This August, I’ll celebrate my third bloggerversary, and believe me when I say it’s gonna be a special month. When I started Afrobella in 2006, I wouldn’t have even dreamed it would find the kind of reception and regard it’s managed to find. I am truly so blessed, and so grateful to all of you who read my blog.
Recently Konector, a site that ranks the online impact factors and audience profiles of blogs around the world, ranked the top 50 Beauty Blogs. The complete ranked list hasn’t been released yet, but I’m so proud to report that Afrobella is number 7 on the list, and “has set itself up as the beauty site for African Americans.”
Can you see me, smiling from ear to ear?
I am so thrilled, and I plan to continue doing the best that I can — celebrating you and you and you and you, women all shades of beautiful.
In other happy happy news, I was recently named #12 on ChicagoNow’s Top 25 Twitter Users in Chicago list. And I just got here!
Needless to say, that’s tremendously encouraging news for this recent transplant. Every day in every way, Chicago proves to me that I made the right move at the right time. SO happy to be here, and SO happy to be on the list. Thank you, ChicagoNow!
Whew, that’s enough good news for one post. Stay tuned for more wonderful things this month — August is going to be beyond fabulous for Afrobella readers, TRUST!

I’ve been reading your blog for almost two years now and I’m so glad I found you. You cover such a wide variety of subjects — hair, make-up, fashion, fragrance, music, celebrity, politics — all with such respect. I’ve learned about etsy from you. I’ve bought hair care, skin care and make-up products because of your recommendations. You’ve help make me the beautiful, smelling-good sister that I am! Congratulations, Afrobella, and thank you!
Congratulations!! You are truly an inspiration and I really enjoy reading your blog everyday!!!

Happy Anniversary in advance! It’s noted in my diary. You also look like an exotic flower in your lavender coloured top with your fellow bloggers. Keep it up!
Wow! Congratulations. You are such an inspiration. When I took a break from blogging, I would read your beautiful, informational posts and I was motivated to stay in the game and keep at it. Thank you.
Keep believing in your abilities and continue working hard. The best is yet to come.
Your mum and I, we are very proud of you.
So exciting! Congratulations on everything you have achieved!
