Aussiejourno's Weekly Blog Awards

Top Blogs For Week Ending 16 June

Aussiejourno's Weekly Blog Awards are meant to encourage bloggers from all round the world and they give new bloggers the chance to get their work noticed in an increasingly popular forum, alongside the world's most-visited blogs.

There is no monetary reward, no live TV coverage, no red carpet interview, but the exposure comes with international bragging rights. If you would like your blog (or someone else's) to be considered for next week's awards, please leave the url here, in the comment section. You can nominate as many blogs as you want. Entries close at midday Greenwich Mean Time each Friday.

In conclusion, I would just like to say I've been mentoring several bloggers for a while and it is important to know that the work of a blogger whose url has only 10 hits can be ranked alongside a blogger whose url has 10,000 hits or more. I would like other would-be writers and bloggers to benefit from the fact that I am a bestselling novelist (`Vegemite Vindaloo', published by Penguin) and career journalist with almost 30 years' experience in writing, editing, design, newspaper technology and production.

Thank you, David! You make me blush...

Congrats to all the other blogs, too. There are so many good ones, and it's great to have these awards as a resource.

Bart said...

Woohoo! Moving on up.

Shrink Wrapped Scream said...

Woohoo! Moving on down. (But still very grateful to be in the top ten..) Thanks David, and even more especially for giving me so much help this week, allowing me to pick your brains - you're a diamond!

Cuckoo said...

Ha Ha.. Me too moving down !!
I haven't come back yet and all I can see is, that I have slipped down from first 50 blogs to honourable mentions. Wow !

Well, I am in the middle of two trips, so would be posting very little till next few days.

Thanks David, for still keeping me in the list.

Cheers,
Cuckoo

Ianqui said...

Hi David,

I am very new to blogging, and I know I have lots to learn, but I thought I'd nominate myself just to see what happens :)

Here is my url:

Hi Bart-Man,

If I'm not wrong, you've never dropped below the top 10 - is that correct?

Cheers

Thanks very much David, I'm very happy to be in your list.

Bart said...

I do believe I dropped as far as 14-16 at one point.

Ak-Man said...

13 . . . keepin that spot warm for whoever wants it.

I have to raise the bar and move up. I know it's not a 'competition' but you all know I want that number one spot.

Feel like I'm runnin out of steam due to having other things on my mind. But I'll shake it all off in due time.

Thanks for the recognition.

Digging the list by the way . . . it's good seing Lady T on there. Does she know she's on the list?

Can't tell you how glorious it is to be listed among your hundreds of recommended blog sites. Literally can't tell you. Couldn't find your email or I'd have told you that way.
