Blog Goals

With this new year I've seen a lot of inspiration from pinterest and other bloggers to get organized and creative with blog building. Now I'm going to take what I've seen and incorporate a few things on my own blog. Specifically these few things:

Pinterest: I'd like to make my posts more pinnable. I'll try to incorporate a pin this button somewhere. 

Be Social: I need to remember that this is social media. I need to step outside of my blog and read more blogs and comment.

Research: I need to find more bloggers with my interests. I want to find more military spouse blogs, wedding blogs, craft blogs, college blogs. So if you know of any I should read let me know in the comments.

Round-ups: I want to do weekly round ups, of what I've done here and what I've seen out there in the "sphere"

Readers: I need to keep my readers in mind as well when I write so for the last thing. I ask you all what you want to see out of this blog. So if you could take the time to fill out this survey that would help me cater to posts that you all want to see more.

I'm excited to incorporate some new things soon! Let me know what you think.

  2. Thank you SO much for being my 500th follower! Seriously that small milestone means so much to me and so thank you! As Rebecca said above, I host a Saturday Instagram Recap every week! My posts go live at 9am with a place for you to add your links for other readers to see. I hope you participate! My IG is pearlsandcurls90 if you'd like to follow me! For other link ups, I always do Sunday Social with http://www.ashleylately.com/ and that's also a great place to meet other bloggers! xx
