Back in October, we posted this blogging quick tips roundup and it’s amazing how much has happened in blog world since then! Lots more tips to scoop up. Personally I love quick tips types of posts, that either have fun lists or just a few really great resources. Obviously no one likes when they click on a post like this and it doesn’t have quite the payoff they’d hoped for, but we think you’ll find the posts below truly helpful. Especially since they come off as quick tips, but are really, really well thought out pieces of advice. Enjoy!
1. When you’re stuck, it’s sometimes best to go back to basics (I know this from lots of experience!), like incorporating these 10 helpful tips for new bloggers via Bloggers Bazaar.
2. Elizabeth Kelsey Bradley posted her 2016 blog trend predictions back in December. The post isn’t a quick tip, pe se, but has a lot of info on where blogging is going this year that you could break down, consider, and implement piece by piece.
3. We loved posting resources on making money blogging, so I was pretty happy to come across A Beautiful Exchange’s reasons to skip the sponsorships. There are SO many different ways to generate income blogging, and her post is a helpful (and gentle!) reminder that you don’t have to do what everyone else is doing. Personally we have a couple sponsors we love to keep on our sidebar, so we’ve found other ways to promote our own content elsewhere on the homepage. Win win!
4. Lastly, we don’t talk about video much here on TBM, but Modern Mint Designs posted a pretty foolproof list of vlog do’s and dont’s, for anyone looking to give it a try!
What are you guys up to this weekend? Did you see our 2016 creative book list? We’ve both decided to check out Wired To Create first, so if you’re interested in reading along and discussing it with us, make sure to grab a copy! More details to come :)
