Getting To Know You: Gaining Followers

Is there any advice you can offer to the other readers? Leave us a comment below or send us an email at b.you.blog [at] gmail [dot] com.

Getting To Know You: Blog Help

Our main goal here at B.You is to make sure we provide you with the most current and up to date how to's and advice on blogging. Though we are comprised of a diverse group of contributors, we can't possibly cover everything out there for you so we are wondering; what do you need help with? Do you need to know how to create a blog signature and install it? Are you looking to open up an Etsy shop and need help? Are you wondering how to even blog at all? Are you thinking about introducing a paid sponsor program? Let us know what you need help with and we will answer your questions in a post. You can email us at b.you.blog [at] gmail [dot] com.

Getting To Know You: Why Do You Blog?

We all have our reasons for wanting to blog. Some of them are a personal outlet; like an online diary. That is actually why I started blogging ten years ago! I found my hand cramped less typing up my teen sorrows than hand-writing them out plus it was a way for me to store all of my daily writings without mountains of journals being stacked up. Another reason people start to blog may be because they want to document their fashion finds. Whatever the reason, it's always a good one and we want to know why you blog. 

Leave us a comment below telling us why you blog and what got you in to blogging. Be sure to leave us your blog link so we can come check you out! If it's a more personal reason, feel free to email us a b.you.blog [at] gmail [dot] com. 

Getting to Know You: Balancing

Happy Tuesday everyone! Id like to say a big welcome to our new followers from the GFC Collective we co-hosted and any new followers from elsewhere. And hello to everyone! One thing we like to do here at B.You is get to know our readers. Because we offer tips and tutorials to help out anyone stopping by based on our experiences and what works for us we want to make sure we don't forget about your needs, too. 

This week we are all struggling a little bit in finding the perfect balance between life and blogging. Myself in particular, I took the week off from Chevron Stitches and A Fox & A Wolf so I could focus on some trying issues going on with my daughter and bullying at school. Usually I am able to spend my late nights catching up or scheduling blogging, but lately I've been spending that time making a plan of action to help her out when the school just isn't. So I seem to be missing that 'balance'. 

We want to know: How do you find that balance with life and blogging? Do you take 'days off' from blogging? Do you only blog certain days and schedule your posts? What works for you? 

You can leave us a comment or send us an email at b.you.blog {at} gmail {dot} com. We will be featuring some answers in a post later on so that we can cover as many aspects of this balancing act as possible. Thank you all for your feedback! 

Getting to Know You: Topics

Heidi, myself and the contributors are all able to bring a little something different to the table in each of our posts to talk about a wide variety of topics. We write on behalf of experience and what is current. Lots of our content are our own opinions, some come from what has been proven over time, but all of it is meant to help out you as a blogger and even beyond that. Our vision for B.You is big and we, of course, want to be successful all the way around. But we can't do it without you! 

So we all would like to know: What topics would you like covered on B.You? Do you need help with blog content? Photos? Signatures? Blog hopping? Hosting giveaways? Anything! What can we write about that will help you blog for you?
