How to Go About Coblogging?

I think you should do whatever makes you most comfortable. What are you looking for? What kind of posts do you want the blogger to do? I think once you etch out your plans then I would go forth and just find someone who fits your blog and decide together how often you want them to blog. If that makes any sense :P

But I also want to look for someone who's interested IN coblogging, though for that I'd rather someone I know since I won't be going in blindly then.
I run my blog along with two of my friends. But recently there have been a lot of people in this group who have sent out applications for co-bloggers and have gotten plenty of responses. If you cannot find anyone you know to be your partner in blogging, then I would suggest sending the application to people in this group. I promise we won't bite.

I agree about finding a blogger here if you can't find someone you know.
@Sophia If an application is more suitable I say go for it since you're looking for two separate things.

I'm only curious of any ideas in case. :3

I posted on this group and two others that I was looking for a co blogger. I had a few people that responded, but I went with the one I was most comfortable with. She is amazing! I am glad I found her. So, I would say do what you feel the most comfortable doing.
I feel like getting a co-blogger due to time difference. There's practically a 12 hour time difference between here and USA, and it feels like I'm missing out on interacting time...

The others might be on a waiting list instead... :p
Hi! I was just wondering about about co-blogging. I recently made a new blog and as mush as I love it, I don't think I'll be able to keep up due to studying. But at the same time I wouldn't want some stranger. It's my baby ;)I'd love to send out an application but how would I go about that? What do I ask?

But at the same time I wouldn't want so..."Most people tend to ask the basics - Name, Country, Review Samples (or Writing Samples could work as well if they don't have a review), sometimes maybe someone will ask WHY you want to blog at a site. I did have to ask some people if they could handle two blogs as well (not easy as it seems!), so that might be a question you may ask after a person applies and you're interested in having them as a coblogger.
But as a few have already said, Melissa, go with who you're most comfortable with. In reality, I'm more comfortable with blogging with 2 of my real life friends (who will be joining soon) and thus speak more (heh, conspire more) with them while I rarely make a peep to my current coblogger aside from the occasional blogging related stuff.
EDIT: Social media is also found as well in an application. Twitter and Goodreads are the most common ones, but definitely Goodreads. I am, however, by no means an expert in coblogging since I started several months ago.
I'm sort of wondering how I should go about coblogging. Should I do an application, which would feel really weird because that's like asking a random stranger into my house... or should I do that and allow those that I'm interested in having as a possible coblogger guest post for a certain amount of time?
