Talk To Me Tuesday: Why I Blog

blogging tips Talk To Me Tuesday:  Why I Blog

Recently I was at a blogging conference, SITScation, and the sweetest Lady came up to me and said that Tip Junkie taught her how to blog.  She was so sincere and so grateful for the blogging tutorials that I had featured and it had inspired her to start her own blog.

It was bitter sweet as it was seriously the nicest compliment.  However, in that same moment I realized that over time I’ve gotten away from posting blogging tips.  It hasn’t been intentional, I’ve just been interested in other things. {{wink}}

Therefore, for today’s Talk to Me Tuesday topic, I thought we’d all talk about what blogging means to us, what we’ve gotten out of it, why it’s not a waste of time. {{HA!}}  You never know, maybe we’ll convince a lurker out there to find her own voice and start documenting her life.  Also, if you’d like to include a blogging tip you’ve recently learned that would be fabulous as well.

Today I want you to tell me “Why Do You Blog”.  Add your URL link to Mister Linky below.

    I actually just started blogging and the reason I did is because I think so many of us have so much to offer and so much to learn from others experiences. I like to think I have a pretty humorous life and think others would get a kick out of it. Blogging to me is therapy!

    Great idea! I have so much to say everyday and this is a great outlet for me! lol Plus I think that it’s great to share with others..let them know what is going on with you. Plus if you are honest, you find so many people out there that can relate to what you are going through…

    I just started blogging and love it. I have one that is for family/friends and its great to keep them informed on what we are up to when they live so far away. My decor/craft blog is a great way for me to share the things I learn and create and just feel like I’m talking/sharing with somebody older than five years old from the comfort of my home.

    I think that to receive the credit loans from creditors you ought to have a good reason. Nevertheless, once I’ve received a short term loan, just because I wanted to buy a house.
