Are you wondering how to engage and grow your blog community?
I think it’s a continual journey for most of us bloggers… so while I was at the Mom 2.0 Summit 2010, I grabbed a few minutes with community expert and founder of The Blog Frog, Rustin Banks.
So tell us, have you ever visited a community on The Blog Frog?
Do you have your own community – either on The Blog Frog, on your own blog or on another site?
Thanks to Loralee who recorded the interview for me. (Last year at Mom 2.0 we had a fabulous camera guy to help Janice and I with our video interviews, but this year I went solo and we didn’t have a cameraman. LOL.)
Talk soon,
Susan, co-founder of 5 Minutes for Mom.

Just a little shout out here for our online stores… Have you seen our pedal car store and our rocking horse store.
Just had an “AHA” moment! Really focusing on building my community… thank you!
I’m a member of the 5 Minutes for Mom community on The Blog Frog and I also have my own community called Mommy’s Camera and Blogger the frog. I love the communities of The Blog Frog and they have definitely increased my readership!
Great and informative post! As a newer blogger, I’m always trying to build my community, so I really appreciate these suggestions. Thanks!
When Susan asked, “can we interview you about building community?” I said “you don’t even need to ask”. I love talking about community.
To me, that’s what it’s all about, connecting and sharing. To the extent that we can build tools that help blogs do that, I’m a happy man.
It was so great hanging out with Janice and Susan at Blissdom and Mom 2.0. I love their blog and LOVE LOVE the surprises they have in store for everyone (tease tease).
I’m a novice at blogging and just play around with it a bit. I had never heard of blog frog & will be checking it out! Thanks!
Yes Kelli, isn’t Rusty such a great guy. He’s been so awesome giving us great advice for 5 Minutes for Mom.
I was lucky enough to meet and chat with Rustin at Savvy Blogging! He is super sweet and very knowledgeable!
