Red Rose

I was surprised and honored when I received the Blogging Elegance Award from Rolando of the Rplayground. He gave it to me a little over a week ago. He received it from Hawk’s Place. I’m finally getting around to sharing this lovely gift with other bloggers.

Shibumi

 

I enjoy visiting all my blog buddies but I have to admit that I’m always happy when I see bloggers sharing a bit of their world through pictures. I’m awarding Shibumi to the following bloggers. I can always count on them to share something beautiful.

  1. Andree of Meeyauw
  2. Mike of Mike’s Photo Blog
  3. Beth of Eclectic Studio Cafe
  4. Pete of My GPS Camera Phone
  5. Silver Creek Portal

Thanks everyone for adding beauty to the blogopshere! :-)

Following Hawk’s request if you give this to someone please link back to the giver (in this case it would be me) and the originator Hawk’s Place.

I’ve received a few more awards over the past few weeks I’ll be handing them out over the next few days. It’s been a busy week so I have been able to do too much blogging.

The Importance of Branding Your Website/Blog

Alright so you want to increase your website traffic. Did you know that it’s important to focus on how you are branding your business or blog? This year I decided to change my focus on Vegan Momma but I was unsure of the direction I wanted to go. Finally about a few months ago I decided that Vegan Momma should be a community type of blog.

I write about a lot of different topics and encourage participation from the readers that make up my community. Since I’m not writing just to read what I have to say I decided that I needed to change my approach to blogging. Surprisingly the approach I used was the same approach I use when interacting with my customers.

Brand Management is extremely important. The way I brand myself has been extremely effective in my business my approach is similar on my blog. With my business, I do a lot personal interaction with my customers, and I try to do the same with my blog readers. There are numerous ways to show appreciation to my readers. I make a point to visit my I bloggers virtual homes, I regularly stumble articles that I know others will appreciate.

To increase my reach I regularly visit new blogs and participate in numerous social networks, etc. Making a good impression is important I try to do this by responding to comments left by my readers and visiting them at their homes. I want them to know that I truly appreciate what they have to say.

What Would I Change At Allinanchor.com?

  1. Open the comments up so anyone can comment. Not everyone wants to register.  Your readers are your clients.  Make it easy!
  2. Make the articles longer - Some of your readers might be newbies to internet marketing.  They will appreciate articles that will walk them through some of the steps needed in being an effective internet marketer.
