Blog related -- does this sound legit?
 

I got the following post on my blog, which was quite flattering. However, my blog isn't that great so I'm a bit skeptical. Ok, a LOT skeptical. What do you think about this message:

Is this some type of marketing thing to get me to go to her website or what??? :confused: :confused:

it looks like they would like you to use their link on your site, but I don't know exactly what they offering.

Maybe some other ladies can help

Not sure what they are promoting, but I've gotten a few of these from different blog directories and I usually ignore them. They usually want to get your attention so you will "buy" a better position in their directory or something.

I'm glad you responded Michelle, I respect your blog knowledge!

Well, I have little blog experience but I agree with Michelle. It looks like they are trying to get you to buy something. Just be wary.

Joan,
I have no blog experience, but this reminds me of the time years ago, when I was approached about being in some Who's Who of Upcoming Business People or something like that. All I needed to do was place an order for the book for about $100! Needless to say, I didn't end up in the book -

Joan, I just went to the blog that was sent to you. I agree with Michelle. Just keep an eye out and see if they contact you again with more information. :)

Joan:

Just wondering if you ever heard from this company again? Any update to share?
