Several suggestions were made that went with the theme that social networking is incredibly important for a successful blog. This was of course something I knew, but the modes of my doing so in the past (facebook groups, postings on message blogs) hadn’t been too successful. Over the past few days I took these suggestions to heart and have expanded my networking and made some modifications including:

1. Creating a Twitter account for my blog. You can follow me by clicking the button in the top left corner of the blog or clicking here. So far so good!

2. Joining gluten free groups on Linked In, there are quite a few! I will most likely start a LI Gluten Free one in the future.

3. Joining Gluten Free Bloggers.Com which I came across on Twitter. There is a button on the top right of my blog which will take you to their site. Their mission, on the first page, is fantastic and their creator Jenna Drew seems like a really positive person! Her blog, among other sites, can be viewed at http://www.glutenfreejenna.com/. 

For any new bloggers, GF related or other, social networking and getting your face/blog out there is not only important to promote your own blog but also REALLY Helps with seeing the positivity and enthusiasm that is out there. I think if it weren’t for individuals like those at GF Social Media, GlutenFreeFaces and GlutenFreeBloggers there would be little ‘real people’ as opposed to professionals out there on the internet to promote awareness, provide support and ensure that we can continue with a positive quality of life. Social Networking is definitely a good support system in the internet era and one I am happy to be a part of. 

Thank you everyone for all of your efforts!
