How I got my blog started 

I love answering this question :) lol, but I will try to keep it short. I always wanted to write a blog so, I finally just went for it. First I was going for fashion hence my link http://plovesfashion.blogspot.com, but then I realized I probably would focus more on beauty. Then the blog name Beauty and more by Pilar was born. By doing this I would let my audience know they could expect read a variety of topics on my blog.

My advice to new bloggers

1. Stay true to yourself and be authentic

I love reading blogs where I get a sense of the person's personality. It's your blog, so discuss the things that interests you! 

2. Try to avoid the "follow for follow" requests

I have to agree with Miriam and Ashley on the whole "follow for follow" requests. I actually find it rather rude because it comes off as your looking for numbers of followers  rather than the quality and time the person put into the content of their blog. I think most people who blog can relate to what I'm saying. It's true if you liked my blog, I would think you would already be following instead of bartering for follow requests...Instead  of only asking for follow for follow, people could at least write "I enjoy your blog and would you mind taking a look at my blog?" and just leave a link. I don't mind links in the comments because it gives bloggers an opportunity to check out other blogs. It's  the whole follow for follow can be impersonal and annoying.

3. Don't get discouraged

Blogging should be for fun! Try not to get discouraged if your blog isn't taking off like you thought it would. If you enjoy blogging keep at it!
