    I love having my blog, only had it just over a month and it's still very small on readership but it's more for me to put some energy into something I love rather than gain money/'fame'.

    Have you considered adding your blog url to your profile?

    We could ALL read it then. :eek: :rotfl:

    What's your topic?

    I blog because I love it! Not fussed about advertising or doing reviews - just writing and posting photographs!

    Haha, I may do! Primarily nail art, but also general beauty and baking :) Bit of a random mix but it's the two things in life other than photography that I really enjoy!

    I started a blog just to vent really. Ive had 757 views since March. This morning I had this message ' Fine along with your permission allow me to grasp your feed to stay updated with approaching post.' from something called direct to consumer. Is it spam? Spam is usually filtered already. Just wondered what it was all about. Thanks

    Hi Lizzie, I get comments like that all the time - that would be spam! May be worth updating the spam filter. What do you use?

    I love blogging! Mine is a personal blog, mostly revolving around running and fitness, but my own experiences as a slightly dumpy 26 year old. Started it for fun, but I now earn a few hundred pounds a year in advertising and I get sent quite a few products to try as well in return for a review. It's not a second income, but it is a fun way of earning a few pennies, but it can take a while to get to this stage.

    It's A.kis.met. Not sure if it's any good, but this is only the second spam comment to get through. It would be good to earn a bit from it though that wasn't why it was set up. Will have to look into it.
