The last few months I have had a lot of bloggers tweet me asking for my help or advice with one thing or another.
I would be asked questions like "How do Linkys work?" and "How do I join in with them?"
Most of the time I point them in the direction of an amazing post that either helped me or that I just thought were exceptionally helpful. Although I have never done one myself (Yet!!) there are some fantastic posts by some of the greatest bloggers out there at the moment, but more on them in a minute.
After one of the bloggers, Laura from Life with Baby Kicks, was asking for some help and extra inspiration and motivation on a post she was writing it lead us to an idea that's tumbled out of control:
A brainstorm about blogging that is otherwise known as #blogstorm.
#blogstorm is the ultimate in blogging linkys as it just that. A linky to link up all your blogging tip posts.
Posts of the like that can be found on Blog Club with You Baby Me Mummy or Blog Clinic with What Katy Said.
Technical gems like the posts from Potty Mouthed Mummy’s Newbie Class.
Amazing social media strategies such as the ones written by Single Mum Ahoy and Misplaced Brit.
Blog design tips as found over on Slouching Towards Thatcham.
Linky guides such as this one from The Dad Network.
Posts in short, which help you become A better blogger.
It doesn't matter if you've been blogging 5 years, 5 months or 5 minutes what we are aiming to do with this monthly linky is to help showcase all of the best tips from all of the best bloggers in the ultimate blogging brain storm... the #blogstorm.
The #blogstorm is coming, opening for the first time on the 29th.
Will you come get caught in the storm?

I always take a little pride when a blogger asks me to help them out, just a year ago I had no frigging clue what I was doing. Congrats Martyn way to pay it forward! Now if I can just remember to set my calendar for the 29th!
Thanks Gary. I do too! It's good to help others and we thought that it would be a good idea to put them all in one place. Look forward to seeing you here next week then!
Brilliant idea! Please can everyone tag me in everything ;)
Totally read this in 'movie trailer voiceover man voice' in my head! Haha. I love it. Obvs. But I'm obviously still gonna ask you stuff. As we discovered the other day, I am a little bit slow!
