Description:

this was taken from @cittylou back in 2009

I am running this swap again at is was interesting and fun last time, but this time there are less partners to send your link too, to ease the task a little!

For this swap, you will send to each of your partners your blog web address (via Swap-Bot messaging ONLY, to avoid you not receieving the links in an email) The intention of this is to gain exposure to your blog and hopefully gain regular readers.

Then you can each browse/read your partners blogs in the hope of gaining regular visitors.

Please comment on the blogs so you partners can rate you. Please included you swap-bot username in the comment.

Any blog is fine be it creative blog, diary blog, career blog etc, This is an email/blog swap so it is naturally international, and it is open to everyone.

Happy blogging! :)

Networking is key to this blog!! Its great to make blogging friends.

Newbies welcome with a complete profile!

TO CLARIFY: You send the links to the partners ur assigned to. You rate them on if they sent you the link.

PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS SWAP AS A METHOD OF ADVERTISING UNWANTED WEBSITES THAT ARE NOT RELEVENT TO THE SWAP. BLOGS ONLY!!

Catra 04/ 2/2013 #

samash 04/ 7/2013 #

Are the blogs only in English?

Catra 04/10/2013 #

@samash It would help if it was in english or has an english version.

TamaraEpps 04/14/2013 #

It is against the rules to state in a swap when a swapper should or shouldn't give hearts. I would join this swap but won't unless you change this.

mommyistatted2 04/15/2013 #

what about youtube channels?

baberaynebow 04/22/2013 #

I too was wondering if youtube logs would count

baberaynebow 04/22/2013 #

Vlogs I meant. My V key was sticking

Catra 04/22/2013 #

@TamaraEpps its removed.

@mommyistatted2 and @baberaynebow I never had a Vlog even though Im a youtube member. I would say yes as long as its not offensive.

Catra 04/22/2013 #

one more thing to @TamaraEpps It was a copy and paste so im sorry about it being there but it has been removed.

baberaynebow 04/23/2013 #

I would like to hope this not offensive stipulation extends to blogs as well. A vlog is no different than a blog other than instead of writing and showing pictures you are talking on video. Maybe it was not intentional but the way you sad that made it seem like you see vlogs as something less and likely less than acceptable. Yes, there are many offensive vlogs but there are many offensive blogs as well.

Lamont1989 04/25/2013 #

This is a good idea :) I was wondering how many blogs can one person have?

abbyaguas 04/27/2013 #

can I post my blog here?

Catra 04/28/2013 #

@baberaynebow sorry the offensive is for blogs as well and yes I will accept vblogs.

Catra 04/29/2013 #

@abbyaguas You can post it in comments if you want others to see it but you have to also sent it by messages for ou partners as well.

mermaidery 05/ 1/2013 #

You say offensive. I curse in my blog. Would that be considered 'offensive' to you? I know it may be to some people, but I'd like to join, but how offensive is OFFENSIVE for this? lol.

Catra 05/ 2/2013 #

@craftyish I consider offensive if you post adult themed pics and if you curse a lot. I saw your live journal and I don't think it considers offensive in my book.

inskydiamonds 05/ 4/2013 #

I'm confused by the directions.

Do I send my blog link to the people I'm assigned to send to? Or do I send my blog link to the people assigned to send to me? Are we rating for the comments or are we rating for sending the link?

How the requirements of the swap are written is confusing. If it's clarified in the swap requirements I'd like to join :)

Catra 05/ 4/2013 #

You send to your partners ur assigned to you. you rate them on if they want are not

fawnscrafts 05/12/2013 #

Ok if there is not place to leave a message on the blog, could we leave on on the swappers profile page in the comment area?

I like this idea because I am trying to get more blog time fro my poor old ignored blog.

Rapunzel 05/13/2013 #

Are youtube channels relevent?

Rapunzel 05/13/2013 #

Disreguard my comment, i found the answer my bad.

smadronia 05/14/2013 #

I don't know if you've considered this, but what about blogs that make you create an account to comment? I know tumblr can be like this, and I don't want to have to make an account on someone's blog to be able to comment. Is that a consideration, or are you keeping it so we may have to make an account on someone's blog to comment?

QuilterinMotion 05/16/2013 #

This is a great idea BUT I am not joining simply because I have use a wordpress platform and I often show as a No Reply Blogger and I often cannot leave comments on blogs. I might not be able to leave a comment on one I received to review so I'm out.
Have fun with this one, guys and gals. It should be fun!

MiniQuilt 05/17/2013 #

This is Diana MiniQuilt- I'd love to do some e-mails. Someone asked me, but I don't know what to do so I can get started with 5 things and be approved to be in this community. I am having trouble getting this 'swat-bot' place working for me. My name is Diana MiniQuilt My e-mail is [email protected].

sammiecooper09 05/22/2013 #

i got one reply back so far and that person is not even on my list to be able to rate...infact none of them match up...what is up with that?

rosedzi 05/22/2013 #

It can't work that way because the people you send your blog to are not the people who you reply to their blogs and send to you so they are not the senders. You have to rate the people who send you their blogs. That's how the system works.

sammiecooper09 05/22/2013 #

okay thanx. the instructions kept mixing me up so badly...lol

Jbrooks351 05/22/2013 #

Ugh this has become very confusing overnight so I thought we just sent the link or links via swapbot message and that was that. I don't understand the rating system the host is saying to do.....The people who send to me are not rating me...only those I send to are rating me. I was under the impression that if they sent their blog etc then they kept up to there end of the swap....

Magena22 05/23/2013 #

If anyone else is interested in checking out my blog, it is http://childrenatplay2.blogspot.com/ :)

Catra 05/23/2013 #

I got confused myself. Just sent the partners your links and rate if they sent it to you. I will work on the details for part 3. sorry about that guys

Catra 05/23/2013 #

I haved opened part 3 and its clear on this one. i am so sorry about this guys.

MiniQuilt 05/27/2013 #

I just read all the messages, and does this list tell me who my 5 partners will be? MiniQuilt

TC 05/31/2013 #

MiniQuilt, at the top of this page, there is small yellow box with a link that's titled "See the partners you send to." Click on that and you will get their names, addresses, and SB user names so you can private message them your blog link.
