Here's what happened and how I fixed it! To some of you I might have been a mystery "Jennifer" with "no photo to my name" blogger. Not anymore my friends, not anymore! Here's what I did (yesssss if you thinking I'm a crazy anal person I totally am) I did this to ALL the blogs I follow to make sure blogger is using my BLOGGER profile not my blank, no photo who is Jennifer that is following me profile.
WHAAAAT??? I'm a blank person with no face?! I don't likeyyy.
Yes please, I chose my Blogger Profile but of course to "Follow" you with instead of no face to name Jennifer.
Whooop whoop hello!! Jenn@WestSacHoney has entered the blog!
So I don't know if your a no face to a name blogger but I was on ALOT of your blogs so if you see me pop up in your followers with my lovely face yup you have my boredom and anal tactics to welcome that face to a name..
Other key tips that I like too about blogging, which Aly @ Analyze This posted about recently are awesome things to think about.
We even made a trade..
I took of my in page comment posting and she removed her captcha! Ha that's only until someone spams her.. (Or not.. I change mine back!) :) JK..
Here's a few of her tips I like:
Do Not Reply Commenter: Please add an email address, I like to respond to your comments on my posts. I haven't run into this too often but if I do I get a little sad because I wanted to chat with you but I couldn't because your email address wasn't added.
Acknowledgment (AKA Commenting): Aly said it perfectly "Think about it like this...you take the time out of your busy day to sit down and read my blog. Then, you go an extra step and leave me a comment" I think about this when reading all of your lovely blogs so leave me some love and leave a comment if you stop by. I have all these followers but I only know a handful of you. Let's be bloggy friends! It's fun to be friends I won't bite.
My Own Things I Think About:
Say Hi, Introduce Yourself: If I find a blog and I decide to follow it I always leave a comment and say hi and let them know I'm a new follower! I like to know when I get new followers and love to learn more about everyone. SOOOO if you haven't already say hi if you started following me, or you follow me and don't leave comments.. SAY HI!! (Ahem... See above Acknowledgment).. :) No pressure, sometimes people aren't chatters.. I'm one.. so I like to always do this when following a new blog and a blog at any time.
CAPTCHA!: Ugh... So as much as I love your blogs.. Man CAPTCHA drives me NUTS.. I hate spelling a few random letters numbers etc I already took time to write a comment.. now I have to try to figure out this weird word.. . I have mine removed and I only have received ONE spam comment and it was some random thing about "Click here for swimsuit sales". Nothing crazy! Plus if you receive your comments via email you'll know right when you get a spammer comment so you can delete it. Just a suggestion.. Since I love you I push my dislike for captcha aside and still leave you love! :)
Okay that's it.. I'm off to stuff my belly with some of my honeys tri tip sandwiches!
P.S. I have an UBER yummy, FINGER lickin' good recipe for tomorrows Whatcha Makin Wednesdays! Be sure to stop by.. ESP if you like RANCH! and chicken!
Tootles! Adios.. Till Tomorrow!
16 Lovely Notes:
Ooh I cant wait to see your recipe tomorrow! I havent ate yet and I'm starving, your killing me with the tri tip sandwiches talk ugh, lol!
Well said, dear! And funny...I HATE captcha, too! So glad I removed it for you! And I won't change it back....you don't change yours either!
Okay FINE! I will remove the word verification thingy for you!! Sooo glad you added your picture because I've been wondering who that random no-face follower is... JOKING!! ;-)
And I'm just like you-- when I start following a new blog, I HAVE to just say hi and introduce myself, ha!
Hope you have a great evening, girl! :-)
i freakin' hate captcha too! and i feel like i never had the "hi i'm a new follower" conversation with you! oops!
<----guilty on that one!
hahah, i really do think your blog is great though and i love following.
Hey Jenn! I don't remember if I ever commented to say hello when I first started following....so, I just wanted to say hi! I've been following your blog for a little while now, and I think it's adorable. :)
I totally understand with you. A lot of times I dont have time to read everyones blog but if I do read it it takes two extra seconds to comment. I dont mind that. I always let people know when I am new follower. I like to know new people.!I like when they let me know they are followers.
Hahah definitely cracked up reading this!! Great tips lady :)
Hi!
I have been reading your blog for a while now but never added myself as a followered...I decided today to finally add myself as a follower. Thanks for writing a creative, fun blog!
xo
my picture hasnt been showing up either! guess I need to do that! ohh cant wait to hear the recipe!
I'm a new follower, hi!!
Glad you have a face now Jenn!
Ok, ok I'll remove my stinkin captcha for you too :)
Hey! I post comments all the time but never really said "hi" I'm a new follower so hi! :)
Arghhh I love you! I hate that freeking spam thing and have been dying dying to get it away. We should start a campiagn so every blogger gets rid of that captcha thingy aha :D
xxxxxxxxxxxx
I hate when I hit the reply to a comment and it says no reply! That's so frustrating! Glad you got your photo fixed.
hey hey! I just wanted to leave you a comment so you know that I'm following you now! :) have a great weekend. p.s. I love the blogging tips from you and Aly!
I thought now would be a good time to introduce myself! I have been reading your blog for a while, but have not commented. Is that totally creepy of me? Anyways, I am 26, from Canada and I can not remember at all how I came across your blog. But I love it! I love the fitness Friday's. they keep me motivated!
Just thought I would say hi!
