So, in my capacity as junior blogger I thought I’d dedicate a post to telling you what the rules of blogging are.
You might want to sit down at this point, or grab a handy branch if you’re reading this whilst climbing a tree or canoeing down a river. This isn’t going to be easy…
You see, there are so many different types of blogs, styles of writing, motivations for blogging, blogging platforms and ranking systems you might think that it would be difficult to pull together a post that summarised the rules for all.
But, guess what? I’ve done it.
The faint-hearted might want to look away now:-
THERE ARE NO RULES!!!!
So there we have it folks, no rules, who’d have thought it?….now go ahead and enjoy yourselves.

The Blog Rules
:<)
though, i suspect there may be a few unwritten ones!
LOL-good one-had me at edge of my chair.
Love it! No Rules rules. x
Hmm that above comment was me, was still logged into t’husband’s blog.
There was me sitting ready for the equivalent of the Ten Commandments! You tease you P! Do I feel better – umm- YES!
Jeez Paula, I was waiting with baited breath there for you to enlighten me as to everything I was doing wrong 😉
Well said. I follow just one blogging rule I set myself – have fun and enjoy it. (Is that two, do you think?!)
I think there is a lot of opinion, but opinion is, by its very nature, subjective. The problem is that people get sucked in and believe it, and worry that their blog isn’t good enough, or that they have nothing worth saying, when in fact ‘just being’ is good enough – in my (equally subjective) opinion! x
*pats arms soothingly* S’actly x
Tongue firmly in cheek but the message is sound – we all need to stop worrying so much! x
LOL! I had to go and have a look then… love the header pic x
Would I really do that to you? xx
It’s not my place to say so, but from where I’m sitting I’d say ‘not a lot’ lovely girl x
Tsk, that’s absolutely two Rosie – but there’s no rule against having two rules so I think you’re ok x
I’m a great believer in blog anarchy
Are we anarchists? I love that 🙂
oh, thank god.. was worried for a minute about the rules.. I’m not good with rules…
“I am an anarchist!”
I’m with TheMadHouse.
ANARCHY!!
Rawrrr.
Funnily enough I was trying to think of a good way to write a post just like this – you did it perfectly 😀
xxx
You got me!
Ha ha brilliant! 🙂
Phew.
Lol, glad there are no rules BUT…….what about etiquette? (ok, I will slink away now as i don’t mean to cause trouble but Rachel got me into a bit of a tizzy there thinking of the twitter/meme etiquette lol)
Thank God for that! If there were any, I’d be breaking most of them, even if only unintentionally (is that a word?) – see that would probably be one broken right there!!
Great and totally true! xx
I think I love you! Very well said, my thoughts exactly and perfectly put!
May I tentatively suggest one rule? which isn’t of my own invention but of a blogger I read, of course I now can’t remember which one..no matter
“blog like there’s no one reading”
I think that’s a good one to keep in mind.
Skulks off again…
So, the first rule of Blog Club, is that there is no Blog Club. Right? Yeay. Skips off to write something controversial and guaranteed to raise eyebrows.
Lol! Fantastic 🙂
YAY! LOVE IT- no rules – maybe some etiquette – but that’s just like in any situation.
Sometimes you talk a lot of sense.
