Amy Sterling Casil tagged me for the chain letter-like meme started by Heidijane at Adventures in Bookland. It's the Blogging Tips Meme.
She says, "When this is passed on to you, copy the whole thing, skim
the list and put a * star beside those that you like. Add the next number (1. 2. 3. 4. 5., etc.) and write your own blogging tip for other bloggers. Try to make your tip general.
After that, tag 10 other people. Link love some friends!"
Just think - if 10 people start this and the 10 people pass it on to another 10 people, you have 100 links already!
Here's the list. If I've tagged you -- you know who you are!
1. Look, read, and learn. http://www.neonscent.com/
2. Be EXCELLENT to each other. http://www.bushmackel.com/
3. Don’t let money change ya! http://www.therandomforest.info/
4. Always reply to your comments. http://chattiekat.com/
5. Link liberally — it keeps you and your friends afloat in the Sea of Technorati. http://chipsquips.com/
6. Don’t give up - persistence is fertile. http://www.velcro-city.co.uk/
7. Give link credit where credit is due. http://www.sfsignal.com/
8. Pictures say a thousand words and can usually add to any post. http://scifichick.com/
9. Visit all the bloggers that leave comments for you - it's nice to know who is reading! http://stephaniesbooks.blogspot.com/
10. Thrown in something humorous occasionally, to keep things fun. http://bonniesbooks.blogspot.com/
11. Make it easy for your readers - use tags and labels and keep it simple! http://caribousmom.blogharbor.com

Sometimes, less is more. Step back and look at your blog - is it too
busy? Are there enough pictures to make it interesting? Think about how
a visitor would perceive your blog - making it visitor-friendly will
help get you return visits. http://mrstreme.livejournal.com

Keep in mind that people might be using a feed reader (Bloglines,
Google Reader, etc.) to keep up with your blog. This means they see
your posts, but not that gorgeous new design template, or your
completely redesigned sidebars. So if you change your blog's "look and
feel," write a post about it to let everyone know! http://laura0218.livejournal.com
14. Keep all your sidebar links up -to-date, maybe check them on a monthly basis? http://adventuresinbookland.blogspot.com
15. Remember that nobody "edits" your blog except you -- and your readers. http://asterling.typepad.com/incipit_vita_nova/
16. Do you posts five times a day then avoid the blogosphere for a week? Use your posting options and set it up to spread those posts out! Going on vacation? Your readers won't miss you if you have something for them everyday. http://dandyfunk.typepad.com/dandyfunk/
