More Blog Challenge Fun

Sharing is caring!

I just can’t get enough.

Last month I had so much fun participating in a blog challenge that I have decided to give another one a try! Posting on a regular basis, as well as engaging with others, are key factors in helping you grow your blog and your online presence. They go hand in hand. Last month I saw an increase in visits to my blog, and I met a lot of new people. Even better, I found some great new blogs to follow! I hope this month will be more of the same!

The details are a bit different with this challenge. I only have to post 3 times a week. After writing every single day in April, this should be a piece of cake! However my goal is actually going to be to write 4-5 times a week. I’ll be happy to have the weekends off!

It’s highly suggested that we plan our posts ahead of time. Planning? What is that? I must say I am not a good planner. I have a running list of ideas that I have stashed over at my account with ListPlanIt, which is a pretty cool place to organize and keep track of all your lists. Since starting to use their site, I have actually found myself getting a little more organized. I also have tons of blog posts started and not finished. I tend to write until I get another idea, and then I start something new. But on the plus side, if I am in a hurry, I can generally pick something from my stash and finish it up quickly. Does anyone else do this?

The other thing that was suggested to us in this challenge is that we concentrate on writing good content. In other words, don’t just write about any old thing. Certainly I am as guilty of that as anyone else. I’d like to think that most of my content is good, but I have been known to write about things like my cat sitting under the faucet. Which I find amusing. But for this month (and going forward as well), I  am going to try to concentrate on making sure I write about those things I want to be known for on a regular basis. I’m sure I’ll still write about my pets though too.

So here I go again! Wish me luck!

I love living vicariously through you with these. :) I must be losing my mind because I swear I commented on this one but maybe it was one I read from my phone and was going to comment when I got on my computer. :)

I need to go back over to that site and see what's going on...the last challenge I did was a lot more interactive! But I am enjoying all the writing.

I'm not so great on the planning side of things either! I fly by the seat of my pants!

I used to have a stash of posts ready to publish - but there days I have nothing in reserve! Your challenges are inspiring for me to get more organized with this.

I am so bad about starting something and not finishing it! I have pages upon pages of those just sitting there. Who knows if they will all ever get finished!
