It's Comment Love Day

Well Hello 2011. We've made it through one heck of a year, goodbye 2010, we welcome 2011 with our arms wide open. It was a wonderful way to end it. We have met some  a ton of really amazing blogs here and continue to carry that out. We wish each and every one of you all the best this new year has to offer.

Each Week we Host Hops that have NO RULES. I like it that way and continue to have it that way. Except for today. Each Sunday we will be hosting Comment Love Day. It's all about commenting because we all know how busy we can get where we can't always comment on each of the lovely blogs we read. I personally view a lot of blogs on my phone and it's not easy to log in to leave comments. And I know many others who have the same problem. As much as I would love to wait a hundred hours for my phone to upload, it's impossible. So we are dedicating one day to comment love and we hope you'll all find time to join in. I also wanted to mention something because several people think this: If your not getting a lot of comments on your posts, it's not because people are not reading. It's most likely for reasons I've already stated. So do not get discouraged, keep blogging and know that people are reading your blog, they just may not always be able to comment. But I do think it's important to set a day aside to show that love. So if you can't participate today then maybe set aside one day during each week to do that.

The Rules are Quite Simple. You don't have to be a member to link up (although it would be lovely if you joined this rockin' club). Just follow these steps and link up.

1.) Link Up and Leave a Comment Here Afterwards. If you don't we will delete your link. It's only fair that everyone linking up do this.

2.) Head To The Blog In Front (before) your Comment to leave them a comment on their post. (No Copy and Pastes, Must be something Related to their post) Tell them where your coming from and wish them a good day!

3.) Visit at least 2-3 Other Blogs in the Hop and Do the Same.

4.) Return The Love when you get a chance.

5.) If I find any of you asking for a follow in return, we will remove any comments and links you put on this site. This is not a place where you can go asking people to follow you. It makes people feel uncomfortable and it's not nice. If someone wants to follow you, they will. They will because you were being sincere. This also goes for asking someone to check you out. All you need to do is leave your link after the comment. You don't need to ask or demand things.

Thanks for being here. Jump in and share the love. We like to encourage you to also mention a blog you love in your posts (we like to call them shout outs), it's a great way to get involved, gain friends and readers.
