I have been a blogger for 5 years and I have to tell you that mom bloggers rule!

I started out blogging about merchandise I created for sale and found people that were highly competitive and some that were downright nasty.

When I focused on the mom blogs, sharing my own experiences as a mom to kids who are now in their 20s I found a grateful, supporting, loving community that blew me away. It makes the term “blogger buddy” have a whole new meaning.

Love your list of things to learn as I have learned them all myself and am trying to apply them to new blogs.

Kudos on the great article!

Hi there!
It’s obvious you love what you do. ‘Being your own boss’ takes drive and passion. You have an ample amount of both! and let’s not forget professionalism, and oh yeah, understanding family!! You’re now a role model on many levels. I know you will catch up to the other Heather (Armstrong).

Thanks for the mention, Shirley! Blogging has been an amazing way for me to “be my own boss” and I love it a little too much (I always want to work overtime, lol). Happy blogging everyone!

Welcome Wendy,
I agree. Some of the most entertaining (and frank) dialogue can be found on mommy blogs! Many don’t want to use ads/product placements for fear their readers see them as ‘sell-outs’. I just read an article in the NY Times about a blogger who started a simple journal, started talking about her boss, got fired and now makes around a million per year on the blog. A blogging rock star. Her husband quit his job and is now her manager (sound familiar?). Monetizing your blog is indeed an art.
