Many bloggers like to build a community. Knowing you are in the company of fellow bloggers can make all that time writing those well-crafted posts a much happier experience. Loneliness as a blogger is not a great experience for most of us. We need somewhere to go where we can share our thoughts on the blogging world and of course the World in general.
Well, now there is a blog where all types of bloggers can chill out and share a thought or two.
That blog is called The Piss Biscuit|A Bloggers Soapbox
And don't be put off by the title. The Piss Biscuit domain name began as a personal joke. But PB tells the story much better than I can... And when you think that a domain name like this can become a very successful bloggers community, then you can see that PB is an excellent community blogger.
But let's head on over to The Piss Biscuit and read the posts...
Interesting stuff: Blog Design; Wordpress Theme Tweaks; Building and Selling New Websites; Great SEO Advice; Advice on How To Make Money Online; Competitions; Freebies; and occasional Rants from PB, all of which can provoke a whole range of responses.
The comments at The Piss Biscuit are great too. Blogging tactics are discussed and thoughts on many subjects are aired. The comments are almost as interesting as the posts at times (and most of those are great). The occasional argument ensues too, but it is amazing how The Piss Biscuit Community works. Even long-held disagreements in the Make Money Online niche can resolved here.
And now PB is building a brand new site for bloggers called BlogFluff, where bloggers can find everything they need to build a better blog and make money blogging. And this will all be for free. There is even a Blogs Classified Section, where you can advertise your blog for free, or find other blogs to buy. It's early days, but PB is a fast worker and it won't be long until BlogFluff is fully in action.
All great stuff and just what a blogging community is all about. You don't have to agree with everything PB says, or with other commentators at The Piss Biscuit, but you can comment there and be listened to and taken seriously, while reading great advice. I wish more blogging communities were like this!
But now PB has given us bloggers a dilemma. His latest post is about the Piss Biscuit being up for sale. Is The Piss Biscuit For sale? PB says no; the rumours are incorrect. I hope he doesn't change his mind.
But PB is a busy man. He is a leading web producer and running a blogging community alongside his work, plus helping many of his community members with their blogs, has taken its toll. At times like these, a blogger needs to know his work is really appreciated.
So go on over to The Piss Biscuit and join in with this great community of bloggers and let PB know that all his hard work is appreciated.
I'm sure this friendly and helpful blogger will give you a fine welcome.

@ Zania: Thank you so much for this totally awesome post! It's got to be the best review slash plug I've ever read. To me the most meaningful thing about it was that it's obvious you think what I'm doing is right... and you actually read my blog... you don't just scan through it. I'm grateful.
I didn't ask for this awesome gesture, but I'm fortunate to have received it. You've got me re-focused and in gear so I'm on my way back to the PB you guys all love to read.
Simply amazing. Thank you.
- Your friend: PB

Hi PB,
I'm glad you like the review. It was meant.
And you are right. I do read your posts, not just scan them, and I bet many of your readers do the same.
You have a great community at The Piss Biscuit.
Enjoy it!

Great review! I agree with everything you said about piss biscuit...I told him he better not quit! Keep that old pisser going!
I love his blog, it's a mix of education and entertainment....a place to kick back, relax, and still learn.

Hey Zania
It's been a while, huh? I guess everything has been good on you.
What a wonderful review of PB! You really came out in defence of PB just like the rest of us. That's what friends are for, huh?
By the way, did you just change the platform of your blog? I remember you were using Typepad before.

Hi JK,
I'm glad you liked the post.
We had to do something, didn't we? :)
I'm glad PB listened to all the comments, emails and this post.
Should be good things to come.

Hi Yan,
glad you liked the post too.
Yes, PB has lots of friends - good ones too.
But I think he realises this.
As to me - it has been a while. I had some family matters to deal with. Not nice ones. So I was offline for two or three weeks. I'm still catching up.
And no, I haven't changed my blog platform. This is just another one I use ;)
