Top Ten Post
With 2014 now behind us, I thought it would be nice to look back on my top ten posts of 2014. Last year was an amazing year for my blog and I want to remember the posts you loved and my personal favourites too. So, I have taken my five posts with the highest hits and another five personal favourites. Here they are!

Blogging
This post is my most viewed of all time. I still get comments and interaction from it now. I guess it resonated with lots of people in a similar position.
The Linky List
This started as a spreadsheet for me, then I expanded it and it is now updated monthly and contains *most* of the parenting linkies. I am thrilled that it is used as a resource now by so many people.
Top Tips
This is a collaborative post including lots of great blogging tips from some wonderful bloggers.

Blogging as therapy
I really enjoyed sharing what blogging means to me and how it helps me combat my PND. It is so amazing how many people I know who feel the same about their blogs.

A light hearted look at the skills I have gained through parenting. I think we are all boardroom ready now!

Thanks huni. I love to help if I can, I am still so new to this but I guess the hours I put in are the equivalent to years not months! 😉 I am glad they you have found something useful in the posts, that is very flattering xx
You’ve had such a successful year, it is very inspiring. I am looking for some new linkies and had a look at your linky list earlier, it is very useful. Thank you x

What a great list! The bloggers child one cracked me up, we don’t have kids, but I can only imagine Dustin would say that being a bloggers fiancé is actually pretty similar 😉
Author
Thank you. Glad you liked them 🙂 Thanks for reading x
I love that you offer so much help with blogging. I had to share with a bunch of blogging friends. Happy New Year.
Author
Thanks so much. I am so glad you liked it and thanks so much for sharing x
Ah… great – what a good idea to include half on numbers and half on the ones that you liked the best. I remember reading many of these but I missed out on the Christmas photos one – glad I got to read it this time!
Author
Yes that was a challenging day! 😉 x
Great list Aby! I think i have read them all, i saw your comment above about not having a niche, i love how diverse you are and actually I’ve been thinking the same after a PR asked me what my niche was and I was like ermmmmmm…..
Do I need a niche? My life isn’t just one thing I’m not just a stay at mummy, I’m not just good at cooking (well I think I am anyway!) Can’t I have more than one niche? Or can I just be niche free?!?!?
Author
Thank you that means a lot. Regarding the niche thing. I do think about it sometimes but I remember Alison Perry saying at BlogFest that your niche is your voice, so I feel better about being a bit diverse 🙂 x
I have read eau one of these over the course of the year. The tips you offer have been fabulous for me to help improve my own blog and outlook. Thank you x
Author
Oh thank you, I am so glad my posts have helped x
That’s a great list of posts. I have my own linky list of all the ones I link up to regularly but if I have a post that I’m planning that may not fit one of those, I always refer back to your linky list to see if there is another linky I can join in with. It’s such a useful list to refer too – thank you so much for taking the time to put it together.
