Hello my lovelies,
You’re gonna have to forgive me this week for not being as active online as I usually am. I don’t mean to boast or tease, but I’m on a snowy vacay :)! And although I would love nothing more than to spend my entire holiday glued to my laptop, I have a” cool” reputation to maintain lol ;).
But if it makes you feel better, I’ll have you know that I’ve had that guilty lump stuck in my chest all week for my lack of TLC vis-a-vis nittyGriddy.
Needless to say, that with all the walking, shopping, eating and… I didn’t get much reading done, and these few articles are what I was able to squeeze into my semi lazy and action-packed days. Well, better these few, than none at all – I suppose.
Now, some of you already knew that I was taking a little trip, but for those of you that didn’t know – damn! I just gave you a reason to make fun of the girl who goes on holiday only to take her PC with her. So sad!
But in my lame-ass defense, I couldn’t possibly leave you without a SuperPost Sunday to enjoy ;)! Talk about dedication eh? Conclusion: passion trumps passiveness every time!
My New Guest Post
On another note, I have a new Guest Post that’s out at Traffic Generation Cafe. It’s a bit long – obviously. It’s entertaining – of course. And it’s loaded with useful information – undoubtedly. So once, you’re done here make sure to go visit the awesome “Tzarina of SEO” – Ana Hoffman – who was kind enough to host my latest article, Blog vs Website Faceoff – 8 Simple Reasons for Why Blogs Kick Ass.
And so…
“Without further ado and blah blah,” here are this Sunday’s SuperPosts on Social Media, Blogging Tips, SEO, Internet Marketing, Traffic Building, Online Money Making Tools and more.
There may be less than usual this week, but they still kick ass!
HAPPY READING :D!
