Welcome to the world of blogging. AR has so much to offer as long as you put forth the effort. Hang in there - we all are in this together!
Debbie & Rick-
Welcome......don't know if you got there yet, but on the top of your tool-bar is a search button. anything you want to know is there. Just type in the subject you're interested in and a list of the posts will appear. There are some good ones on how to post, etc etc......
Set yourself some boundaries for this as it really can consume your time :)
Hi Debbie & Rick,
Welcome to Active Rain! There is tons of information and wonderful people here, hope you enjoy! :)
Debbie and Rick,
Welcome to Active Rain. This site consists of a whole lot of people feeling the same way as you do. You will notice that the same people show up almost daily with great blogs. While we all aspire to be like them, not all of us are prolific writers, and not all of us have the time. Active Rain is different in that it has managed to be both a professional and personal networking site. If you read others blogs and comment on them, some ideas will start forming and you will start blogging. Don't be upset if, at first, you do not get a lot of comments. A lot of people only comment on the same people each day and do not venture out, but after awhile, if you keep at it, you will make friends, get referrals, and best of all (to me, anyway) hear from some of your clients.
My most fun times are when one of my clients "quotes" me to me! If you want, you can join the Active Rain Newbie Group where a lot of people have contributed their views and some have come up with guidelines and tips for blogging. Whatever you do, enjoy it:)
Joey, Thanks for your words of encouragement. I agree AR is a powerful tool. I have already learned a great deal here and implementing a lot of new things, but Rome wasn't built in a day. Debbie
