Don’t Miss It!

Last year Beyond Mommying grew tremendously.  I saw three times more visitors over my first year and in addition to my daily ramblings and bits of mommy wisdom, was able to host numerous fabulous giveaways and bring you information on some really great products and I am confident 2015 will only get better!

It’s unfortunate, though, that social media sites seem to be doing everything they can to make it harder for us bloggers to reach you readers.  In the past few months I’ve urged my readers to interact more with my fan page on Facebook in order to continue seeing my posts as Facebook became more and more selective about what content they show to people.  This fall, Pinterest also instituted a similar algorithm that makes it less likely that users will see content from the people and organizations they follow.

Slide1Well, Facebook has thrown another curve ball at us bloggers, they recently announced that in January (AKA, now!) they will no longer show posts from pages you’ve “liked” on your News Feed.  (The full story, from Facebook here).

While this is a giant pain for the little bloggers like me who are just trying to get my words out into the world for people to read, it’s also going to mean more work for you!  Now, to see posts from pages you follow, you’ll have to go the page yourself to see the content being shared and posted and while I hope that you will continue to seek out my regular new content, I know that life is busy and we are all short on time, energy and often memory and you may not remember to check in everyday.

So, if you’d like to keep up on what’s happening on Beyond Mommying, and not miss a single thing (and I’m certain some big things are coming in this new year!) my best suggestion is to subscribe to receive email updates.  Simply enter you email address in the “Subscribe to Beyond Mommying” box at the top of the page and you will get email notifications when new posts have been added and you can determine how often you get email updates (daily, weekly, or instantly) so you don’t feel like you’re getting spammed by all the great new content I’m constantly adding.

In addition to Facebook, I also post updates and share new posts regularly on Twitter, Pinterest and google+ so you can follow along with Beyond Mommying there are as well!

May 2015 be wonderful for us all and I look forward to even more growth with my fantastic readers!
