For people who don't know how to say no, maybe a blackout will help, but learning to say no permanently will do a lot more.<br /><br />Whether or not bloggers do a lot of press releases and reviews will influence their readership, of course. I choose not to read most blogs which promote things on a regular basis. Sometimes the amount of promotion I see on others' blogs makes me feel like they've lost their voices. But it's their blog and it's every bloggers job to figure out what to delete and what to post based on their own goals for their site.Mrs. Micahhttp://mrsmicah.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3878649115694692418.post-69084585685579697222009-08-05T16:42:01.362-05:002009-08-05T16:42:01.362-05:00The actual issue stems from women taking on too mu...The actual issue stems from women taking on too much all the time. They feel obligated, they feel competitive, they want to succeed online, they don't want to hurt relationships for the future.<br /><br />Our point was to simple recognize that many groups of women DO feel that way and its ok to take a break...a lights out sort of thing to regenerate and evaluate what you are doing online. <br /><br />I think there has been some harsh criticism, but truly, it was just a week..LOL<br /><br />Sometimes women do need support to think that its "OK" to step back and we wanted to provide that to the section that did feel that way. <br /><br />Its certainly not for everyone, nor are we asking everyone to commit or be involved, it was simply for the part of our community that stressed their interest and somehow the word got out...and its been....well, chaotic. <br /><br />Our blog is there only to support and help the women that ask for it. We like to live and let live.<br /><br />:-)<br /><br />trishaHaasiegirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17922061510146257818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3878649115694692418.post-61757477075156785892009-07-18T20:34:44.736-05:002009-07-18T20:34:44.736-05:00I agree with you.

While I don't read straight contest or giveaway blogs, I don't mind PR.<br />Of course, the pr pitches I get are always ones I don't want.
