Happy 4th of July weekend, y’all! Hope everyone is enjoying a relaxing weekend filled with BBQ, fireworks, and sparkle!
Here is what happened on SITS this week:
Education
Our final week of the Problogger Summer Challenge wrapped up in the Education channel. {If you are still following along in the forum, the daily activities will finish up by mid-July.} Some of the highlights this week included a post on how to spot spam comments and a link-up to drive more comments to your blog.
Read the latest from our Problogger summer series here.
Women on the Move
Andrea, our #SITSBooks Book Club lead, hosted a small giveaway for a book on 101 off-line things to do with your kids this summer. It is something I’m sure we could all use!
Food & Lifestyle
Emily Louise got us thinking outside of the box for dinner with her idea to create pizzas using a waffle iron. Yum!
SITS Girl in the Spotlight
This week in the spotlight, we are headed over to visit Laurie Turk of Tip Junkie!
We’re talking all about blog conferences on Tip Junkie, recommending our top picks, helping you to understand how they are different, and even summarizing specifics such as when, where, and how much it will cost.
At the end of the post, you’ll even find a giveaway for TWO FREE conference passes to Bloggy Boot Camp. That’s right! We’re giving away a ticket to Denver AND Atlanta.
You can find all of this here!
What’s Coming Up Next Week
- Lynda from Daily Window will be kicking off a monthly #SITSPics link up, getting us back to taking pictures and learning more about how to enhance our blog through photography.
- Emily Louise from Little Momma & Co will be giving us the low down on Foodie iPhone apps in the Food & Lifestyle channel.
- AND we will previewing something so special that we can hardly stand it. After weeks and weeks of preparation, we are finally ready to reveal our Birthday Extravanganza! In honor of The SITS Girls three year anniversary, we have amazing giveaways and free gifts for every single member of our community. {Yes, it’s true. We love you long time.} You simply cannot miss this.
Hope everyone enjoys a wonderful holiday weekend! We’ll be taking a break from posting on Monday, but will be back again on Tuesday with all of the goodness I described.
Enjoy!
