Hello Mom Bloggers, and Dads also!

The last couple weeks have been very exciting as we've added a lot of features and seen the site's depth of content grow along with the traffic we're garnering from families in the regions we cover. We have a lot of people to thank for all this, but one group of folks seems to be setting themselves apart in our world. That is the Mom Blogger! Now, I'm a dad, so I had no idea there were so many mom bloggers out there writing about so many interesting things. In fact, several of our editors are also mom bloggers with blogs covering their areas such as Tahoe Kids Guide, Seattle moms and New York moms.

The synergy has been great. Our mom bloggers write on their blog about the great things they are doing around town with the kids. They can write a lot of detail, and then link back to the venues in Famplosion which they spend time at with the family. Then, on the venue page in Famplosion, we now support links in the Comments so a blogger can post a comment with a link that directs the reader back to their blog post. We've gotten great feedback from our user base as to the usefulness of this depth of information about local venues and experiences. And, the cross linking helps both Famplosion and the mom blog see greater results from organic search!

I love it when we discover the proverbial "win-win."

So, if you're a mom blogger, or dad blogger for that matter, and are writing about the great things you're doing around town with the family, we'd love to support your effort in getting the word out by having you write comments in the Famplosion venue page for those venues that link back to your post. And if you could link to us in your post as well, even better!
