One month old, that is. Today, November 2, marks the one month anniversary of Candy Addict! To everyone that has made our first month a success, I thank you immensely. We have had so many more visitors in our first month than I could have ever expected. We have been linked from BoingBoing and we were even linked from AOL’s weblog and AOL’s homepage yesterday! Those links drove our traffic up immensely as did all the smaller sites that linked to us and said nice things about the site in the past 30 days.
THANK YOU!
If you like the site and have your own website, the one thing you can do to help us is to post a link to Candy Addict from your own site. For those of you with websites that use web buttons for links, below are a couple images you can use to link to us. I need to get my graphics person (my sister) to make some better candy-themed link buttons (Bonnie – are you reading this?).
Also, if you find any fun/cool/interesting candy sites/pages on the internet, drop us a line so we can write about it – we will be sure to credit you for the idea/link (and we’ll post a link to your site if you have one). Right now, my list of topics to write about is at 50, but I can always use more! Look for more great things from Candy Addict in the coming weeks and months. Thanks for reading!

Congratulations!
You know what I’d love to see (sometime in the future perhaps..)? The difference between US and UK chocolate (candy- but we don’t call them that) bars.
My parents often visit America (or canada) and bring back some great bars and its a bit of a tradition but the Uk has some that are better, some that aren’t. Different companies etc.
I could talk for ages about this so I’ll just stop there.
But good work!

November 3rd, 2005 at 5:46 amHey, congrats! For such a “young” blog, this has quickly become one of my favorites. My focus and that of my blog is chocolate, but if I come across some good candy ones, I’ll let you know.
RESPONSE: Thanks Shelly!!! That means a lot coming from an established candy/chocolate blogger like yourself! –The Candy Kid

November 3rd, 2005 at 3:02 pmFound you site today while prepare a lesson for my 6th grade health class. Our mian focus is studying body systems. I LOVED the Necco candy heart. I plan to share that with my studnets. It ranks up there with another favorite of mine – a knitted digestive system. What clever people live in Blogland. I tell my students that the internet is the “black hole of forgetfulness”.
