LoL 9


 
It's hard to figure out what exactly we are supposed to do during the time we really show our lurkers how important they are. I was told that there was a way to see how many times your blog was looked at. And sure enough, there is something in the Stats area that shows it. Interesting enough, some of my posts that had the most comments didn't have the most, or even closest to the most, views. For some reason that makes me laugh.
The post that got the most views was "oh my God, what a spanking". That was in April 2012. All you spankos out there, must have viewed that day. I would have.
My viewers are from all over the place. Wow! Gotta love the internet.
And then there are the posts that had the most comments, they also had the most "Anonymous" comments. That is really touching. And the feedback was tremendous.
Most of us bloggers start out as Lurkers. I dabble with having a blog and then shutting it down. I think I had one post up for a couple of days. Then chickened out because I couldn't figure out why anyone would be interested in what I thought. Two bloggers wrote to me after I shut the blog down and asked me and told me that they really liked my first post. All bloggers are important but at the time when I was new, these two bloggers, Stormy and Bonnie, seemed like they were famous and the best and everyone loved them. I felt so special. I soon realized that every blogger is special.
 
I wonder when I get a comment from "anonymous" if they are actually a lurker. I read the anonymous comments, they can be some of the most insightful and kind comments that I get. Tell me, which kind of my blog posts you like the best.                                                                                            
The loving, the spanking, the pictures, my life, interesting things............?
 
Alright, so in the spirit of Love Our Lurkers" number nine, this is when I get to thank you all and encourage you to speak out, be brave, and know that I would really love to hear from you.

  11. Happy LOL Day Blondie ~ I always enjoy reading your posts about you and Ty and your kids as I can so relate to all that. And of course I love your more risque' posts too - they inspire me. I'm so glad that Bonnie and Stormy convinced you to stay - you've got a lot of great friends here. :)

    1. It seems so long ago that I started blogging but it really wasn't. I still feel anxious sometimes. But knowing that there are friends like you that actually not only read my posts but care enough to comment, well that helps me stay calm.

    1. Does that mean you are a kind of lurker? Some days I have to decide between commenting on posts, replying to my comments, reading every one of my favorite blogs, make a new post, or close my eyes and go back to bed.

  18. I love to shop. And spend money, especially his money. After a day of visiting blogs, I am looking forward to going over to Blondie's shop and picking up a paddle or two. She and her husband, Ty, have several that are gorgeous and for a reasonable price as well.

    I patted my pocket to make sure my cash was with me, and pulled out my map to find the store. Ahhh... its on Spanking Loop at the corner of Kinky Blvd. Giggling to myself, I wondered if there were paddles hanging from the trees, like early Christmas decorations.

    Walking up the path to the door, I frowned when I saw the sign on the door. Written in masculine writing, it said, "Closed temporarily. The Ouch Maker Prototype is being tested. Come back later." Awww, I wasn't going to get to meet the famous Blondie and her paddle making husband.

    I took out the card I brought that read, "Happy LOL Day Blondie. Love a Lurker." I tucked it into the door and was about to turn away, when a distinctive sound came to me from somewhere in the building. Giving a silent salute, I turned and walked away.

    1. You didn't break the door down and save me from being used by the Ouch Maker? Thank you so much for your cute comment. I am always in a much better mood when I am not getting spanked, well most spankings that is. Some spankings don't make me yell as much moan. Oh is that too much information? Oops, you can always count on me to say what's on my mind. Lol
      Come back and visit and comment any time. I would love to see you around here

    1. Thanks Julia. And Happy LOL day to you two too. My blog posts are similar to the way I think. Scattered. I always leave myself notes and then lose the notes or don't remember what the note was about.
      Thanks for answering my email and now I will have to figure out what I should do with the first email I sent you about testing out the painful thingy

    1. Thanks for stopping by. It's seems really risky to share things that are so personal. I worry sometimes that someone may recognize me. But I guess if they are reading my blog then well, they probably wouldn't say anything since we are all in this together. I share more in my blog than I do to anyone in my personal life. The support is awesome. And I really appreciate your comments

  38. Hi, sort of lurking here and seem to have missed the lurking day on these blogs. I too started one, then chickened out, now I don't know what to write and I don't even know where to jump in! It's crazy. I like reading what I've been finding around the blogs, although not sure where we fit in at times.
