ever in my life did this occur to me that you could put those two things together and they taste so good! This was one of the times when my family had no clue of the food combination so I just had to go ahead and tell them. But they told me I should fix it again.

Make Lists: Get Paid!

I am loving this new website I came across not long ago. It's called List My 5. The name says it all. You make a list of your top 5 things. It can be anything! It can be your top five favorite movies, your top five favorite animals, anything you wish to make a list about you can do. You then get paid a share of the ad revenue that is generated from your lists via paypal. This being said, you should try to make your lists interesting enough that others will want to read your list. Here are a couple of my lists so you can get an idea of what this site is like:

Top 5 Ways to Relax and Alleviate Stress

Top 5 Things to Do on a Snow Day

You can make them funny, you can make them serious, you can make them informative, you are free to make whatever kind of lists you want. It is actually fun to do. TIP: If you write articles on other websites, you can write a top 5 list around a specific topic and then link to your other article. This way, you may get traffic two ways!

I wish I had more time to dedicate to this website because I really enjoy making up random lists on here. You don't have to worry about editors critiquing your work here, you are free to do whatever you like.

Leave me a comment and let me know if you have had any luck with List My 5!

Follow Me This Way!

Since I don't update this blog on a daily basis, I wanted to remind my readers that you can also follow me via Twitter <----- click link. I use Twitter for a lot of different things. You can follow me if you would like to read some of the other articles I write for money, or to find out what else I'm up to. Send me a shout out and I will return the favor!

Facebook. My favorite place. Who is addicted to fb, too?? This is my fb page for this blog, go there and "like" me because my likes are really kinda sad right now, can ya help me out? Leave a comment and let me know that you came from here! I haven't done a lot to promote my fb page, so I'm assuming that's why I don't have a lot of likes yet (or am I just really that boring?).

Will be posting again soon!
