Extraordinary Blog Network Members

Below is a detailed list of other bloggers and what networking opportunities they are open to having with other bloggers. Peruse the list for blogs in which you would be interested in writing or have them as a guest blogger on your blog, and then when you find one you like, contact the blog owner.

Please note that I also have included the option of writing only or for publishing only. I realize that we all have different situations, and this gives bloggers the option to find good fits for their needs.

To help spread the word and let other bloggers know how to participate with you, we ask that you place this banner on your blog within 3 days of being accepted:

Network Directory

Please click on the heading titles to sort the table for any category.
Tag: A few words to describe the blog type.
Contact Owner: This is the best way to contact the owner. If you need to copy and past the e-mail into another e-mail client, please be sure to use this subject title: Extraordinary Blog Network Inquiry
Write: This indicates if they will write articles for your blog. “R” indicates if they require reciprocity (you must write for them, too).
Publish: This indicates if they will publish your articles on their blog. “R” indicates if they require reciprocity (you must publish for them, too).
New, Published, Both: Indicates the type of articles they prefer to write and/or publish.
New=Articles written specifically for your blog. This does not necessarily mean it would be an exclusive article. It just means that it was written more specifically to fit in with your blog. The author always retains all copyright to any articles that they have written.
Published=Articles that they or you have been previously published but will give you permission to publish on your blog with credit to them.
Both=The are good with either new or previously published.
Reciprocate Comments: Member will leave a comment on your blog if you they see that you have given them one and have the Extraordinary Blog Network banner on your site.

Also, please keep in mind that a blogger may not always be able to participate. Sometimes time just does not allow for extra work, and we all go through those times. Keep in mind, though, that the whole point of this is that everyone contributes on some level – even if that does not mean each time. If you are a busy blogger but still want to participate, it might be a good idea to have at least a collection of articles that other bloggers may publish on their site. Another option would be to sort the list alphabetically each week or month and connect up with the the two – three blogs below your name. That would change it up for you, too, as we add new blogs. We just want to make sure that everyone benefits and still be mindful of time constraints.

We have some ideas of some things we can do to help keep things moving and vary it up for everyone. It should lots of fun for everyone! We will keep you posted!

Wouldn’t it fun at the end of the year to have some fun “best blog” contests after we have had a chance to get to know each other and read each other’s blogs?

About the Author

I am a professional photographer who lives and works from her heart. My goal is always and in everything to be better today than I was yesterday. I’m an ordinary person dealing with what I like to believe are ordinary issues, but in all the ordinary days, I want to live an extraordinary life. I am the mom to two grown sons, and there has been nothing I have loved more than being their mom and being home with them. And while you are always a mom, there is a certain part of that time in my life that is over now that they are grown. I miss hearing them play and having them with me all the time and having all their friends over, but it is time to move to the next stage of life or at least trying to figure out what that is. I am making a list of personal goals, connecting with friends, and still nesting even though the children are grown. I think I will always be a "nester". Home is where the heart is. I love home and love making it a healing place of peace and comfort.
