So, what is a Liebster Award? It is an award given by bloggers to bloggers ... a way of saying- " I appreciate the work you're doing and I enjoy reading your blog... now pay it forward!". Google it, and you'll see tons of recognized blogs.
The word "liebster" in German means: adj. favorite, preferred above others; liked or loved above others {source: babylon.com}
Basically this is a way to get new bloggers' {under 200 followers} blogs out there and recognized and to let you in on some facts about the person who spends precious time blogging for the good of others.
So, here are the rules:
- You must post 11 random things about yourself.
- You must answer the questions that the nominator set for you.
- You must create 11 questions for the people that you nominate.
- You must choose 11 blogs (w/ less than 200 followers) and link them to your post and let them know they were nominated.
- You cannot "tag back" the other blog, but leave a comment on this post with the URL of your Liebster post so I can learn more about you and see who you nominate.
