  • About Blissfully Domestic

    Welcome to Blissfully Domestic. The online magazine devoted to real life.

    We are 100% written and managed by real women; women who write as we bounce babies on our knees, women who spend lots of time in the carpool line, women who need coffee and women who are tired of traditional magazines written by 100 pound 23 year olds fresh out of college.

    We are a perfect example of the strength of women coming together to share our knowledge, speak our minds and support each other. The 300+ Blissfully Domestic Divas, our writers, love sharing their knowledge and expertise with our readers. We all work together to build the magazine that reflects YOU, the reader, your interests, your life, and your bliss.

    Blissfully Domestic is designed around a wonderful main page that works as a portal to all 15 of the individual channels. Each channel has an RSS feed. This way our readers can subscribe to each individual topic to customize her subscriptions to her interests.

    We all love reviewing new products and hosting giveaways for our readers. If you want your products to be shown to hundreds of thousands of readers. We will soon have 15 individual channel pages built. We will accept private advertising on each site that is top quality and will benefit our readers. All product and advertising inquiries should be emailed here.

    If you are interested in joining the Blissfully Domestic family and becoming a writer, please share your URL, areas of interest, and small writing sample to me here. We are honored to provide you with a platform to show off your work and drive traffic and new readers back to your home site. We believe in the amazing power and strength in our voices as women. Blissfully Domestic strives to encourage, connect, empower and bless all the writers and readers together.

    blissful-delights About Blissfully Domestic

    Karla Porter is the first to admit that she will never give Martha Stewart a run for her money. She knows all of the things she should be doing, but doesn’t ever find the time to get it all done. She don’t have the tidiest house, and definitely not the cleanest. She doesn’t bake homemade bread or sew her children’s clothes, but she loves taking care of her family in her own way. It was because of this realization that she came up with the name “Blissfully Domestic“.

    She is a Christian, wife, mama (to 4 kiddos), writer and designer. Her current exercise regimen consists mainly of attempting to scale Mt. Laundry; though she hopes to run her first marathon in the next year. She realizes that she has turned into a computer geek and flaunts is proudly.

    You can find her blogging about her life and her faith at her personal blog, Looking Towards Heaven. Her current project, launching in November, is creating an internet/technical site for women. Additionally, she designs stationery and blog designs at her business, Fruition Designs. Her Mommy Cards have been a Parents Magazine top gift pick.

      Hello Allison,

      I found blissfully domestic just recently and fell inlove with it right away. I just started blogging recently because I wanted to start writing again after leaving writing behind for nearly two years. I currently have two blogs both of which can be seen on Blogher.com. The First is called Living In Durham http://livingindurham.wordpress.com and the other Booster Shots for living http://boostershotsforliving.blogspot.com and my own business Frostines Edibles a gourmet online Nut Free cookie company that ships to the U.S.A & all across Canada. http://www.frostinesedibles.com

      I would love to work as a editor in either your family or food channel. I notice you have the financial section would it be okay to offer busines information in that section pertaining to starting a business, opening a retail store, getting a loan, getting customers and so on? Those three areas are my strengths so have a look at my blog and let me know if you would have me over, thank you so much and I look forward to hearing from you shortly.

      Kind Regards,
      Alice

      Hi there. I’m new to BlogDom but 30 years in the writing industry. Acually, not even launched yet. I was signed up for Blogher, anxiously anticipating a lot of info for a newbie. I’m a single mother and this free conference on a non-school day is going to cost me $120 in childcare. Am I going to learn some 101 or is this a fun reunion for the blissful veterans out there? Do not mean to sound sarcastic here. Just a little nervous, so-to-speak, and not knowing what to expect here. I’ve searched for answers on the site and haven’t tapped into any so far. Please help. Thanks,
