Welcome to the world of blogging. Whether you are a hobbyist looking for a place to share your passions, or a pro looking to build a social media empire, it pays to consider the future early on in your blogging career.

What’s in a Name?

You’ve deciding to become a blogger and share your taste, pictures and musings with the world. The next step is to pick a title.

Keep a note pad handy in the early days and jot down your ideas.  For me, I knew that I was passionate about fashion and that I wanted to market myself to moms.  I started dreaming up names that got this message across loud and clear.  Since I didn’t want to limit my blog to just fashion, I thought “trends” was a better term.  I could safely talk about baby gear, décor and other things that interest parents.

After I picked my theme I go busy doing research.  I started googling potential names to make sure I wasn’t infringing on any domains (for the most part, there is a blogger code of ethics that bloggers don’t poach titles).  Don’t get lazy! The Google search should extend beyond the first page! Dig a little deeper to make sure your clever title will be yours alone. more

I am constantly receiving questions from new bloggers on how they can start their own review or PR friendly blog. Here on The Work at Home Woman, I do review business and career related products, but since my niche is more focused I end up turning a lot of PR companies away. For this reason, I decided t0 recruit a couple of savvy mom bloggers from the blogging community and get their input on how to become a PR Friendly Blogger.

So today I have Amy Oztan from the blog, Selfish Mom and I also have Amy Bellgardt from the blog, Mom Spark, here’s what they had to say…

Holly – How did you get into PR blogging?

Amy Oztan – It was totally accidental.  I had been blogging on someone else’s site about my brownstone renovation for a couple of years, and because of that a friend of mine recommended me to the NYCMomsBlog.  From that website I started getting opportunities to work with brands, but writing about them were against the rules of the NYCMomsBlog, so I started SelfishMom.com.  At first it was just a hobby – my “real” blog was FilmingInBrooklyn.com, which I started around the same time as SelfishMom – but I discovered that I really liked writing about products and doing reviews. This really wasn’t too surprising, since I was always the person that everyone would go to pre-blog for recommendations.  I always had a subscription to Consumer Reports and would research products for friends and family. more

I can’t believe that March 19, 2010, will already be The Work at Home Woman’s 1 year blog anniversary!

To celebrate this momentous occasion I am looking for sponsors to donate some prizes for a fabulous blog anniversary giveaway! Sponsors will be heavily promoted through giveaway posts, in the March newsletter and on the various social networks.

I am looking for prizes that are geared towards business savvy women and mothers…tech gadgets, lap-top totes or hand-bags, coffee makers or related products, organizers, time management products, gift certificates, coaching related services, business related books, and more personal products geared towards women like jewelry, bath and body, etc. more

If you Blog it they will come.

Sometimes this statement is true.  Other times it feels like a frustrating game of chance.  I started Blogging in 2008 for fun and wasn’t really concerned about how many hits I got or who was following me; I Blogged what I wanted, when I wanted.  My content reflected my personality and I thought that would be enough.

I was wrong.

Blogging is addicting (I’m sure a support group isn’t far off).  I soon became more and more aware of the number of, or rather, lack of hits I was receiving.  So I started doing some research into Blogging.  My biggest question was…

“…what were others doing to make their Blogs a success?” more
