Some visitors are just impossible to find, others have so many places to visit and you must choose...it is a little frustrating. Don't care for the word verification either, especially if I am short on time. But I guess you could say these things help us build character, right? lol<br /><br />Have a great week!Karen Langehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18177923284595298347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6083612851716281896.post-1942128840941646952014-03-03T18:40:36.366-08:002014-03-03T18:40:36.366-08:00I HATE the word verification.

Meanwhile, nine of those blogs were old and obsolete, so they should be deleted.<br /><br />Word verification bothers me a lot since captchas have become more difficult.<br /><br />I also don't like Google profiles. Some bloggers don't have a link of their own blog on them.

Despite the occasional potholes on the blogging road, some most positive outcomes.<br /><br />I most certainly relate to your concerns. One way I always am aware of postings is those who have the feature that allows you to follow by email. I do this with your site. The word verification does my head in. I keep it as simple as possible. My biggest peeve is those who have me directed to Google+. It becomes a magical mystery tour just to find their blog. <br /><br />A good weekend to you.<br /><br />Gary klahaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613505424843475639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6083612851716281896.post-67959135715403236392014-03-01T09:43:54.345-08:002014-03-01T09:43:54.345-08:00Well done for four years blogging.

Like you, I like to visit followers and support them, but some leads go nowhere at all, just a picture.<br /><br />As for the word verification, I resisted that for so long, but then noticed that spammers were taking advantage of that. When verifying on other blogs, I don't really mind that too much, since I remember how much more annoying it was to learn spammers were abusing my blog. And it was a lot of work to go back and remove their posts.Elizabeth Varadan, Authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01708206753256682635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6083612851716281896.post-77280283547215407042014-02-28T07:12:26.438-08:002014-02-28T07:12:26.438-08:00They bug me too - and I'm afraid to say, if I ...They bug me too - and I'm afraid to say, if I can't find them, or can't decide which is the right blog to read, I give up.

And...Awesome you've been blogging for 4 years.<br /><br />And yes, I try to follow people back and sometimes have to hunt through their blog links only to find they haven't posted in years. Your suggestion is a good one.<br /><br />And I hate the word verification too because you can't always read the words to type in. Sometimes I have to do it 3 times to get it right.
