We've been watching the British mum blogging phenom from the get go; the community has grown from just a handful of bloggers to nearly 2,000! But what really makes up and drives this eclectic group of highly opinionated bloggers? We want to know!
Are you a British parent blogger? Please fill out this benchmark study; it is anonymous and will only take a few minutes. Please ask your blogging mates to do the same, the more the merrier. We'll share the results when it's done. Who knows maybe we'll discover that the online middle class mum stereotype is all wrong. Or that you all blog as a type of therapy. Regardless, this is you chance to be heard.

because i had to sign in to bmb again here from hk (but still under the name 'grit') i also got a welcome and an invitation to supply the marketing info. in light of my first comment, it was tempting to see it as a wind up, but i'm sure it's just one of those things that happens...:D

Hi, Becca messaged me and explained that you're a bit behind in welcoming new members and that you're keen to get parent's views, which I appreciated. Looking forward to seeing the results of the survey.

Hi Tilly, it’s the ambassador’s role to help make our newest members welcome and point out what’s new/useful on the site. The survey is our current big initiative, and it was simply a heads up. We're sharing the results with all our members so I hope you find it useful when it's finished. Sorry if it didn't come across that way. Welcome to BMB!

Hi there, I've had a message on my profile comment wall from a 'BMB Ambassador' welcoming me to the site and suggesting that a good place to start would be to take the parent blogger survey. Call me a cynic but I feel that the welcome has little to do with me being a new member and is a slightly underhand way to get me to complete the survey. My reasons for this are: - I've been a member of BMB for two months now so a 'welcome' seems to be a little after the event, - the parent blogger survey is in no way 'a good place to start' in my understand of the BMB site. It's a survey which is asking me for info rather than providing me with any. I'm more than happy to complete the survey to help you gather info and I'd completed the survey before I got the 'welcome' message. If you want to message people to ask them for help in completing a survey then by all means do so, but please don't message me in what appears to be 'we're here to help' way but which is actually just a guise to get me to complete your survey. I'm not intending to offend anyone with this comment. I've really enjoyed being a member of, and contributing to, the BMB site and hope to carry on doing so for a very long time. Rant over!
