The Bloglovin' Challenge

Illustrated by Jacqueline Davis Moranti


Since the end of Google reader (RIP), many blog reading enthusiasts were left to their own devices. Finding a good reader for your favorite site is hard, that is until Bloglovin' came into view. Bloglovin' is a tool the helps anyone keep up with their favorite blogs, easily and manage the ones you follow. As soon as Google Reader's demise came upon, I quickly hopped on the Bloglovin' wagon without much knowledge of it. I soon learned why it was an essential part of blogging. 







I soon learned of the many differences between Bloglovin' and the late Google Reader, many of which are much more favorable to the current tool. seems to be much more pertinent than GR by letting the reader read any blogs that they wish to read, even if the blogger isn't signed up with BL. Unlike with GR, you're not reading the articles on the Bloglovin' site, you read on the editor's site, just within a BL frame. This ensures that the blogger gets credit for the page view. 

The best part about Bloglovin' is that you can follow any blog on any platform including Wordpress, Tumblr, even Xanga if you so wish! With Google Reader, you were confined to just Blogger blogs.
With Burgundy Whispers being a little under four years old, it's still hard to be heard in the "blogosphere!" For the month of August, I want to try to gain new followers through Bloglovin' but for me to accomplish this, I need your help! This month Bloglovin' is challenging the voices of the unheard to gain as many followers as they can to get a spotlight and hopefully become heard! More followers means more exposure for Burgundy Whispers. More exposure can help me expand the blog into something bigger and better for all of you! Dear readers, help an up and coming writer find her way into the lime light! It's absolutely easy and all you have to do click on one of the Bloglovin' widgets on the right hand side of this page and you'll be directed to my BL page, then all you do is click on the follow button. If not then you can just click here.
