Got this cool information from the lovely Blissful and Domestic and can’t wait to share with you all especially if you losing GFC….
So I finally figured out the big difference between a linky party and a blog hop.
Here is a blog hop that I found from The Hibiscus House who found it from It’s So Very Cheri and so on…
Basically you join in the hopping fun! Add your blog to the party and re-post the party if you want, then go and like some blogs and ask that they like you back… This is just sooooo much fun and a great way to rebuild followers from GFC.
Here’s what Cheri writes:
Many of you have probably already heard that GOOGLE Friend Connect will go away on Feb 29 for any one that is not with blogspot, but rumor has it that it is being completely phased out for everyone soon.
There is good news

There is a NEW awesome tool–Linky Followers
It has so many amazing features (that GFC never had). If you have not signed up you should. (yes you can have both.) I love the new tool so much and want everyone to enjoy all the new features.
…and did I tell you its super easy and FREE!
What better way to celebrate a fun new blogging tool than to have a party so break out your poodle skirt and saddle back shoes cuz’ we’re having a LINKY FOLLOWER PARTY HOP~
RULES:
1. you MUST have the LINKY FOLLOWERS tool on your site to participate. {You can have both the LINKY FOLLOWERS & GFC on your site but you must have the LINKY FOLLOWERS to participate in this party hop.}
2. You MUST follow the person who has the party on their site as a thank you.
3.Just add your blog button to the LINKY PARTY below.
4.Then grab the BLOG HOP code
You will find the code right under the Linky Party where it says CLICK HERE TO ENTER– just under that it says: WHAT IS A BLOG HOP? GET THE CODE HERE. Click on “GET THE CODE HERE” and enter it into a post on your site.
You can grab the party button code in the FOOTER at Its So Very Cheri. You can grab info from my post if it helps you with your post.
5. Then you follow other bloggers–(as many as you want) –leave each one of the blogs that you follow a comment letting them know you are following them and ask them to follow you back.
If you want to add the BLOG HOP to your own site you will get lots of new followers–(see rule #2)
…So do ya want to go Cruisin’?

I plan on HOPPING from BLOG to BLOG to follow everyone who follows me.
The internet it seems, never gets old.
Welcome to the new world of
LINKY FOLLOWERS…
If you’re a LINKY FOLLOWER subscriber, please follow me and I’ll then follow you back so we don’t lose contact on March 1st. Thanks!
This is a Blog Hop!
Hi Claire Justine!Thanks so much for stopping by and following through the LF hop. I'm here, quite happily following back!I've been staring intently at the cupcakes from Wednesday's post and willing myself not to go into the kitchen and begin a baking frenzy. The only thing stopping me is the fact that I have no beets, save a jar of pickled ones… and I highly doubt that would be at all good.Even if they don't make it onto my Valentine's menu, they will be made some time in the very near future.Have a lovely rest of the weekend!
wow..sounds great…will join now..;)Tasty Appetite
