I'm behind in my Blog Improvement Project so I'll be putting Week 2 and 3 together.
Week 2 was about brainstorming. I read the articles and got some good ideas for brainstorming. I need this on my other blog more so I'm not doing very much brainstorming for this one.
I do know I want to do more than just reviews. I don't post much on other books and reading stuff and I'd like to, and not just reiterating what's on everyone else's blog.
I liked ProBlogger's Mind Mapping idea but I don't know that it would work with this blog. Most of my posts are reviews and I don't know that I could get post ideas from reviews. If I did, they would be on the topics that the books were about, not on books and reading. Maybe if I take my last 5 non review posts.
As for implementing a regular feature, I already started Saturday Search but that hasn't been going very well. I'm going to try it a bit longer before I decide to scrap it. If I did another feature, it would be nonfiction related as there is a lot more for fiction out there in the book blogging world.
As I'm behind, I'm still working on brainstorming.
Week 3 is Blog Post Bingo and is a fun idea.
By midnight Feb. 14 we have to do as many of the following types of posts as possible:
- A Link Post - share a series of links your readers might find interesting
- A Short Post - less than 200 words
- A List Post - simple as it sounds, a list of some sort
- An Opinion Post - take an event, news, or another blog post and share your opinion on it
- A Poll or Question Post - post a poll or ask your readers a specific question for feedback
- A How-To Post - You’re an expert in something; big or small, share how to do it
- A Long Post - more than 700 words
- A Review Post - self-explanatory, I think
- A Definition Post - show your expertise about a topic related to your blog
- FREE SPACE - a type of post of your choice (Giveaway Post)
Doesn't that sound cool?? So I'll be working on that as much as possible.
