September has been a wonderful month for the Urchin Knits blog! A new name,URL and philosophy has refreshed the blog and brought a slew of new readers! Page views and followers have DOUBLED in the past month, and I am expecting this increase to keep going for the month of October. With constant blog posts full of unique goodness for kiddos, weekly giveaways from some of your favorites indie artists- along with the excitement of the new Urchin Knits shop, this humble blog has been receiving wonderfully positive feedback.
For the month of October i will be doing things a little differently when it comes to sponsors....
NEW AD SIZE: 180 pixels tall x 140 pixels wide. In exchange for larger ads, I will be having less sponsors- *first come,first serve*
NEW RATES: a reasonable fee of $5 for an ad! This fee will be waived if you are a shop offering a giveaway, or a fellow blogger interested in an ad swap. {ad swap is subject to approval}
OPPORTUNITY FOR SHOPS: In the past month I have been offering weekly giveaways from my sponsors and have received amazing feedback from both readers and the artists themselves. Entries have ranged from 80-150 comments, resulting in a lot of new fans of your shop and product! Shops who are interested in advertising on the Urchin Knits blog will have the opportunity to have a successful giveaway along with the waived ad fee!
SPONSOR HIGHLIGHT: In replace of lengthy interviews with a few sponsors, I will be giving each sponsor the opportunity to share a bit about themselves with a sponsor highlight post. A picture, 'about me' and your supplied links will be shared. Each sponsor gets their own post, so you won't get lost in the crowd!
If you feel your blog or shop relates to the style and aesthetics of the Urchin Knits blog, contact me at:
