As I said recently on my other site I hate this part of the week. I dislike having to say no to so many people who bid to have a spot on my site each week.
I had an amazing 15 bids to choose from today. Just out of curiosity, why do you guys bid on my site? I know it’s not only because of the price. I charge 50 credits but I do work for them by making references to my new renter frequently. Is it because I have half decent stats in my past rentals history? Or because you get permanent links on my site as a bidder and the chosen renter? Just wonderin’.
I had almost decided to pick the new option to accept the first bidder, but I’m a little afraid of that option. I usually like most of the sites that put bids in, but what if the first bidder turned out to be a site I don’t like or that I would have a hard time thinking up things to promote them and get my readers to visit? With the luck I’ve been having this week that’s probably what would have happened.
After much thoughtful deliberation I’ve decided to go with Va Va Voom as my renter this week. I’ve admired her site since I first came across it. I love her writing style, and it turns out that she’s a wonderful artist. All the graphic images on her site have been created by Ms. Va Va Voom herself.
She’s recently discovered that she has a fascination with Big Butts. You should visit her and find out how she came across this recent discovery about herself. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed when you visit her site. It’s lovely to look at and use and her writing style keeps you entertained and interested in reading more.
Amazing site!
I’d really appreciate it if my visitors would take some time to visit a few of the sites that put bids in this week.:

It is no surprise to me why people want to rent from you. You’re a class act, a good writer, you’re interesting, and you area generous landlord.
No don’t let all that go to your head.
Excellent choice, by the way. VaVa is one of the coolest in my book. She’s the only one I know of in my sidebar who plays MMORPGs. That’s enough for me!

I started blogging not long ago and when I first got into Blog Explosion, your blog was one of the first handful of blogs I really enjoyed and still do! You’ve got a great atmosphere here and it’s always a pleasure visiting your blog.
