I think 'no' to the idea of visiting your blog. I think 'know' is spelled with an 'H', as is 'what'. I think that if you don't bother to spell correctly in a forum post, reading your blog would drive me crazy. Lastly, I think that the overwhelming majority of this site would prefer some content in your post as a preview of what we're likely to see on your blog, rather than just a blind ad. A simple post of substance will get you more vies. Assuming there's something of worth there, that is.

Also, which part of this thread is painting and which part is modeling?

OOOOh ouch mister, that was a tad harsh. Firstly i would like to point out to you that my spelling on the blog is impecable and the 'blind ad' on my previous post was merely a quick shot in the dark to get some views and ideas. if you would have witheld your judgment until you had indeed collected all the facts before making a justified post then you would have seen what i mean in the first place. If par chance you are not placated by my possibly pointless rhetoric then please read this small extract to whet your appetite for more of my blog

Regards Bond

"Something that immediately struck me is the smaller scale of the LoTR minis, the whole of the Rider of Rohans head is the same size as a Space marine mouth to hairline (on those of which have hair on as oppose to their follically challenged brethren). The other thing that clinced it for me was the awesome poses they are in, while you are restricted to only 6 riders I think the thing that varies them are the two different types of horse. this gives 12 variations in total, more than enough to look good from tabletop distance"

At least make it easy with a clickable link

Sorry for not linking it
http://bondhobby.blogspot.com , heres the link in its entirety.

"Impeccable and withheld". Sorry. I'm not trying to be a dick. I just thought it was funny that you misspelled the comment claiming that your spelling was flawless.

As for my prior comment. Sorry if it sounded harsh, but you did ask for what we thought. I told you what I thought. I mean, not to be harsh (again) but... if you don't want to hear it, don't ask for it.
Withheld my judgment until I had all the facts? I had all the facts to answer the question you asked, which was what I thought.



Ghidorah

I had all the facts to answer the question you asked, which was what I thought.

The 'facts' you had did not answer the question I asked, the question I asked was about the Blog itself and not how i chose to market it (which you based your views upon), so in truth you did not answer my question at all, the question being about how the blog was coming along...you understand?

Hey uh..... post some pics of your stuff here.

FLAME WARS!

Stephen Bond wrote:..the question I asked was about the Blog itself and not how i chose to market it...

Then perhaps you should have used a complete sentence. Something like, "Please go take a look at my blog and tell me what you think in a reply." But no. You asked an open-ended question.

Your turn.




*edit to remove unnecessary snarky comment



Ghidorah

Tbf i dont care about the question i asked, all i wanted was opinions and thus far i have had no real replies only half-hearted and sidways comments based on somthing partially based upon, or wholly not based upon, the subject in hand.
If you indeed want the queens speech version of the question i shall re-phrase it for those not so linguistically versatile...
READ BLOG....POST THOUGHTS...THANKS...LINK...http://bondhobby.blogspot.com/

ok? are we assuaged? mollified? satisfied even?

No one is gonna follow some link to your blog dude. Just post pics here.

This entire thread has been you txt psting for people to read ur blog, then whining when people criticize your horrible presentation, then half insulting and half ordering people to follow a non-clickable link in your signature to go to your blog, the contents of which are completely unknown to us.

So I think no, I will not "READ BLOG....POST THOUGHTS..." THANKS FOR THE "LINK", BY THE WAY IT'S ONLY A "HYPERLINK" AKA "LINK" IF YOU CAN CLICK ON IT, OTHERWISE IT IS A URL, THANKS AGAIN

Seriously though come on guys - hug it out and move on. If you want to promote your blog just link it to your signature and link the pics to the forum threads. People will check it out if it interests them - that's how you're going to get the most traffic.

Arguing with people about spelling in a forum is like watching a monkey try to f-ck a football.

thats funny to watch

Stephen Bond wrote:...all i wanted was opinions...

Oh? I thought you wanted blog traffic? No? Just opinions? Well, then! I'm certainly glad I was able to help! Any time you want an opinion, just ask. I'll try my best to accommodate you.

lol... That comment sounds like you've actually seen that before. I'm afraid to ask where, but I am DYING to know...

ill say mission accomplished, lots more views and lost of feedback...I WIN!!!!

Not really. You got blog traffic, whic unless you are getting paid for ads does little. I received a great deal of entertainment; which is priceless.

Yeah i guess im not getting paid but the banter was top class, brilliant even!

you should look into google ads for your blog if your provider isnt already running them.

I think i may do that! Heard that it generates peanuts. Thanks for the FEEDBACK!!! lol:-D

no they pay you in cash. peanuts would be no use unless you happen to have monkeys or elephants. silly google

Still can't work out what this has to do with painting and modeling ? And its also your 5 thread trying to get traffic for your blog .
Like others have said why don't you set up a p&m one here on dakka or at least post some content up to draw people to it ?

Well, it was hardly fair. I'm 300' tall. My feet longer than that.
