Still being a new store blog writer (I have years and years of personal writing), I feel like I muddle my way through sometimes.
It is fun to write, but I don't always feel like it. Do I buy advertising? Do I not? Do I have giveaways? What do I write next? Well, this weekend I have been bitten by the advertising bug and decided to go for it. I decided that I would buy some ad space on some of my fave blogs, as well as set up Google AdWords.

I started with
thePaperMama. I mean, how could I not? She has this incredibly cute daughter, fun DIYs, donations for causes and great posts about her everyday life. Other bloggers...don't worry, I have plans to buy space from you too! She was the first I followed, so I felt like I should get space there first. I enjoy reading through my Google Reader List every day and look forward to making some more blog friends.
Then I decided to take Google up on their $100 in free advertising. I setup my text ads yesterday and I am set for the month. I have liked Google products from the start, so it just made sense for me to try them out. I am not yet sure what I will do when the $100 runs out, but what I do know is that I will continue to contribute to other blogs.
How did you decide what you would do with your blog?
At this point I'm in a low or now cost stage. Still trying to build some loyal followers which might be easier if I advertised but hey whatever.
