Like @joeli-kelly I have images turned off for faster load on my iPhone and whatnot. My signature is full text only and reads: Name, Occupations (knit & crochet designer, technical editor), Website link, Twitter, Facebook.

I guess I should add Instagram and a link to my Ravelry shop?

Congratulations, @libby-jonson! How awesome!

I'm thrilled – my new Joss wrap won the design competition at the Unwind Yarn Festival this weekend. Yay!

Thanks, Jill!

I think that may be the one @jill-wolcott…I will give it a listen in the next few days as I have scheduled the writing of a blog post for Thursday. Thanks!

I love that new color! Makes it much more cohesive and soothing.

@lesley-austin I found this on Facebook today! Not sure if it is what you had in mind, but seems like a good place to start.

Thank for the note about Leave a Reply. I should add a caveat about if you are looking in the archives. It was the first time I've encouraged leaving a reply, but I did notice that too.

Thank you, Tara!
I never put the Facobook button there in the first place; that's kind of eerie… I'll go on fixing things…

Yay @riin-gill! I'm so glad that even though you are struggling with the overall scheme, the day-to-day runs well!

I just use text — just my name and website link.

I only want to post once a week @kimberley-bridgwater, allowing for some spontaneous posts if I ever feel like it again. I know it is personal preference, but I wish more bloggers would post less…I find it hard to keep up with my visiting and reading these days.

Before I write down a rhythm and topics, I'm going to read over what I answered in…[Read more]

Thank you @lisa-barnes, it helps a lot. I was thinking that if I like a small decorative image and some email setups don't load it, the rest will be fine. I do the same as you in Mailchimp, with the cursive signature. : )

Since I first posted this, I've had a little meltdown over all the “advice” out there on the web, and have decided to gather…[Read more]

Hi @lesley-austin, I do two different signatures, depending on use. For my regular emails, I have a signature that is my full name, company name, website address, phone number, logo, and tag line. I realize that sometimes people won't see the logo, but the other info. is what is most important.

For my bulk emails (which I do through Mailchimp), I…[Read more]

So, @joeli-kelly, what do you do for your signature? And thank you for perspective.

I have images turned off by default in emails so if you had an email signature I wouldn't see it! Just something to think about.

Also personally, an image signature would feel very outdated and unprofessional to me.

@lesley-austin, I've only done one reblogging post recently. I posted it Thursday. It's had quite a few likes but no comments.

How often are you planning on posting to the main blog? That may help in narrowing done post topics styles.

Yes, thank you @linda-tieu, that is one of the types of posts I have planned. Glimpses of each of my offerings in some way is an aim…I've always mentioned, but stories of the creation of each of them and glimpses are what I want to be more consistent with. I'll be creating videos, too, now that I've found an easier way to do that. iMovie and I…[Read more]

I know you already settled – but I thought I would pop in and say I totally agree with the rates you chose!

When you underprice it looks like you are selling something limited/newbie or sleazy – that's the gut feeling I get when I see a low ball price.
