Thanks to SheWrites, my little ole' blog is about to hit a milestone

Last year, I dipped my toe in the bloggosphere when I created http://jessicaksmith.blogspot.com. The experience was initially frustrating and confusing but now my blog has begun to pick up steam. The site was initially named The Light Daughter. A title which needed to be explained and was not commonly searched.

At the advice of SheWriter Courtney Martin, I changed the name to include the word epilepsy since that is the focus of the blog. With the initial title I had to struggle to get 1-3 visitors each day. My new title Living Well With Epilepsy now brings 10-20 visitors to the site each day.

And visitors beget visitors, which is a wonderful thing!

So, after a year and help from heavy SheWriter Courtney Martin, my blog is about to hit 1,000 visits. Take a look and let me know what you think.

Thanks She Writes and Courtney for all your help!
Jessica

Vanitha,
Once you check out the blog, send me a note on my page to let me know what you think. I'd love to hear any ideas you have. With so many types of seizures there are endless issues to cover.

thanks for commenting.
