Connecting via Blogging

As I wrote earlier this week, I am going way outside of my comfort zone to reach out to other mom bloggers to build the BlogJolt Group. I am searching high and low and hand picking great blogs and inviting the authors to join. I’ve already recieved a great and encouraging response, so it’s getting easier and easier to send emails to people I have never met. So what’s to rant about?

I am uncovering some REALLY great blogs – with NO WAY to contact these bloggers on their sites! No email, no contact page, no nothin’. Even blogging guru ProBlogger has ranted about this one recently, and I must wholeheartedly agree with him.

I know this BlogJolt Group will be big, and will offer tons of networking and value to all of our members. And there are moms missing out because I simply can’t find a way to invite them.

So take this as a lesson learned – even if you don’t put an email address on your site, put up at the bare minimum a contact form. What if I were NBC wanting to interview you? What if I were Oprah wanting to invite you onto my show? What if I was Publisher’s Clearinghouse… ok, bad analogy ;) .

Make it easy for me to get in touch with you – that is what blogging is about – connecting.
