Blog ‘Spring Cleaning’ – Day 6
Day 6 – 27 must-read tips & tutorials for bloggers
In today’s lesson, Problogger Darren Rowse asked a few of his blogger friends to share the posts that they believe would be most helpful for those of us looking to improve our blogs. There is a lot of good stuff to read there. My favorites are Chris Brogan’s blog and Skelliewag. I can sit and read those blogs all day… and don’t miss Chris’s recent post – My Love for Blogging.
Another easy-to-read blog for newbies is Blogging Basics 101. I think I went through that one post by post when I first started.
Today’s homework?
- Learn from successful bloggers. Visit a few of the 27 links suggested by Darren at ProBlogger. What did you learn that you can apply to your blog? Which brings us to task #2…
- Apply something that you learned on your blog.

Wish me luck!!

It’s not too late to catch up! After all, we’re only like one week into spring, right?
One thing I’ve noticed: the days I get the most traffic (today will be my biggest day EVER) are the days when my blog is linked by many people on FB or Twitter or on a personal blog – especially if those re-posters have TONS of followers! No way I draw this kind of traffic just on my own (sadly). My hope is a few of the people who are first-time visitors might come back. I think I got one new follower today. That’s something, right?

That’s the perfect reason for retweeting your own posts several times! It’s likely that someone else will, too.
This was a GREAT challenge. Wow! I simply hadn’t spent much time on Chris Brogan’s site. I have followed him for a while on Twitter, but never clicked over much. Shame on me! He is such a huge wealth of knowledge and I plan to go back on a regular basis!
I can’t thank you enough for bringing this challenge back to life for me, Mariana!

He is pretty great, isn’t he? I regret not meeting him in person at Disney.
Oh, I thought for some reason that you had met him there! What a treat that would be. Although, I may fumble over my words if I ever met him in real life. And, there is always next year! I hope he is at Disney again…I plan on putting that one on my calendar for sure!!
