Put on your party hat and dancing shoes. It is party time with Janice and Susan from 5 Minutes for Mom.
Janice and Susan are two wonderful friends that will always hold a special place in my heart. I first met these two lovely ladies back in 2008, during my first Ultimate Blog Party. I continued to party with them in 2009, 2010 and 2011. You could call me a Ultimate Blog Party Veteran if you would like! What exactly is the Ultimate Blog Party?
The Ultimate Blog Party is just that — the ultimate place to party and meet new friends, (but no babysitters, airplanes, or tickets necessary.)
It is super easy to participate — all you do is write a party post on your site, sharing a bit of what you and your site are all about. Then you hop off to the main party post at 5 Minutes for Mom and add the URL of that party post to the applicable linky list so others can find you and “meet” you and your blog. (There are also linky lists for your Twitter and Pinterest accounts.)
After you have posted and linked up, start partying! Blog hop your way through the linky lists, leaving comments and making friends as you go. There are also live events again this year — a Twitter party Monday, April 8 at 9pm Eastern and a Google+ Hangout Tuesday, April 9 at 9pm Eastern. We will be talking blogging tips and tricks, answering bloggers’ questions, and giving out prizes.
I am looking forward to joining in all the Ultimate Blog Party fun during the next week. I hope you will join in with me and meet new awesome blogger friends. The blogger community was so much different back in 2008. It would be so nice to see the tightness of the community come back and real conversations begin on our blogs and on twitter. Are you up for the party fun? Of course you are!
It really was much different then wasn’t it. I’d love to see us get back our conversations and true interactions like we did back then.
