How to sign up: PostADay / PostAWeek

Here are two challenges we’re organizing: Post A Day and Post A Week.  You can pick which, and then you’ll be committed to posting once a day, or once a week, for all of 2011.  We’ll support and encourage you from this blog every step of the way.

You can join up any time – don’t worry if a few days or weeks have gone by, start now.

Signing up is simple – do the following:

  1. Post on your blog that you’re participating (you can grab a sample post here).
  2. Start using the tag postaday2011 or postaweek2011 with your posts (tips on tagging here).
  3. Subscribe to The Daily Post via email thru the sidebar, or via RSS, and you’ll start getting reminders and inspiration every day.
  4. If you’d like a badge for your blog’s sidebar, get one here!

Once we see your first post, it will help us get a sense for how many people are involved in each program.

And if you need a new blog, it’s easy – go here to grab one.

Got it? Awesome. Glad you’re on board.

  2. Better late than never. I committed myself to producing a post each week at the beginning of the month (February) and have achieved it with a little discipline. It’s a great idea and very rewarding… but I could do with some help getting more visitors!

  3. OK, so almost at the end of the month of February but decided to start March anew. Still gives me 9 months to blog once a week. If that is long enough to make a baby, then it is long enough to create a habit.

  4. I’m still allowed to sign up since I joined less than 2 weeks ago right?! I love it so far – and will definitely meet the 1/week requirement! I’ve got lots to say about living well and reaching your best life 🙂

  5. So I am VERY Late in noticing this, but I’ve been posting each 5 days a week since January. Recently shifted over from Blogger to WordPress and loving it, so I added the postaday2011 tags to all my blogs.

    Glad to have caught the train, however late I may be!

  8. Very frustrating. Suddenly I am not showing up in postaday20111 and according to WordPress I have no posts tagged that way. As of two days ago I was showing up. I have attempted to repost 3-6-11 4 times and nothing. Anyone else have this issue?

  9. I didn’t really know this challenge existed but I have been trying my best to post once a day. I have even been planning ahead and scheduling posts to be published sometimes a week in advance. I’ve been trying hard and I’m glad I found a community that’s been doing this as well.
    I gave myself Sunday as a day off because it’s my least viewed day.
    To start I want to sign up for the post a week challenge even though it’s been two months but then again I just found out about this. And then maybe if I see that I’m keeping up with my daily posts I’ll sign up for the post a day 🙂

  10. I have posted a new photo in my humorous photoblog of my own captioned photos every weekday since Nov. 1. Mine is a Mon.-Fri. blog (105 posts to date): http://thedailygraff.com/

    Question: I more than meet “a PostAWeek,” but does the fact that I don’t post on weekends disqualify me from signing up for the “PostADay” category?

  11. I’ve decided to make the switch to wordpress.ORG, and I’ve transferred all my content to my new site. I still plan to post weekly, but I’m wondering if I’ll still be part of the postaweek2011 community now that I’ve essentially “moved out of town.” I can continue to use the postaweek2011 tag on my posts, but I don’t think they’ll get seen since I’m not on .COM anymore.

  12. Post a week for me, sometimes more. I “signed up several weeks back,” put up a little tag and we’ll see where it takes us. It’s gone pretty well so far… 🙂
