Can you believe it’s been a year since I had the little idea of the Bloggers Blog Awards? Nope, me either. This year we are back and bigger than ever…. I hope. Also, go give the dedicated BBA Twitter account a follow to keep up to date with all things award-y. Since last year we have had so much amazing support from everyone in the community, so we have decided it would be wrong not to do it again. SO WE ARE BACK.
The concept and structure is the same as last year, but now with added categories and having had a little shuffle around. Also, please let me point out that each, and all, categories are open to both men, women and everyone else. I have again taken the decision to not make separate gender categories, as we all blog together regardless of what we identify as in regards to gender. So if you want to nominate a man, woman or non-gender conforming person then just nominate them, there is no segregation here and there never will be.
Now let’s move on to the interesting bit of how it will work, how you can get involved, and more importantly how you can nominate the bloggers you LOVE.
The Bloggers Blog Awards (in association with Jewellery Box this year) came about as a way for the community to celebrate bloggers, as no other knows just quite how much time and effort it takes to run a great blog. A magazine or company doesn’t know that most of your Saturdays are spent chasing the last little bit of sunshine just to get a good photograph, or that nearly 60% of your free time is spent tapping away at your laptop. Other bloggers know, and other bloggers are the ones who are best placed to judge the amazing blogs out there. So that’s what we do, we celebrate our fellow hard working and amazing bloggers. If you would like to nominate someone then keep on reading.. Psstttt also don’t forget to leave a reason for your nomination as these are included in the awards day booklet again this year due to how much the shortlisted people loved hearing why you voted for them, and I shall be tweeting some out too.

cheap canadian generic tadalafil HOW ARE THE VOTES COUNTED?
- All votes are counted and verified by myself and an independent party
- Once votes have been counted the top 3 with the highest number of votes will be shortlisted
- The remaining 2 places on the shortlist will be selected by a panel of blogger judges – these are a panel of fellow bloggers (minimum 4 per category) who will read all the remaining blogs and score them based on set criteria, the scores will then be collated and the highest scorers shortlisted
- Judges will not be allowed to judge in a category they can be nominated for i.e. I cannot judge the beauty category
- The system has been set up to minimise vote manipulation and popularity contests – therefore a blogger with an amazing blog and 100 followers has just as much chance as a blogger with 10,000 followers. You only need 1 vote to be considered and even to go on to win.
Below are the categories you can vote in, along with the details on the rules for this category, not to mention the amazing sponsors and the prize that the winner will receive. At the bottom of this post will be the link to where you can actually cast your vote (finally I hear you shout).
