Hello, friends! I am thrilled to tell you that I have been invited to co-host this fabulous weekly blog party along with 5 other amazing bloggers. Please follow or visit my co-hosts and come join the fun every Sunday on Ava’s Alphabet. The party opens on Sundays at 12PM EST and closes on Wednesday at 2PM EST. If you are not familiar with the concept of a link-up party, you are in for a treat. This is an opportunity for bloggers to add a link to a post or two from their blog that they would like to get more people to see. It might be their latest work or it might be an older post that needs renewed attention. If you are a blogger, it is a great way to drive traffic to your posts and to build relationships. I have met the most amazing people during my short blogging career through link-up parties. If you are not a blogger, a link-up party is a great way to look at a variety of creative ideas and thought provoking articles all in one place. I hope you will come and explore the amazing posts each week.
Let’s get this party started. Please remember that this is a link up for family, kid, recipe and DIY posts. We welcome you all to Link Up Party #20.
Now, lets enjoy a great party this week, and remember sharing is caring!
