I've got to prove a resultant sale to myself yet but it's early days.[/QUOTE]
I've had ONE direct sale I can prove! A lady came up to me at a "Puces des Couturières" and said she had read my blog and wanted to buy two Charm packs to make the quilt as shown there! I was soooo excited.... Other people have told me they read the blog regularly and I know that at least one of my readers has bought a product I recommended ( not from me though - I should be on commission!!:)) Otherwise the effects are quite difficult to quantify - I publicise events where I will be selling but can't really tell how many arrive at that event because of what they have seen - but there are a small and growing number of people who do turn up regularly and appear to be following me around...
At present I have no links TO eBid at all because I am still waiting (since the promises were made in April) for the means to auction items in French and English. I write the blog and my own website in French and English but there is little point in directing the majority of my blog readers ( who are French) to auctions when they won't even understand the title. As soon as the connection is viable I will link to eBid in the blog.
So the only connection between eBid and the blog at the moment is the other way round hopefully - forum members can (and do) read the blog and will realise that the materials required for the projects etc are available on eBid. I am not aware that this has brought me any sales so far.
