The question for the week - How do you spread the word about your blog?
ANSWER - I spread the word in random ways and I am not consistently pounding the pavement. I am in spurts kind of girl - I twitter, facebook, comment on other blogs, post my reviews on various websites. But my most favorite way that I spread the word is: when I send out a book on Bookmooch or Paperbackswap - I include one of my small business cards for my blog. I do this assuming that if this person likes the book they are receiving just maybe they may like my blog and what I read. On my card it has my email - just in case someone wants to start a book convo! Not sure if it has warranted any random traffic - but I think it is just something different and fun!
Happy Friday and Happy Blog Hopping!
Oooh, I've been doing the same as well with Paperbackswap and my book blog business card! I forgot to mention that in my hop today! Gah!!

I love having business cards on hand to give out to people. I never push them on anyone, but if we happen to be talking about books, I happen to pull them out ... They're cute and a great way to spread the word.

Your business card idea is great, I've been thinking about doing that.
