why do people make new posts on blonde to tell us (and spam us) that their blog is updated rather then just pasting the  information onto blonde? Do they make money if they get more hits or something? Some dude started two new topics to tell us about his two days at the EPT, and all he included was a link to his blog. Whats that all about?

its not specifically one person, but you do see it a lot, "blog is updated if you are interested" and they put a link to their blog in,  rather then just pasting the text into the relevant thread on blonde.

Are you simply curious or do you actually have a problem with people doing this?

In that case, it's probably a combination of (1) laziness in not being bothered to paste the whole lot (2) attention seeking (3) hoping people will read the rest of their blog entries (4) wanting to increase traffice on their blog and (5) attracting people over to their blog so they click the ads/affiliate links.

crazy how these guys can hit the control/V function to paste their blog link, but cant do the same for the content, even though its pretty much exactly the same effort to do so.

There may be an innocent explanation in that they want to increase traffic on their blog so people read future entries. There's nothing worse than writing a blog that you think no one is reading.

i agree, but why are they trying to spam their blog onto people that probably aren't intersted in reading it? on this forum you almost never heard of blog links, but nowadays a hell of a lot of post are accompanied with the golden "see my blog for details" tag. If they are gonna spam this site with their blogs, i want to know why they cant just paste the content on here as well as the link. Its intersting.
