networking

Blog Fame. They say that you're supposed to grow your followers and views of your page. How do I do that? I asked. Conveniently FAQ had me covered. {Side note: I feel particularly unique when my question does not appear in the Frequently Asked Questions. I like it. Is that weird?}
To grow your audience, you must read, comment, and follow other random bloggers in your "niche". The ones that have been offered to me are probably really cute for a particular family. But to me, reading the cereal box would be more entertaining.
It worried me that everyone seems to have something to say. But I always felt that what I have to say is of the utmost importance and anyone who missed reading me is less than a modern human being. I must admit, my confidence wavered. I need some validation...some real neon lights to let the people know that I'm not just another voice in a sea of murmurs.
So help me---
 1. Am I as awesomely exceptional as I think I am?
 2. What is my "niche"?
 3. How do I rise above "just a blog"?


I was considering creating some kind of buzz event and unveiling something special. It would take a concentrated effort from ALL of you. Let me know if you're game and I'll put you on the list.

  1. If my blog is as entertaining as a cereal box, I'll take that as a compliment. Melissa used to spend a half hour reading cereal boxes while she had breakfast.

    I read this, I'm just a bad commenter. I am what is known as a 'lurker'. Practically nobody comments on mine, yet if I go 2 weeks without blogging, I start to get phone calls from my biggest fans (you know, Aunt Louise & my mother). ;) Keep writing - you are talented.

  4. I am your mysterious follower. It will not let me upload my photo, keeps saying to large. I guess I have a big head.
