I'm sure that lots of bloggers will agree that "being part of the community" is one of the best things about being a blogger.
You can meet so many different, interesting people and that's really amazing!
But of course there can be some negativity, which is totally normal because people are different and they have different taste & style. So, I got this idea to put together some tips why bloggers should support each other.
1. You are not gonna get along with all the bloggers.
It's totally normal that you can't get along with all the people around you. It's totally OK, to have your own opinion and share it... but insulting someone personally is not OK. Accept that people sometimes just don't agree with each other.
2. Make an effort
I enjoy reading other blogs and comment on them, liking other blogger's instagram photos - I think this is important. To support each other. I don't like bloggers who never comment on other blogger's post and you always do on theirs... Well, it's just kind of support that I like and find important. It is nice to know that our time and posts are being appreciated and blogging community can become such a nicer place.
3. Accept that some people get paid for blogging.
There is such a negative attitude around sponsored posts and I understand why. Okay, some people that are not bloggers - just don't understand how this works.
I would NEVER sponsor something that I don't like and don't believe in. I kinda laugh when I see all the photos on Instagram of a big bloggers (fitness, fashion...) drinking those magic teas all the time and taking some magic candies for nicer hair... well, I have enough of thise typical sponsored thing, I get it that you got few 1000$ or more for posting it, but still I don't buy that haha.
Stay real. Sponsored posts are totally OK, if you agree and believe in the product. Remember when "oh so" famous Kylie J was sponsoring a cream which will make your booty bigger? Well... haha, that's what I am talking about.
4. Make an effort (again!)
Some of the people just DON'T like helping each other. Well, I admit I click a lot of times on "google ads" commercials on blog, because I know that brings them few cents and why not? If can help only with 1 click and make a bloggers happy, why not. I doesn't cost me anything.
And when it comes to affiliate links. Why not clicking on them and making blogger's statistics better and help them? If you can reading their blogs for free... well, that's at least you can do!
You never know, people can start doing this for you too! :)
5. Don't be a dick.
Haha, sorry for the title, but I had too. This is applying to life in general. Be a nice person. Don't like the blog or person? Ok. Move on. Don't like a youtube video? Ok, that's fine. Stop watching it.
You don't have to be rude and tell people their makeup sucks or that their outfit looks like crap. Who does that? Would you have guts to say this in person?!
Put to energy into being nicer and better person. You are not gonna like everything I write and that's okay. Just. Be. Nice.
Like I'm always saying "The most important thing is to stay true and real to yourself. Lots of people want's to be "like that girl, like this girl"... well you know what? There is only 1 YOU in this Universe. Enjoy being unique! :*"
Love and pizzas,
