My new series is called Blogging Myths, and we'll be discussing some of the inaccuracies that can pop up and confront you when you blog.
I'll be compiling the link for each post in the series here so that readers (old and new!) can refer back to this post when checking out the blog:
Myth #1: If You Blog It, They Will Come
Myth #2: Blogging is an Easy Money Maker
Myth #3: The Words Aren't Important
Myth #4: Any Old Photo Will Do
Myth #5: Blog Design Doesn't Matter
Myth #6: Everyone Loves Controversy
Myth #7: Snarky Anonymous Comments are Okay
Myth #8: Linking Back Isn't a Big Deal
Myth #9: "Big" Bloggers Are So Cliquey
Myth #10: Blogging is Never a Distraction
Series Wrap-Up and Blogging Resources

I'm kind of curious!
How about the myth that blogging is easy...I've had so many friends start a blog. After 3-4 posts they give up. It's HARD finding something to write about over and over again!
This is going to be a good series. I'm looking forward to reading all about myth #1.
I loved the Commenting 101 series and found it to be so helpful in pointing out things I had never even thought of in leaving and responding to comments.
Can't wait for the myths...you are adding all sorts of intrigue this time with the teaser post! :)
I agree with the myth that it's easy. Or that you'll start out right away and make money from it. :)
xo
sounds interesting amanda! just a little tease to start out :) coming soon to a blog near you.....blogging myths :) haven't been around again because of weather in our part of the country but hope i'm back now and can read up on all the blogs i've been missing!
Looking forward to it Amanda!
Can't wait :)
Looking forward to read the new series Amanda!
I just finished reading and learning all about commenting 101.I learn so much. Now I am looking forward to following your post on blogging myths.
I loved your last series and look forward to this one. I await with baited breath!
dun, dun, dun....can't wait!
Can't wait!
I'm so curious! I loved the commenting series and I'm looking forward to what you've found to share this time around.
Looking forward to it! :)
Wow, what a great topic! I'm curious and can't wait to see what you have in store for us. I really enjoyed the commenting series. :)
It's *not* easy - I can come up with a lot of ideas, but I just get tired, or something fails, or I find out somebody else did it "yesterday," or I feel guilty that I'm not spending enough time with my family. But honestly, I still love it. :)
Looking forward to it--you've made me curious! :)
Can't wait to follow along.
I'm guessing that Myth #1 has something to do with MONEY!!! And that you can get rich by blogging (and btw, if you figure out how, let me know - haha)
Can't wait! I can think of a few common myths so I'm anxious to read what you write about for #1!
Ooh, I'm intrigued! Loved your last series and can't wait to follow this one, too. We have to wait until next week?? (she whines)
:)
What a great idea for a series! Can't wait, you rocked the commenting series... I'm betting this one is gonna be good, too! ;)
I'm definitely intrigued! What a great idea for a series!
Ooooh...can't wait for this series!
oo you've got me excited! :P hehe
Can't wait to hear these!! : ) Love your blogging series, it's so nice to hear some input from another blogger! xo
sounds like another great series!
Just read Myth #1. This info is so useful to me as a new blogger. I goofed on the day of the week you were doing this in my "Help for New Bloggers" post. I have corrected it. The links you provided were great, too. Can't wait for Myth #2.
Good Morning Amanda! By now you probably think I'm stalking your blog. ; ) I just saw your link on facebook and thought I'd check out your myth series. Wow, some good info!! I read through all the post you've done so far. Being new to blogging, I love stumbling across helpful advice. Can't wait to see what you write about next week!! : ) ~ Catie http://catiescorner2.blogspot.com
It is nice to have you write a series about the myths surrounding blogging. I was also contemplating to write a series with the same theme in mind. I wrote a long article with explanation to all the myths I came around in relation to blogging. Here is the article Top 10 Blogging Myths that bloggers fall for.
Hi! I just read all your myths...1-8! Thanks so much for sharing! You are amazing! Great stuff :) I'm a newbie so this was perfect
I am new to blogging and found your blog myths series really helpful (especially the info about link backs). I will definitely be following your blog in the future for more tips and suggestions. Thanks!
Hi Amanda,
I just finished reading your blogging myths series and I loved it! As a new blogger I am so thankful for the tips you shared. I am guest blogging for Modern Alternative Mama on Dec. 19th and I am very excited about it!
