Blogging help? Really want to do daily blogs!

[k8ylooloo]

Afternoon fellow mumsnetters!

I have been researching for a while now on how to set up my own blog - mainly focusing on being a mommy, life with a toddler etc. I use this site so much and read so many blogs. I have so much to say and I need help saying it lol. I use wordpress mainly for the few blogs I currently produce but want to focus more on 'mums world' writing.

I have set up an account on the Blogger Network and have added my URL to be reviewed? I hope that is correct. I take it mumsnet review what I write (which hasn't been much so far) then agree to me blogging?

It's all so confusing! All I want to do is write/receive some comments etc. surely it cant be that difficult.

Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated!

From one mommy to another! Thanks in advance. xox

I don't know about the MN Blogger network, but if you want to post daily don't feel you have to write daily. WordPress gives you the option to schedule posts, so you can write two or three times a week but still update the blog daily.

Also, it's best not to use xxx in your posts here. We don't do that kind of thing.

Thank you so much for your advice. Very much appreciated. I didn't realise the friendly 'xxx' wasn't used on here. I know when I comment on other posts where moms are seeking advice they generally share a smiley or a 'x'. I will keep that in mind! Would hate to come across to OTT.

Thanks again!

No problem - it catches a lot of people out. We do use smilies :) and other emoticons though.

You don't need MN Blogger network approval to blog, the network is just the tool to promote, so keep blogging. And if they don't like what you'r writing, well, it's not the only tool to promote your site. Oh, and keep in mind - so many reports about blogs not added to the network fast enough... it looks like they're quite backlogged.
