You are too funny.

Re 2 blogs...

We all should have our own blog that is connected to our website maybe a Wordpress blog so that traffic you bring helps your website ranking with google.

A central blog like Blogger likes it when you draw traffic, as it benefits Blogger for ranking not necessarily you or your store or your website.

Blogging within the icraft blog helps ranking for icraft and your store especially when you place lots of "rich" links within the icraft site.

I f you are not ready to make a solid committment to blogging icraft's blogging facilities are the best bet for you because at least there is someone else looking after the maintenance and technical issues and you have the benefit of your fellow sellers "pooling" their blogs on this site.

Also there is an "import" button so you can bring in a copy of your blogs from your other site and I guess duplicate them here (or you can customize them a bit).

I don't know if I have explained that 100% correctly but that is what I have figured out in my rereplacement. I am working on moving my blog from Blogger to Wordpress.  I have no problem sharing my posts between the two blogs.... at least so I have some blog presence on icraft.

You are right... there are many nut bars  on twitter! and everywhere else too.  Do what you feel comfortable. I most often use a pic of my chief pillow fairy... she's so cute. I look mean and bossy with bags under my eyes and droppy lids... argggghhh what a mess... until I smile.  Same for you... I am sure you are beautiful when you smile.

I followed Lynn Terry's advices in "How to write a blog..." ( http://www.clicknewz.com/1993 ) when I wrote my latest blog post. Took me a little longer than usual but I guess that's because I'm still not use to it:) I like it - and will watch closely how it does in terms of traffic in the next few days:)

The post is called "What to Buy a Jewelry Maker Lover for Christmas?". Check it out for some great ideas Smiley  http://verredesign.blogspot.com/2009/11/what-to-buy-jewelry-maker-lover-for.html

Have a wonderful day everyone!!

I'm not worried about the nut-jobs I don't know. I'm more concerned about continuing to avoid the ones I DO know!

p.s. Do I look droopy in my photo, lol? (In plenty of them, yes, but that one, I was too pregnant-and-all-aglow to droop!)

Anyway, good points about the blogging issues, thanks.

Okay so I copy and paste to 3-4  blogs whenever I write. I  start on my personal web page and move to other sites from there.
Works Ok for me..not sure how many people REALLY read them but that is where bootcamp kicks in.

I find I have to keep it short, sweet and too the point.
I am trying to appeal to visual people..they like to look quickly and get out.
Too much text and they don't rad it anyhow...that I do know.
Same with the newsletters I send out.
I think they are very informative and people tell me that just look at the pictures for the most point.

Blog Ideas:
1. I love finding other cool things that are online and showing them off. I like to help spread the word for other sellers and artists if I can.

2. My blog is a great place to show what is new and coming before I list it.
It is like a little "preview".

3. Events and spreading the word on what is going on in the community.

I like all the other ideas too that the others have suggested.

BTW- when I try and use my icraft blog for my blog URL-it won't let me no mater how many times I try.
