A question I’ve been asked so many times over the years is how to pitch brands. If you have been blogging a while and want to start making money from your blog then pitching is something you will probably find yourself doing. Lots of professional bloggers will still have a high percentage on inbound work, but pitching can be helpful …
Supporting other bloggers? Surely they’re your competition… Why would you want to help them? Sadly, I think there are people who do actually think this way. For me, this attitude is the complete opposite to the attitude you should have about your fellow bloggers. I’m going to walk you through why you should be supporting other bloggers and exactly how …
Blogging is totally awesome. For me, it has changed my life and that of my family without a doubt. Whether it’s financial, events, opportunities or connections, blogs can be hugely powerful. With this in mind, I asked a few friends to share the biggest bonus that blogging has given them. For me, it is the friends I have made, life-long …
Have you heard the saying ‘it takes a village to raise a child’? Well, I think the same theory can apply to our blogs. So many amazing aspects of my own blogging are actually things that I can attribute to the fact that I am working with others. As bloggers, the majority of our working time can be quite solitary. …

I have spoken before about the friendships I have made through blogging; about the wonderful people that have come into my life since I published that first post back in 2014. I genuinely never thought that friendships would turn out to be the best thing about blogging when I started. I have obviously had friends before, plenty of them; some …
Instagram and I have a rocky relationship. I can happily spend hours just scrolling through all the pretty squares that give a glimpse into the lives of, mainly, strangers. I love that you can feel such a lot much from a photo, if it speaks to you. So much power in one little square. Our relationship is rocky as I …
Last weekend I, along with many of my blogging friends, attended Blog On Win; a blogging conference in Winchester. Luckily for me, Winchester is 30 minutes down the road, which was great. Blog On is the baby of Laura, who has organised these conferences in three different cities/towns, with the flagship being Blog On Mosi, in Manchester. A couple of …
Last Friday I set off to London to attend Blogtacular, a conference I have never been to before. Last year, I had studied the social media feeds and decided it was somewhere I needed to go. I had arranged to share a room with the lovely Cathy from My Sweet Things, who I had never met before but as soon …
I love blogging, I make no secret of that. Blogging encompasses so many wonderful things and has changed my life, helping me in ways that I could not have foreseen when I typed my very first post. I started blogging when Baby was five months old, two months before I was diagnosed with PND. Before Baby I had a job …
Last week Baby and I set off on little road trip to meet up with the wonderful Katy from What Katy Said and her two gorgeous girlies. Katy has already blogged about the day and I must admit her lovely post made me cry, just so lovely of her. Without wanting to replicate Katy’s post, I just want to say that blogging …

I recently read this post by Dorky mum and I really enjoyed reading her blogger picks, so I thought I would join in. I think for bloggers and non-bloggers alike, it could be a way to discover new blogs. Here goes, … I wish I knew better is Hannah from Make, Do & Push. I adore Hannah’s blog and love …
My feet hurt (so much!) and my head is spinning. I am sitting down for the first time today and the mixture of emotions I am experiencing is very weird. Overwhelming happiness to be reunited with my little family, who I missed more than words can describe, but also there is a feeling sadness. Sadness that my little BritMums Live …
