Friday Follow Means Reading w. Purpose
Jul 23rd, 2010 Posted in Friday Follow | 17 comments »Friday Follow memes have been a great way for me to find new blogs every week. Granted there is nothing wrong with visiting the same blogs day after day. Three of my favorite blogs lately that are not on my sidebar are Hyperactive Lu, Natural Baby Goods, and the new Oh My Sugar High baking blog!
With these and so many other fantastic blogs sending newsletters each day, it takes a bit of an excuse to get me to seek out new ones. The great thing about Follow-Back Friday Linkys is that I can use the excuse of gaining new followers as my reason for reading all these new blogs.
I follow the blogs that I like and hopefully they follow me back. At the same time, just for participating I have new people checking out my blog. I love my loyal readers, but they were all new at some point in time. Just the same, every blog I read regularly was once completely new to me.
Usually when I read a blog entry, all I get is a bit of knowledge about a person, product, or promotion and sometimes an entry into a giveaway. When I read a blog from a Friday Follow Linky, I am also finding new people that I may have something in common with. I am gaining followers, and hopefully a few friends along the way.
