afternoon light #12That’s it really – are you a blogger who runs a business aimed at women?

Whether it’s aimed at mums, women in corporate life, whatever, as long as it’s aimed at women, I need to know about you.

You could be a training company, a jewellery website, a resources portal – whatever you are, as long as you’re aiming at women I need to know about you.

Why? Because I’m going to be compiling a list, that I’m going to broadcast quite a lot, and it might be good for you to be on there :)

You know the ones:

“Nice blog”

“I agree”

“You’re right”

On the face of it they’re innocuous comments, don’t really upset the apple cart, and show that people are reading your blog (allegedly, although not always).

3 things a day can help to promote your website

Eternal clockOne of the things I hear most often when I talk to people about promoting their websites themselves, is that it ‘takes too much time’ and they ‘don’t know where to start’.
