More Sites to Get YOUR Blog Seen...

Last year I wrote a post which drew a lot of attention - Sites to Get Your Blog Seen. I've come across some more sites where you can submit your sewing and crafting projects to be featured, so today I'm reposting, with additions to the original. It's a LONG list!!!

You've written a great post, so how do you go about getting it seen? Whenever I write a sewing tutorial, or post about a handy sewing tip, I submit it to various sites, in the hopes that they will feature it. Today I thought I'd show you some sites that have featured my work, as well as others that I plan on submitting my projects to in the future.

Even if you're not interested in having your projects featured, you may find some new to you sites that are full of ideas and inspiration.

I'm not talking link parties in this post. The sites that I'm mentioning, are, in the main, curators showcasing the work of others. Many, but not all, are large sites that could potentially send a lot of traffic your way.

Most of the posts I have had featured are tutorials, but I have had other posts showcased as well. Each site varies as to the type of projects they will accept.

Many of the sites come under the broad umbrella of craft, whilst others are quite specific in what they promote. Obviously I have a bent towards sewing, but I have included other sites as well.

With the exception of Google, AllFreeSewing is my highest referring site. You can submit patterns, links, tips or tutorials for publication. Once you have a few projects featured, AllFreSewing will set up a profile for you. Here's mine.

I get lots of traffic from CraftGossip when they feature one of my projects. I submit mainly tutorials, but you can submit crafty ideas, gossip or stories that are relevant to many different types of crafts.

I've recently had several projects added to FaveQuilts, a new to me site. As FaveQuilts is published by the same parent company as AllFreeSewing, I'm hoping that this will generate a lot of traffic. As long as it involves some sort of quilting, you can submit your project. It doesn't have to be a full size quilt.

I've only had 5 photos accepted by CraftGawker. Submissions are based on photo quality, hence my many, many rejections. It's worth persisting, though. You need to set up an account to submit projects.

Fun Family Crafts only features tutorials. The craft project must be for children (toddler to teen), either to be made by a child, or for a child. Here are the projects I've had accepted. You need to set up an account.

Totally Tutorials feature tutorials, recipes and patterns. It can be craft related, a recipe, blog tutorial, pattern, pretty much anything as long as it describes each step and has photos along the way. At times, the submission form is closed and I assuming this is when Kym has too many submissions.

Freeneedle features sewing patterns, tutorials and projects. Freeneedle doesn't seem to refer as much traffic as it used to, but still worth the effort as the submission form only takes a couple of minutes to fill out.

I get a lot of traffic from Sewing 4 Free. Run by Mayra from So Sew Easy, Sewing 4 Free features free sewing patterns and tutorials.
