Hi Guys!
If your reading this message then you have kindly made you way to the Chatterbox boards for our first ever chat!
Here's a little detail about how the chats will work:
Monday - General Chat in the 'General Chat' thread. Thursday - Specific Chat - You guys will get to vote in a poll in the forum so keep an eye out for them in this area!
Both chats start at 8pm UK time!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The first ever chat will chat soon and to get us started here's a couple of questions for you all.........
What are the pro's and cons of blogging? If you were to start your blog again what would you do differently?

So the first chat has begun!
If I was to start my blog again I would spend more time planning my posts and probably doing a few in draft so I got to grips with photo's and wording etc before launching it. I would also learn how to do better photo's earlier and join Twitter sooner.. I was a bit behind with joining social media sites!

I would sort Google+ out, join twitter, instagram, facebook and anything I can use to promote my blog...

I would have taken more time with my photos, that being said, the first ever blog i did have, the photos were rubbish yet it had a good amount of positive feedback, so i guess if i was to start over i would be more organised and have specific dates to post etc, that way the blog has a flair and also a fluidity of posts, not just random outbursts every now and again!

I agree, I would have definitely thought of specific dates to post... At the beginning I hardly did any at all.. I feel my blog didn't really start up till a good few months aftewards really.

I also found it a little weird when I started up - when I was writing blog posts it was like I was talking on the phone with no-one at the other end! I've got used to it now thoygh obviously!

My pro's of blogging are:
- meeting new people - having a great new hobby - making friends - attending events - discovering new products and brands!
