[...] Darren at Problogger posted a blog case study on the Kiddley blogs, and something he worte in his post caught my eye: I love the way that Claire and Phil are expanding their blogging by picking related topics and are leveraging previous success to drive traffic to their new blogs.

I hear what Jeremy’s saying, but I don’t personally see anything wrong with an affiliate site if it brings people stuff they truly want to read about, and I certainly don’t see any evidence that Kiddley Links is passing off their posts as reviews.

Really lovely design on both blogs. Fantastic stuff : )

I’ve seen a lot of these shopping blogs popping up and I’m not sure how I feel about them. Most are not much more than thin affiliate sites with little value. They aren’t even putting their hands on the products they are reviewing.

I guess if you can find that niche that really intrigues people it could be a good thing.

I’ve been a fan of hers for a while; the fact she’s a fellow Melbournite doesn’t hurt either! ;)
