Some Announcements!!!

I wanted to share some of these things the beginning of January but I am trying to juggle quite a few projects and it got pushed back until now. First off, I want you all to know how truly I appreciate your support and that you’ve stuck by me all these months. Since I began this blog 5 months ago, it has exceeded my expectations and continues to grow at a rapid rate every day and I have you all to thank for it! As a token of my gratitude, starting February, I will be doing a monthly feature called Subscriber of the Month!!! This is a chance for my subscribers to get their blogs some face time on my blog as I will be posting your interview and whatever you’d like to share on my blog including a link. All month long, I will additionally put your blog button complete with link under the special banner I have posted above as an example. It’s exclusive to my subscribers only as I want to reward those who are loyal and genuinely enjoy my blog. I will be taking sign ups now and you can do that by leaving a comment under this post along with your blog url. I will choose randomly to try to make it fair for everyone. I am in the process of getting a button made that you may display on your blog letting everyone know you were featured on my blog and are the designated Subscriber of the Month on Blessings Abound! I’m so excited to be able to share my love for all of you and hope you’ll want to participate. Remember, sign up by leaving a comment with your blog url. I can’t wait to start featuring you all every month!!!

I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but I am now heading up the review team for MomDot! I’m really fired up about this position and love working with all the members of the team. They are extremely talented ladies who I believe share a unique point of view and bring a culmination of diverse reviewing methods and writing styles to the table. These fine ladies include Cat from 3 Kids and Us, Sarah from Ohana Mama, Tanya from Mommy Goggles, and Bridgette from Not-So-Blog Blog. I’ll also be part of the group that brings you the Launchpad, MomDot’s new resource to help aspiring mommy bloggers reach your goals, no matter what they might be! We don’t officially kick off until February but please feel free to preview the site and while you’re there, grab a button! We hope it will be a place where we can all join in friendship, educate, and support one another achieve our bloggy dreams!!!

We all know that the Bloggy Carnival is coming up this Monday and I have loads of Blessings in store for you. I’m not going to spoil the surprise of what they are, but I promise you won’t want to miss out! One of the last things I’ll leave you with is that every Friday, you will have the opportunity to leave your links to your personal giveaways. It’s a feature I’ll be calling the Giveaway Pool as I want to promote your giveaways too! This will also begin in February once I figure out this Mr. Linky business. I do have other projects in mind that I will implement later this year and I assure you this year will be even more exciting than the last! Have any suggestions on what you’d like to see featured on this blog? Feel free to email me at akblessingsabound{at}gmail.com! Reminder before I go, if you’d like to be the first Subscriber of the month, leave a comment with your name, blog, and url. I can’t wait to give back to my subscribers!!!
