WOAH. Jump back! A weekend post up at HLB!? Filled with random photos we took of some of our members at HLS 2011? What’s the deal?
Let me explain:
We wanted to stop in one extra time this week to have a little conversation. See, the other day I was updating the email we send to welcome new members to Healthy Living Blogs, and I realized it has been quite a long time since some of you joined the community yourselves. And, since things around here are always a-changing to keep it fresh and growing, we decided a little “this is what you may not know” chat may be in order.
There’s a lot going on at the site and we hope you take some time to dive in and explore what this great community is building here. There are bunches of ways to get involved with the community – [and hopefully many more new ways coming to you in the future!]
Let’s start here: you can send in announcements to be included on our Monday Announcement posts, write a guest post for Healthy Living Tuesdays, and promote your blog by linking up in the Recipe Round Up each Wednesday. I encourage you to click over to all those pages to learn more. At the top of each post, you’ll find more information on each.
Be sure to visit on Thursdays, too! Our popular "Blog Tip Thursdays" feature posts from you guys, HLB Members, and you’re proving you really know your blogging stuff! Sharing tips, tricks, suggestions and tutorials for how you can blog better, smarter, and more efficiently. If you want to learn the good stuff, spend some time going through the BTT achieves to see what we’ve covered so far. If you have a topic you’d either like to see covered on BTT, or you have an idea of a post you’d like to contribute yourself – send us an email at healthylivingblogs@gmail.com – You guys always have the greatest ideas!
Come the end of the week, we are also offering each of our [over 1500!!] members a featured post on our Friday Features. It’s a great way to learn about your co-members and find great new blogs to add to your favorites lists. If you haven’t yet received one, stay tuned for an email requesting your own survey information for the feature in the future! Please be patient, there are a LOT of awesome members on the list!
The weekends around here have been fairly quiet, but we like to use them for posts like this, and other special events, announcements and general information needing to find it’s way to your eyes. In the near future, we are hoping to do some more in depth discussion on what we’re doing with HLB and cover even more ways in which you can get involved.
WHEW! That was a lot of information, and I feel like we are just getting started on all the fun coming up this year at HLB. Keep your eyes peeled for all the goodness coming your way via http://healthylivingblogs.com. You can also follow us on Twitter, like our Facebook fan page you can find more of these crazy photos there!], and be sure follow our Healthy Living board and Blogging Tips and Tricks board on Pinterest. [Is it clear that we want to connect with you on OH! so many levels!?]
Any questions? We can’t wait to see what you guys are going to be submitting on HLB from here on out!

Team HLB
P.S. As for the random photos? Just a little bit of extra fun for the weekend.
