It looks like a kindergartner's art project but I just started a blog. I've only done two posts and they are very basic.

Congratulations Jill for starting a blog.
When I look at your blog via your link all I see is the lovely photo of you and then your list of teams you are on. Should there be something else?

Honestly, my poor blog has been neglected. I find I get more traffic on my facebook groups.

Congrats on getting into blogging. I checked just now and no posts are showing yet, just your homepage.

Way to go! Once you get rolling with it - you'll see potential in everything to be a blog post!

Very nice! I checked it out, but the posts aren't showing up yet? (The only clickable links were for social media and the email link.) Do you think you might have accidentally scheduled them for the future, or maybe they're saved as drafts instead of being published yet?
Just a heads up, I would not include my "real" email for the public to see. (Maybe you did make that email address just for the blog?) What happens is that "spambots" search the web and harvest all of the email addresses they find and then mountains of spam (the kind where they don't honor unsubscribe requests, and possibly some with profane topics) starts to come in.
So if that email is one where you don't want to have to sift through spam that doesn't get caught (or have to check the spam folder constantly for any legitimate emails that may have been caught), then I would create a new gmail just for use on the blog. You might not want the spambots to have your real name, so you could choose something like the blog name instead if you like. (You can link your gmail accounts together so that you don't have to go to too much trouble to access all of your gmail.)
Good luck and happy blogging!
