BTW – Sometimes I find out that one of my posts about puppy mills gets to someone who isn’t in the choir (it happened just recently) and as a result that person adopts a rescue dog instead of buying another dog from a pet store (where they had gotten their previous dogs). There is nothing more rewarding.

I’ll have to explore that option – thanks! I’ve been fairly lazy with the cupcake blog lately – posting every day for a month on the main blog hasn’t helped with that! I need to get back on track with the baking. I have some recipes/photos ready to go, but just haven’t put the posts together. I think I need to give myself a posting goal (not daily, but at least somewhat regularly). However, maybe Squidoo would be a better fit. 🙂

Great post!

I think of you every time I open Squidoo. There’s always a beautiful cupcake post featured on the main page.

I think it would be a good home for I Still Want More Cupcakes and easier to manage than a regular blog.

Just a thought…

I think that’s a great idea. I also like to read blogs on a variety of topics. But I don’t usually post links back to Something Wagging unless it’s an animal related blog.

But just because someone isn’t writing about animals doesn’t mean they don’t like them or aren’t interested.

You are very clever!

I hope you’ll update us on how posting the Timmy Stones project worked out on Pinterest. I’m seeing lots of people using it. It looks like StumbleUpon for girls. 🙂

My idea was just to provide a taste. But maybe this should be my regular contribution to BTC4A. I’m not expert in animal welfare and have so much to learn from others here.

Maybe I should consider using my “weird thinking” to focus on ways to get the messages to new audiences.

You’ve give me an idea. Thank you.

Thanks, Sue, for your kinds words. But I learn things in this blog hop so I find it worthwhile to participate. And it keeps me encouraged to be part of the effort.

Luckily when we’re in a community, we don’t all have to do every thing, every single time.

This is your day to look at Beryl and say to yourself, “This is my day to give lovies to a rescued Greyhound.” That and your work with GAP do so much good already. 🙂

There are certainly no end of ways to do marketing. I don’t think we all need to adopt every platform. But most of us usually find one or two that feel a good fit.

And you’re right. The rewards are tremendous.

If you like funny words, you’ll probably love Squidoo. Every work you type as a spam catcher is made up and has something to do with squid. It’s cute and clever.

Squidoo was founded by marketing god Seth Godin. It is very time consuming but it works well and is very stable. If you haven’t read Seth Godin’s stuff, he preaches the virtues of getting people’s permission to send info, building community, and making things easy. Squidoo does all three.

Even if you never write a lens, Squidoo is a fun place to lurk.
