TGF Rated 3rd Annual Awards – Apology

Brenda — Mon, 02 Jan 2012 16:05:03 +0000

For some reason 3 of the posts did not go out at the beginning of December and so they have only just been posted today, this means that I will not announce the winners of the TGF Rated 3rd Annual Awards til Monday 9th January 2012. Below are the links to the posts, where you will find the finalists. Please vote either by leaving a rating out of 10 in the comment box or on the rating system.

Huge apologies for the tech mishap and good luck to all the finalists.

WOW!!! Where to begin…I can hardly believe that today I am writing a post which is rounding up the last 12 months, it really does not seem that long since we were rounding up 2009 and looking forward to 2010.

I want to start with saying a BIG THANK YOU to you all. Readers, contributors and featured companies, without you TGF would not be the blog it is, so once again many thanks for your continued support, it is very much appreciated.

TGF has had a bumper year with lots more people tuning in to read our posts, on average we have 17 posts a week going out, 7 days a week, being viewed not only on the blog, but on Facebook, Twitter and other social media outposts. We are grateful to the support and feedback that you, the readers give us, it helps us shape future content and deliver posts that you wish to read.

We will have a couple of new features to blog about and new companies to post about and if you have any suggestions on how we can improve the blog, then let us know.

As many will know today is the day we name our 2010 TGF Rated Award Winners. 2010 was a bumper year for reviews with so many products being put to the test by our reviewers. We then came up with our list of finalists at the beginning of December and then asked you guys to help us choose by voting for your favourites.
