I have added a new page to my blog layout. I was struggling to fit all the blogs I love on my blogroll on my sidebar. The limit was 25. This sounds a lot, but boy there are some great blogs out there! I was having to rotate them around so I could put all the ones I love on for a period of time. So I have created a permanent page which I will begin to list all the blogs I visit on a regular basis . If you want some blogs to lose yourself in, head on over here.
I am also encouraging my followers to follow on Bloglovin. It is a great way to follow your favourite blogs and you can easily import all the ones you follow from Google reader. All you do is click on your name, settings, scroll down to other and click on import blogs. You then select google reader and they all come chugging over to join you - perfect!
I love the layout of bloglovin. You get a clear list of all your blogs you follow and you can group them into categories so they are easy to find. I know , I know Mrs OCD again. As soon as one of your bloggers add a new post they come onto your home page with a large picture and some text. It is so clear and I find it very easy to navigate. You can opt for what e.mail updates you get. I have one update a day of the blogs who have posted and an e.mail when a new follower joins.
You can check it out here and follow me on bloglovin here or by clicking on the link in the right side bar.
Instagram is a great way of keeping up to date with people's daily lives. I often put snapshots of things as they occur during the day on here, but have only recently started to use it regularly! I will be keeping account of our house extension as it progresses on Instagram so if you want to follow along you can follow me here or by clicking on the link in the right side bar.
I can't believe it has nearly been a year since I started blogging . I have decided it would be a good time to host my first Giveaway to celebrate this.
So I shall be posting about that next week - I have been gathering some delightful items together and am restraining myself from keeping them! Open to US and UK readers.
Have a lovely and not too wet weekend.
