#SocialMedia #EpicFail - Excessive #Giveaways In The #MomBlogger Community

Since when did the niche of review blogging become so over the top ridiculous? Contest entrants trying to win several of the same item to sell on Ebay/Amazon? Cheating on Entry Forms?
When did Blogger's start feeling the need to keep up with the Jones', and have a constant stream of "reader giveaways"? It wasn't like this when I started blogging - at all.

Yes, I'm all for a couple, maybe even a few giveaways a month - but it has swelled to something that is clearly out of control. When did folks stop reading blogs, to well, just read blogs?

Blogger's purchasing (yep, literally BUYING Twitter, Facebook, GFC Follower's) or "Stumbling" (Stumble Upon) their way to the top? This has gotten OUT OF CONTROL - It's like #MeanGirls except it's real life .... and we are NOT IN HIGHSCHOOL!

Don't get me wrong, I have met some awesome mom's since I started blogging! There are many truly amazing mom blogger's that are good people, and great at what they do.

But then there's also this whole other side of thing's that is litterally overshadowing everything else that's good (great even) about this community.

This is turning into a #SocialMedia #EpicFail in the #MomBlogger Community (all in my humble opinion of course).
