It’s that time to share some cool blogs you should be reading. Finding new blogs to explore is so contagious and fun. I love exploring different blog styles and how people present their material to the world and their readers. I started a series called, “Blogs of the Month”, where every month I will share a list of blogs that I discover to pass on to you for your reading enjoyment.
Today, I just wanted to give props to some blogs that I have been reading and I hope you’re able to expand your reading habits by checking out these unique blogs. Some you have already seen and some you may haven’t, either way it shows my taste and how I crave variety, do you? Check them out, you might just find something new to subscribe to!

Sonia,
Thanks so much for the shout out.
It is funny how you say I am everywhere commenting on blogs. Last month and the year before that, I was nowhere to be found on other blogs. But I decided 2012 was going to be different. I was going to leave my comfort zone. I was actually going to start guest posting more often. But my eye caught a blogging contest over at ProBlogging Success with Jane Sheeba. I decided to enter. One way of getting points is to comment on Comluv sites. So i went crazy!!
At first I felt I was using these poor bloggers blogs for my benefit. But let me just tell you, I NEVER leave a crap comment behind, I always try to leave something for the conversation.
I commented a lot.
But then something happen….something awesome! I met some amazingly wonderful people! This contest I am in has become more of a side effort for me. I now feel I want to comment to keep up with my new found friends and their blogs. The contest is just part of the fun.
So I find it funny that you mention I am everywhere. I didn’t know anyone would notice and I never knew these great things would happen just from one contest. I am so happy!
Thank you so much for the kind words, especially the part about me being determined. I never thought of myself that way, now I can.
You made my weekend!

Hey Allie! You are very welcome and your comment is even more inspiring. Allot of new bloggers don’t know to get traffic to their blog and these were great tips. That is how I started too and I met some awesome bloggers along the way myself. That’s the beauty of commenting on other blogs; you get to meet and network with bloggers that no only teach you something, but also give you an enormous amount of support with your blog and other business ventures. Giving back and helping others is priceless and I am happy to have learned that from you and others. Thanks Allie!

Sonia,
You make me feel so good! Thanks!
You are right. Many new bloggers, heck, some not so new also, wonder how to get traffic. I didn’t know that the commenting would get me such a great response. All bloggers should get out there and share their words.
