Last week I asked you to offer our community your 10 best blogging tips in an attempt to win Lorelle VanFossen ’s book: Blogging Tips

Thank you for those who took part in this competition, your tips will no doubt come very useful to both new bloggers and established bloggers. You certainly all know what you are talking about!

Looking back on your submissions I struggled to find a clear winner as you all had fantastic tips but after a while Belinda’s 10 blogging tips stood out:

1. Create a nice and clean design for your blog
2. Keep your blog clean looking no matter how widgets and funny stuff might seduce you
3. Create a distinctive logo and use it in your blog and everywhere else
4. Create unique content -don’t cut and paste unless you’re a collagist like me!
5. There is life beyond blogging-live the life and get inspired from it
6. Answer every comment you get
7. Blog about something you have passion about…and knowledge.
8. Think of blogging as sharing something not earning something
9. Enter Fuelmyblog community!!yeh!!!
10.Get me to draw you a very nice banner or a logo…

I liked her view on the fact that we must have a life outside blogging in order to fuel our blogging life with fresh materials and a fresh outlook. Some really great tips!
Belinda, you win!
