1)
Write the post and include pictures in almost every
single post – it is rare but occasionally I write a post and don’t include
pictures. Personally I post daily –
every single day. Originally my goal was
one post a day but now it is rare to not have at least three posts a day.
2)
Schedule the post – this is important because some
posts I want to be first on my email feeds; some I want to be top post
throughout the day etc…
3)
Share on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and if a book
review – Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Goodreads and/or other.
4)
Share personal “stuff” – I love my kid-isms.
5)
Participate in groups and/or parties – interact, say
hi.
6)
Comment on sites of other bloggers – we all work hard
and love what we do. We are our best
support.
7)
Give Klout and Alexa support – hopefully gain some in
return.
8)
Spread some Facebook and Twitter love by sharing and
retweeting.
9)
Participate in and host, co-host giveaways.
10)
Most of all – I do whatever allows me to be me and
helps you to be you!

Thanks for this post it really helped me focus on some important things to get my blog on track.
ReplyDelete#2 Is important based on my preferences but also based on my ability to attract certain business and authors. Some have a great deal to offer as far as visibility but require top post of the day; or for the post to go "live" specifically at midnight. Basically #2 is - make sure you pay attention to all fine print for scheduling purposes.
ReplyDeleteSOme great tips! Thanks for sharing!!
ReplyDeleteGreat list! I try to do all of them. My biggest issue right now is I need to GET AHEAD in posting! I used to have several days of posts scheduled in advance, and then came the holidays, and I'm way behind. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI also try to get ahead - especially from April through October where I am always on the road. But that becomes less and less possible. When I don't have a post for a certain day I just pick up the morning paper and grab a topic. Then figure out what I am going to write about that topic. I prefer to be more organized than that but have resorted to the random method a time or two - especially when I am too sick to do much else.
ReplyDeleteInteresting list! I'm trying to get better organized this year. I also want to host more giveaways, it seems to be something that my readers love.
ReplyDeleteThat's pretty much what my list looks like. I have a really hard time keeping up with all of it though. I definitely need to get more organized.
ReplyDeleteI struggle sometimes too - especially when I have to work late or the kids have some activity that throws my schedule off. But this is what I try to do daily.
ReplyDeletethose are great tips. Every day is like a learning experience for us bloggers. I've been blogging for more than 7 years now but i still don't know a lot of things
