Narrator: Tabitha of The Pairabirds
I came across a good idea while browsing though some forums. LSK Crochet posted a thread about how she was getting burn-out from signing up to the "Next Big Thing in Promotion." I can completely understand where she is coming from. Every few days there seems to be a great new place to market yourself floating around Etsy's forums. I signed up to quite a few. I end up spending most of the day adding profiles to these various sites instead of working on some new pieces. Here is a not so brief list of all of the "Sure-fire ways to Promote" sites I have signed up to in the last year...
Flickr, Myspace, Blogger, BlogCatalogue, Trunkt, DeviantArt, CafePress, RedBubble, IndiePublic, We Love Etsy, Sabet Tv, WOW, Sojournals,Black Planet, Talentdatabase, and others that I have forgotten.
Each of these sites has something that I like about them. Flickr, Blogger, DeviantArt, and RedBubble are my favorites, though. So, I tend to spend more time on these. The rest are updated every now and then.
Is it best to sprinkle The Pairabirds on every site, or submerge the P/birds into a few dedicated sites? I don't know. And, because I don't know I have a small poll in the sidebar that I would like you all to fill out, if you have the time. Just select how you heard about The Pairabirds. I got this idea from LSK Crochet's blog. Once I receive a good number of answers, I can really focus on which sites are beneficial. Until then, I think there's a new site calling me.

It might be more helpful to create a widget that picks up the new post rss of CoverThatMother and embed it at new sites so you don't have to update regularly.
Shine on
