[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I follow LoveTaza closely bc I find her to be facinating. This whole "oh shucks, just a mormon wife!" thing when in fact she's like a business tycoon and she's pregnant w kids four and five. I'm dying to know how much she makes. [/quote]

I think they make quite a bit of money, because her husband quit his job and they moved into a much bigger apartment.  She’s part of that Mormon mommy blog circuit.  I have followed her off and on for years as well, but she’s getting super commercial lately, however at least she’s upfront about when something is sponsored (and I think all her posts are).

Mormon mommy blog circuit?  How bizarre.  That's a thing?   Now that you say it the one Mormon mom I know is also a blogger.  Weird.  [/quote]

It's big time a thing. I would guess that most of the "big time" mommy/lifestyle bloggers are Mormon. Just a few (some of these are now defunct, I believe): Love Taza, NieNie Dialogues, Pink Peonies, Hey Natalie Jean, Hungry Runner Girl, and even Dooce is an ex-Mormon. I think they are able to view it as a ministry in a way.

I have mixed feelings about Gomi. I've seen that it can be very cruel, and I don't think that is okay. And I think it's sad that there are successful bloggers who have quit as a result of Gomi's criticisms. But also, I kind of think it's fair enough for people to want a space to discuss all of this for-profit content based on mass consumption, particularly when it is being sold as "aspirational".
