I love the being on the internet, as I think most of you know by now! I thought I would share with you all my top 5 most visited websites. I am not including social media, my blog or email, or other people's blogs, otherwise the list would just be links to all my social media accounts!
1. Bloglovin' - I spend a lot of time on here catching up on my blog reading, although it has been neglected this week. I definitely need a good catch up this weekend!
2. Netflix - Many a day or night has been wasted on here. It all starts with the phrase "just one episode" and goes downhill from there.
3. Tweetdeck - I spend way more time on here than I would like to. It's a fab tool, but I hate scheduling tweets. It's a necessary evil though, so it has to be done. I do find it useful when I'm taking part in Twitter chats as I can see the chat, my notifications and my main feed all in one place.
4. Google - Even aside from email (which I said I wasn't counting), I spend a lot of time on Google. Anything I want to know, I start here.
5. YouTube - This is another one I plan on popping on and watching one thing and end up there for hours. It's even worse at this time of year. I can't resist all the amazing sfx make up tutorials for Halloween!
What are your most visited/favourite websites? Let me know in the comments :)
Time for this month's theme reveal! The theme will be the online world. As bloggers, we spend so much time online. This month will look at social media, the good and the bad, plus some of my favourite websites.
As always, I welcome guest posts as long as they fit the theme of being related to the online world. For more details and how to submit a post, click here.
I am really looking forward to exploring this theme and I hope you are looking forward to reading all about it :) There will be lots going on, and you can subscribe to post updates via email, or follow me on Bloglovin' to make sure you never miss a post (widgets for both are in the sidebar).
Some favourite features will still be running: #AnythingGoes link up, thought of the day, Avon Haul and some book reviews :)
If there is anything in particular you would like to see me write about for this topic, don't be shy, let me know in the comments or drop me an email!
When you think of websites related to blogging, what pops into your head? My first thoughts are all the obvious social networks (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest and Google+ for me), blogging specific sites such as Bloglovin and of course, a million and one blogs.
I thought today I would share with you three websites that don't immediately spring to mind, but are still invaluable to me as a blogger.
1. Free Images
As the name implies, this site is home to free stock photos. I use this site a lot, if I haven't taken a photo to use on a post. There are thousands to choose from, and I have yet to search for something and have nothing come up.
2. Pic Monkey
I love Pic Monkey! I use it to design images, add text to images and to re-size photos. It is free (there is a Royale option that you can pay for, although I have never needed anything that isn't included in the free bit), and really easy to use.
3. Tweet Deck
Tweet Deck is fantastic. I mostly use it to schedule tweets - it's free to use, there doesn't seem to be a limit to how many tweets you can schedule, and there is no lengthy sign up process, you simply login using your Twitter details. I also use this for Twitter chats. If the chat is moving too fast, you can have a column dedicated to it, plus your notifications, and any other things you don't want to miss displayed at once.
I use other sites too, but these are the three I open religiously nearly every time I come on my blog!
Which non-obvious sites do you use the most? Recommend some of your favourites in the comments!
