New Astrology Blogs Page on Reddit
November 9, 2011 – 11:42 am | One Comment

redditThe astrology blogging community has grown so much in the past few years that I find it kind of difficult to keep up with what everyone is doing.  It is hard to sort through all of the articles that are constantly being published on the various astrology blogs, and I know that I’m missing out on some interesting stuff as a result.

In order to help alleviate this issue I’ve created a page for astrology blogs on Reddit recently where people can post links to interesting articles that they’ve found.  Then readers have the ability vote on the articles and discuss them, which will help to ensure that the really important posts won’t go by unnoticed by the wider community.

This will be useful for those who read astrology blogs because it will allow them to find interesting articles that they otherwise might not find.  It will also provide an excellent opportunity for bloggers to promote their work and get more exposure for their material.

So, if you have written or read an interesting article on an astrology blog recently that you think that other people should know about, please stop by and submit the article to the Astrology Blogs page on Reddit.
