Blogging advice or a short bloggy quote:
“Making you look good: That’s all I’ve ever done and all I ever will. Not that you don’t look good in the first place — the opposite is true — I will make you look even better. Who wouldn’t want to look better, especially when given an exact plan and the means to do it.”

Blog Tagline: Beauty Inside & Out
What makes the blog worth visiting?
Darla is an all-American Iowa girl. She’s all about family and friends and having fun. She is wife to the Chief-of-Police for almost 16 years (and if there was a category in high school for “least likely to marry a cop” she would have won that hands-down) and mom to an 11-year-old boy. It’s all about the testosterone at her house!
Currently she works from home as an accountant and also as a silver power seller on eBay. Decorating, saving money, and finding STEALS is her passion. She and her husband also build and flip houses for “fun.” (HA!) Darla shares her successes as well as mis-haps (cuz Darla is all about the mis-haps) with you all.
Blogging advice or a short bloggy quote:
Share your mis-haps as well as successes. People like to know you’re for real. Even when it’s extremely humbling. LOL!

I share my experiences living with cerebral palsy to motivate and inspire others to think about how they perceive their own situation and their own world around them. I do all this by typing with only my left thumb!

There is much information, many strategies and courses, and countless (and often conflicting) opinions on how to become a successful blogger. In the end, it is your passion, your integrity and your readers. Read, learn, listen and ask questions, and then do what feels right for your blog.

Blog Title Jewneric
Blog URL: http://Jewneric.com
Blog Tagline: A New Platform for the Jewish Voice
What makes the blog worth visiting?
Jewneric is a Jewish blog which brings together a global community of diverse personalities to create a new forum for the Jewish voice. By calling upon so many talented individuals in a variety of fields, Jewneric is a source for news, opinion and entertainment. Through its content, Jewneric creates a platform that encourages conversation and provides both the outlet and the tools necessary for our community to discuss the topics they feel most passionate about.
Blogging advice or a short bloggy quote:
While content is king, 80% of success is still just showing up. The reason Jewneric decided from the outset to be a group blog was to allow for the constant flow of original content. The more talented people we brought on board, the more often we would get new articles and the more often our readers would return to the site. This has proven to be true. We ask our contributors, now over 60 from around the world, to write about what they want, so long as it sticks to our theme: Somehow Jewish. We also ask that they write around once every two weeks. We don’t pressure anyone, we aim to ennoble and motivate our team to be passionate about writing and being consistent with their efforts. Slow but consistent growth over the past year has helped grow Jewneric into a Top 25 Jewish Blog.
