If you are a new poster on the forums, the first five messages you post have to be approved by an Admin, either Anji or myself, so we can stop the spam we get. After your 5th post, you will not have to wait, they are automatically accepted and put into possession. Some come on over, read and post!! ;)
As a reminder, another way to surf the blogs is to go to the "Tools" page, then click on "Blog Viewer". This will give you a list of 10 blogs to click on, that will rotate through the blogs until you are "done". You get the same credits as you would if you used the surf bar.
You should remember to read the news on the bottom of the left sidebar of your tools page. It may very much be to your benefit!! ;)
We gave grown by several members this week, and you should be seeing even more new blogs now!! Remember to comment when they catch your attention!
Happy Surfing!
Best of times!

Still Ticking!
We have had a decent growth spurt this past week, and some new blogs show up! This is good! Please keep up the great work of advertising the site and in using the site!
Surfing has been up and down this week. Over all, we may be a bit up though, for the first time in two weeks! Again, keep up the great work and remember, surfing at least 35 blogs a day (not counting games and cash awards pages) gives your blog the best chance of being seen!
In an attempt to remind you of the forums and with the desire for you to help us grow our community, I have placed the Forums as the first site you see (this does count as a "blog seen" for that desired 35 blogs/day goal!) each time you open up the surf page. If you sign in and click the mark to keep you signed in, you should see any new messages since your last sign in by a red marker on the right, making it easier to stay current "with the news" and comments of the community of surfers! Please do make sure you have an account, have it set to remember you, and keep current!! ;)
We are just under three months away from our 2nd year anniversary! Keep your eyes open for the beginning of the celebrations which will include cash and credit bonuses for those that participate! SOME of the notices will only be posted on the forums, so you may want to start staying up to date as to what is posted there too! Some will be posted here in the newsletters, and some may be posted in the "news" section on the bottom right side of your tools page! Keep your eyes open!
Happy Surfing!

EYB! Burrrrr, its cold out there!
Howdy Folks,
Its cold out there, so I have been surfing more myself of late. (Doesn't hurt that I'm off for the past three weeks, and at least the next two weeks with my knee...) Our numbers are down a bit as to the number of people surfing, but the people surfing are shifting some. Would love to see all 500+ members of ExposeYourBlog! come back and surf at least 10 a day, but even better 35 or more sites a day! Would broaden our scope of blogs significantly and get our numbers up!
We have had a few new members and blogs this past few weeks though, so that is good! More is always better though, as it broadens our reading (and commenting) pleasure, and gives us the desire to come back more often!
Unfortunately we have several "stale" blogs. By that I mean blogs that haven't been updated in over 30 days. The current policy is to leave them in rotation until they use up their credits, but I would love to see many of them get update (and their owners to surf even more!).
Hope to see you and your blog(s) on ExposeYourBlog!
Happy Surfing!

2012 Starting Out OK!
As we approach the middle of the month of January, we have had a decent showing on the surfing, but it could always be better. There are a good number of blogs, that are current, the have come out of rotation because the poster has not surfed to keep their credits up, and enough people are surfing now that the credits will go pretty fast. So, if you haven't surfed in a while, there is a good chance you don't have any credits left for your blog to be seen, come on back and surf! If you have been surfing, I encourage you to continue surfing! ;)
The forums are pretty lonely of late though. Basically it has been just Anji and myself there... Would love to see us grow as a community and communicate with each other within the forums as well! Come check them out, post your comments, replies, etc. Let us get active in the blogging world again! ;)
I had surgery this past Tuesday and am on a forced leave (vacation) for the next several weeks, and not supposed to do a lot of walking until after the 26th of this month, which means I will be by the computer a lot this next two weeks or so, and for several weeks after that as well. If you have any problems or issues with the system here, let me know and I would be happy to work on them (problems), and clear up any issues as well.
Happy Surfing!

EYB! Happy New Year!
Hello
Anji, Touwe and I would like to wish each and every one of you a Happy New Year in this new year of 2012! May this be your best year yet, both in your blogging and in life in general!
For an easier way to keep track of your link, you have another option that gives you better statistics. Go to your Tools section, and go down to "Personal Account" then click on "Ad Tracker". Click on "Add New" and put your blog link in the space provided and save it. Then take the link that is provided below that that says "Random Rotator" be the link into your blogs section in place of your existing one. once I, Anji or Touwe approve it, it will be in rotation providing you a bit better statistics on your rotation stats.
If you are a paid member, with more blogs available for rotation, you can put the same number of blogs in rotation within your rotator. Then, take the least important one out of your blog rotation, and put the above mentioned "Random Rotator" link in that spot. You now have all of you blogs in rotation twice (except the least important one you took out).
In our next installment I'll talk to you about other options of helping get your blog(s) seen.
Happy Surfing!

ExposeYourBlog! - Still Ticking. :)
Hello Folks,
I know, it has been a while since I last updated this blog... No valid reason other than I wasn't sure what I should post here.... Still not sure, but I guess I should give an update on how ExposeYourBlog! is doing.
The site is still slowly growing. Would love to see it grow even faster, but at least it hasn't died off! We are getting new visitors checking us out daily and new members every week!
We could always use more members and would love to see some of our members come back to surfing again, but we are active and that is good!
What I like about ExposeYourBlog! is that we have a core group of surfers that comment on the blogs they are reading and that are active in their surfing. We have a group that surf often, but don't comment, but based on emails I get from some from this group, they are reading the blogs! And we have a group that have checked out some, come in every so often to surf a few and move back on.
So, it comes down to EYB! being like most other activities that are available out there. We are a niche group, blogs only, so I expect this kind of growth, so we are in line I think with what we should be having.
Now, what can I do to get you to advertise us more? What can I get you to do if you have a blog, on any platform to use this site to get you blog seen? Let me know!
0Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, and Happy New Year!
