Housekeeping Post
I have a wide variety of announcements to make, so I figured I would throw together one post and make them all here. 
First >> Don’t forget that I have a contest going on until April 14th. To enter, just link to my site using my keywords, and you can win gift cards, books, or EntreCard credits. Check out that post for more info!
Second >> I am backed up on my book blogger interviews, so if you have sent me your answers and I haven’t responded yet, don’t take it personally. It’s been crazy trying to get caught up. I am getting quite a bit done today though, so you should hear from me soon. If you are a book blogger who is interested in being interviewed and spotlighted on my site, check out the link above for more info.
Third >> EntreCard is doing some funky stuff on their end right now with this new ads thing they’re rolling out. I honestly don’t know how much longer I’ll stick with them. If you come to my site using EntreCard, I’d suggest either bookmarking my site, signing up for my RSS feed or email notifications, or following me on Twitter. I’m not positive what’s going to happen on that front yet, but there’s a good chance that EC will be dropped from my site.
Fourth >> I am going to do a Medieval Week here on my blog in the next month or so (I haven’t figured out the exact dates yet) and one of the posts is going to be linking to other sites and their medieval-related posts. I am very excited about this!
Examples of the types of medieval posts I am looking to highlight:
- If you have written a book review about a romance novel that takes place in the medieval period, send that to me.
- If you are a costume maker and you wrote up a post about a beautiful medieval costume that you made, send that to me.
- If your whole blog is focused on medieval stuff, send me the link to your blog.
The above is just examples - there is a whole lot more that would qualify. If in doubt, send away! Please send me an email through my Contact Page, so I can keep track of this - please DO NOT just post a link below.
Fifth >> I have put up a new poll in the left side bar so be sure to check that out.
Sixth >> Because of great demand, I have put together another SEO post, this one telling you how to optimize your site. If you have not read SEO for Book Blogs yet, go check it out now. And then continue your SEO education by reading Part Two. Whether you run a blog for fun or for profit, you will benefit from these tips, I promise.
I think that’s finally it!! I’ll be back tomorrow with another book review. Have a great day, all!
