Community Pool

The place for advice, feedback, and friendly blogging conversation.

Have you just published a new post and are dying for some feedback? Did you recently start your blog and could use some layout or design advice from your more seasoned peers?

Tap into the wisdom of The Daily Post blogging community and leave your question here in the comments. Others can then click through and offer input either on your site, or in the comments here (feel free to indicate which you’d prefer).

To help us make the Community Pool a productive space for discussion, here are some tips you might find useful:

TIP: To keep from losing your place in the comment thread while you visit others’ blogs, right-click on a link to open it in a new tab or window.

  • While you’re not required to, we encourage everyone who requests feedback to also reply to at least one or two other bloggers who need some help. Spread the love!
  • The Community Pool comments section can get quite big — and starting duplicate threads doesn’t help. Thanks for not posting the same question more than once! We tend to delete duplicate comments asking for feedback on the same post.
  • On the subject of duplicates: please don’t repeatedly share links to your blog or your blogging event. Duplicates will be removed. It’s a bit spammy, after all.
  • If you’re looking for quality feedback, be as specific as you can. Questions about a particular post tend to draw more comments than ones about entire blogs. Questions about specific design elements are more likely to be answered than ones asking for general layout advice.
  • We discourage leaving links without a more substantive message or question. These are often overlooked by other bloggers, and we frequently remove them to make the comment reading experience smoother.
  • Please keep all comments civil and constructive. The idea is to have fun — it’s a pool, after all!
  • When leaving comments, please remember not to add your blog’s url as your signature. It’s kinda spammy: after all, your handle links directly to your blog.
  • If you haven’t looked at our Commenting Guidelines in a while, now might be a good time.
  • No running on the deck.

  2. Hi everyone! Hope you are doing well. I have a blog dedicated to marketing campaigns that are done with a view to empower its customers. I also write some pieces on the digital media ecosystem and most often than not try to take a different view of things we already know. This is my most recent article, do have a look:

  3. Hi 🙂 I would really like people to read my “Nepal Is Beautiful” post because I hope you learn something from it. I was born in Nepal, and with what has happened with the earthquakes, I decided to write about my home country. Please read it! I hope you like it 🙂

  4. Hello all!
    I’m brand-spankin’-new to wordpress, so please take care of me!

    I’m writing a series of novels, and I plan to post by the chapter. So far my humble site only has my Synopsis and Origin Story, but I have the first chapter ready to post.
    I’d like to get my blog out there and get some feedback from fellow writers and fantasy fans, as well as check out ideas for design. I guess I;m saying I could use all the help I can get… But I also would love to check out anyone else’s writing blog and make some collaborative friendships!

    Anyway, thanks for your time!
    A.V.
