		<description>Hi &lt;a href=&quot;http://greedygirlsguide.akilahthompkinspmp.com&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;www.greedygirlsguide.com&lt;/a&gt; checking in from SITS

I was just surfing through and found this post. I&#039;m so glad I did it really has some great insight. 

Personally I like, no love product reviews. I agree with you that hey should be within reason and on topic. I review items I like from time to time, but thats because I like them and I think they are relevant to my readers. Also when I am shopping for items first thing i do is go to google blogs and search for reviews, when i make a purchase I like to know what others think about it before I purchase mine and i like to compare for other products. I have found a lot of great items out there based on reviews i read. So long story short i think they are great and helpful when needed. 

I started my blog to give my readers something i thought wasn&#039;t out there and sometimes it&#039;s just my opinion on a particular item

		<description>Good points here and thank you for speaking up about this. I am very careful what products or books I review. If it looks like I might not like the product I pass on reviewing it. If the company says they want an honest opinion then I will review and be honest with both pros and cons. I rely on other homeschool moms curriculum reviews so I would hope they are not caught up in this kind of scenario with PR people.

		<description>I respectfully disagree with everything on this post.

Whatever happened to blogging for fun?? Who decided that a blog must, or must not, include specific elements?? Why is the implied intent that every blogger &quot;must&quot; be aimed at attracting and increasing it&#039;s audience??

Hello? It&#039;s a blog. Just a blog. Only a blog. Jeepers creepers, we aren&#039;t curing cancer here people!!

		<description>Great tips, I read another article a few months ago and it helped me out tremendously. I also learned the linking out rule quickly too…many bloggers don’t realize what a difference sharing other links makes.</description>
