No Reply

Hands down one of my favorite parts about blogging is you, my readers. Without you this would be A LOT less fun. I guess it would make a nice online journal to reference someday, but that would be about it. If I am being honest creating a journal is really the reason I started blogging in the first place. I thought it would be awesome for my girls to be able to look back and catch a glimpse of their childhood someday. I feel pretty confident guessing that I am not the only blogger that had that in mind when they started.
Then something unexpected happened.
 I met people, AMAZING people. People I connected with, people that became friends. Good friends that I have never even met. My husband thinks I am crazy when I bring up Jenny and the house her family is building, Desiree in sunny California or how cute Courtney's daughter is.... and that applies to several of you :).  (Apparently Courtney translates to cute offspring in some language.)
My point is I LOVE connecting with my readers. 
Sadly that isn't always something that works out easily.

On a daily basis comments are left on my blog that I want to reply to, but I can't.

No reply blogger, you can change. A simple setting in you profile hides your email address. When you write a comment on my post it comes from, you guessed it, no reply blogger. I obviously can not email you back. That means I am left with the only other option, directly replying to your comment on my page which most of the time you probably never will never see.

The good news is, it's an easy fix! It will take you about 30 seconds and you will instantly feel more loved when you find out the people you thought were ignoring weren't. 

1. In the top right corner of your blogger dashboard you will see a down arrow, click on it.

2. You should now see this box. Click on Blogger profile.

3. Now you are on this screen where in the upper right corner you can select edit profile.

4. Make sure the box that says show my email address IS checked. 

If you are a no reply blogger it won't be.

5. Scroll down, and save your profile.

Your done!

 See I told you it was easy. I would have gone on for MONTHS being a no reply blogger if I wasn't informed by a fellow blogger that I was. I hope this post helps you to connect with readers, the blogs you read and hopefully that just might include me.

Have a great day!
