Jan 30, 2015 / Blogging U.

Blogging 101, Blogging 201, and Writing 201 start soon; ready to register?

Still thinking about diving into a Blogging U. course? You’ve got a few days left!

Note: Blogging 101 and Blogging 201 are the same courses previously offered by Blogging U. Feel free to take them again, but be aware that we will cover the same topics.

Blogging U. courses are a great way to work toward your blogging goals in a supportive community. This February, we’re offering three:

  • Blogging 101: Zero to Hero (February 2 – 27): four weeks of bite-size blogging assignments to help you publish posts, customize your blog, and engage with the community.
  • Blogging 201: Branding and Growth (February 2 – 13): a two-week challenge to help you define your brand, build your audience, use your stats to grow your traffic, and bring your older posts fresh attention.
  • Writing 201: Poetry (February 16 – 27): our first poetry-focused course! Another two-week course, we’ll offer daily doses of inspiration and explore poetic devices and forms.

I enjoyed this so much, and made a bunch of new cyber-friends! Thank you for putting this together, and for all the great lessons! I’ve enjoyed learning all of the ins and outs, and I even got chosen for a couple of ‘awards’ during this process. Thanks again!

You can learn a bit more about each course here.

The fine print:

  • Courses are free, flexible, and open to all.
  • You’ll get a new task to complete each day, along with our best advice and favorite resources. Do them on your own time, and interpret them however makes sense for your specific blog and personal goals — we’re not grading you, we’re not checking to make sure you complete every task, and there’s no “wrong” way to use the resources we give you.
  • We’ll post new assignments here on The Daily Post each weekday at 12AM GMT. Each assignment will contain all the inspiration and instructions you need to complete it. Weekends are free.
  • Each course will have a private community site, the Commons, for chatting, connecting, and seeking feedback and support. Daily Post staff and Happiness Engineers will be on hand to answer your questions and offer guidance and resources.

To register, just fill out this short form. Registration for each course remains open until the day the course begins. Note that you won’t receive an automated confirmation email, but you’ll receive a welcome email with more detailed instructions a few days before your course(s) begin.

Registration for Blogging 101 and 201 is now closed, but you can still register for Writing 201: Poetry:

      1. Thanks, I’ve checked again but all I see is:

        “How do I register?

        Easy! Just fill out this quick form. Registration for each course will remain open until the day the course begins.

        Note that you won’t receive an automated confirmation email, but you’ll receive a welcome email with more detailed instructions a few days before your course(s) begin

        Happy blogging!”

        And no link.

      2. There’s actually no additional link. Under the “How do I register?” section, there is a form that’s embedded into the current site, which you then fill out. Are you on your phone? I haven’t checked out the mobile view but maybe try logging into the site through a laptop if you are able to? Sometimes, mobile devices display pages funny and don’t load all the content.

        Otherwise, if you like, you can give me your first name, e-mail address, blog address, and which course(s) you would like to register for, and I can always just type it in for you and submit on your behalf.

      5. That’s weird it won’t work for you but I just registered you for the course. See below:

        “Thanks for registering! There’s no automated confirmation, but you’ll receive a welcome email with full instructions a few days before your course(s) begin.”

  17. Wow, I had no idea resources like this were even available — how cool. I just registered for Blogging 101. I look forward to the course, as well as meeting new friends on here!

    1. Folks who registered through Saturday morning have gotten their welcome emails; folks who register over the weekend will get them before Monday. If you think you should have already received one, check your spam to see if it’s gotten caught there.

      3. They’re both closed now and have been in progress for several days, but both course will repeat throughout the year. All the assignments are publicly published here as well, so you can take a look.

  24. I’ll register AGAIN and perhaps this time I will discipline myself to make it happen! Let’s see if I can keep that resolution this year! Everyone here is my witness: I’ll check the Daily Post everyday for Blogging 101 and 201 in February! (Now I really have to do this!)

  25. Blogging U has been a great place for resources for me and my blog. I’ve learned so much from #blogging101 (which I took for the second time) and I’m taking #blogging201 starting this Monday. So See you guys there.

    By the way, I’ve started a twitter group. I love the energy and support that the participants give each other in the courses so much I think I’m addicted to it. I’ve never had twitter group before so if I’m not doing the right things, please let me know.

    I’m not affiliated with BloggingU in anyway. I’ve just taken the courses and I’ve got so much energy, ideas, met so many friends through the Blogging courses and I’d love to keep in touch with everyone. So I came up with this idea. If you would like to keep in touch with everyone from the blogging courses … feel free to tweet with #bloggingu

    Maybe we can also set up tweet chat once a week in the future!
