Community Pool

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

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!
  • 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!
  • If you haven’t looked at our Commenting Guidelines in a while, now might be a good time.
  • No running on the deck.

    2. Hello! I just started following you, I love the way you write! I think its such a great thing to write short stories, its a great way of getting to know new cultures and to get a different perspective on things in an instant. I would love to read some stories inspired from things you see in India that maybe a tourist (like me) would never be able to see… I know you write fiction (and I´m not the expert) but perhaps within the fiction there can be a hint of reality? It´s just an idea! 🙂 Keep going!

      1. Thanks so much! I really appreciate the feedback. I do write fiction; however my observations are very much based on my experiences, as well as what I see around me. So yes, there is definitely a hint of reality in there. I usually add a new story every Friday. I would love to hear more from you in the future as well!

  12. Hello everyone! I am new to the blogging community, I am writing a blog about cities and how people play a part in making cities what they are today. I am looking for feedback, comments and opinions about the topic and about how I write, as it is sometimes a little technical, I am trying to hit the right balance.

    Here is my first city-related post: https://goo.gl/qvvZ17

    Also please let me know what you think about the lay out 🙂

    Thank you!

I’m not sure yet what direction my blog is going to take, but I’ve been posting about experiences in my life that I’ve wanted to write about 🙂 have no views or followers yet! Would really appreciate any advice anyone can offer!

    Thanks so much!
