BESTeam! We Need YOU!

Sunday - Coffee and Cake
weekly musings, articles and mostly babble...

We Need YOU! The great thing about the handmade community is the way everyone helps eachother out in some shape or form. Be it a feature, a tweet, a hosted giveaway, or even some advice, we all come together as one big crafting family to pay it forward for eachother and for other causes. I LOVE being a part of this which is why I wanted to dedicate todays post to a team I am part of and most active in. That is the BESTeam on Etsy. BESTeam as you can see from the image (if you have images enabled!) stands for Boosting Etsy Shops Team, and so far we have literally being boosting eachothers web presence and shop/blog traffic on a weekly basis by writing up features of each members work. I myself as a lot of you know had dedicated an entire day each week to do this for my team which is on Tuesdays. I feature a LOT of people on my blog weekly so it has been nice to have a day especially for one of the teams I'm part of.
I do enjoy being a part of this team so today I wanted to put out a call for any Etsy sellers with blogs that may wish to be a part of the team. The criteria really is only the passion and drive to help and and feature other handmade artists (as they will for you too), and the way we rotate means that everyone get's to feature someone different and someone ALWAYS 99% of the time should feature you regularly! I can't think of a better way to build up your backlinks and gain more web presence. I think the team is transitioning into a new development which will allow members to post monthly instead of weekly, which is perfect for those that are a little time strapped. But it's something that I am only just aware of so we'll have to see how it pans out!

If you are interested in joining please stop by our Yahoo Group or send a convo for more info and I'll be happy to help out!
