SIPB Membership Group Rules
Sharing, Inspiring, Promoting Bloggers Facebook Group is a bunch of friendly bloggers dedicated to Sharing, Inspiring and Promoting our Blogs, created by Esme Slabs and assisted by a Moderators Pamela Jessen and Peabody Amelia.

This post may contain affiliate links, which means we may receive a commission, at no extra cost to you, if you make a purchase through a link. Please see our full disclosure for further information.
Please, may we respectfully ask that all members be sure to participate a minimum of two to three times a month! If you can do more, so much the better for you as this will provide more exposure to your blog and other social media and a way for us all to get to know you better.
This group has been brought together for us all to make new and existing connections better, by commenting and sharing our posts and blogs we enjoy.
Each day we post a new opportunity for you to share and discover and all posts will remain open for 48 hours. I share a weekly ‘program’ and it can be found under the “ANNOUNCEMENT” feature in order for you to see which threads we deal with in the upcoming week and thus helping you make sure that you schedule your participation accordingly.
We have two SIMPLE SIPB Membership Group Rules:
1. For each link you share, please check out and support at least 2 others.
2. Please keep your shares and links within the comments of that day’s thread.
Together we can and will build a loyal and supportive group where we can share our individual expertise and knowledge, and we all bring something unique to this group, that we can share on the days that the schedule depicts.
As a group, we do not tolerate discrimination or abuse of any nature. Also, this is not a marketplace, and dropping of links on days you are not invited to do so, will result in exclusion from the group, as will spamming, trolling or any other unsavory act.
Should you have any questions, queries or suggestions, please do not hesitate to PM me, your host, Esme Slabs directly.
We have the following files where you can add your information
- SIPB Members Info – found at the following link: http://bit.ly/2xXxLZGAs we have encountered problems with Facebook restricting and only allowing 200 links in this type of document, I moved this file over to my blog, so please leave your information as a comment and I will be happy to update the list as soon as possible. I apologize for the inconvenience, this may cause, but this is the only way I could find to still continue and build out this wonderful SIPB Members Info document. Thank you for your understanding, support, and help.

Please INVITE and ADD your fellow bloggers to join us and let’s share and help each other.
Thanks for reading the rules, but do not stop here, as you will find the most crucial piece of information below in order to be approved to join the SIPB Facebook Group!
If you would like to be accepted into the group, you will need to provide the secret answer when prompted.
Why did I choose the name “Esme Salon”, as it has nothing to do with a hair salon or beauty salon? Well, I decided on EsmeSalon as this is in tandem with our weekly Linky #SeniSal at the Senior Salon.
So when prompted, here is the secret answer to the question: #SeniSal
Why should a group have rules?
If unable to follow rules, then any platform will fall into mayhem, and it is not acceptable. So please, as listed above, may we respectfully asked for your help and co-operation to make this a fun and happy blogging place for all.
Blogging help and #Afflink
Should you look for any blogging related information on how to legally set up your blog, I am an affiliate and you can check all the various courses over at TinyLoveBug
I have nothing but good words for the TinyLoveBug courses. I have worked through the GDPR Compliant Blog course, and refer to it on a constant basis. Had it not been for this course, EsmeSalon will not be compliant and may have been subjected to fines or being sued.
TinyLoveBug courses are the best I have come across and will continue to use and recommend them to all those that wish to listen and get help from THE BEST as it has helped me tremendously. I am suitably impressed and will remain a client for a long time as TinyLoveBug truly goes the extra mile to ensure they have up to date information in their courses. I couldn’t have asked for more and I have learned a whole lot of new things and will be back for more courses in due course.
I have also worked through and used the Affiliate Disclosure Template and am an Affiliate for TinyLoveBug which is just fantastic. I have also enrolled in the Blogging for New Bloggers Fast Track FREE Course and Pinterest for new bloggers courses and am chomping at the bit to get started and learn more from the TinyLoveBug gurus.
With their help, I can now grow my blog to the next level after years of struggling and not knowing what I was doing. From the first day, they were very helpful and answered each and every question I asked.

Wait, please before you leave, subscribe to EsmeSalon and you will be the first to get all the great news and information directly into your email inbox.

Nope. I’m afraid I’m getting a ‘page not available’ message: “The link you followed may have expired, or the Page may only be visible to an audience that you aren’t in.”
Cathy, I am not sure why you are unable to access this file, as we have other new members that added their info there on Nov 20th. Go to the SIPB FB group page, then under ‘announcements’ you will find “see all (3)” click on that and then it will open up and you will see the SIPB Birthday List. Note, you have to access this from your Laptop or Desktop to update the files! Unfortunately, you will not be able to do this from your Mobile/Phone. You will find the Announcements under https://www.facebook.com/groups/SharingInspiringBloggers/announcements/ and the group under https://www.facebook.com/groups/SharingInspiringBloggers/
If you are still unable to update this just let me know and I will add it for you.
I hadn’t tried that way – I’d been using the bitly link – but I just went in and when I clicked edit nothing happened.
I clicked on the little arrow under ‘Edit doc’ and got the message ‘There was an error while processing your request’.
When I tried refreshing the page I got the ‘page not available’ message again, so there must be something on my laptop that doesn’t like birthdays (I know how it feels…).
I’m 1st December (I won’t say the year, but my kids have organised a ‘significant birthday’ do.)
Cathy, thanks, I will add you on the birthday list. Happy birthday in advance from me, and I can just guess your birth year, but that’s your secret.
phew!
Just a heads-up that the birthday link isn’t working for me.
Be back later to read more – what a good idea for sharing.
I’ll have to come back later for some dedicated reading…

Just dropping in from the link in this week’s #SeniSal. A big ‘thank you’ for all your hard work running that, and also to you and your co-conspirators, er, colleagues, sorry, for this group too.
Clive, thank you for your kind words and appreciation! I love what I do, and this means a lot to me that you all benefit and am happy
