Community Pool

The place for feedback, advice, 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.

  1. So I startsed my blog about a month ago and m pretty sure I have no idea what I am doing. I needed an outlet to write about those funny and all to real mommy moments and so I thought I would leap into it and start a blog. Here’s the thing…other than linking to Facebook….how do I get people to read it and comment? If love to make it more of a place for moms to discuss and/or vent…

    1. Every bloggers greatest challenge; getting people to actually read what we write. Sometimes it’s just dumb luck and someone stumbles across your blog. But, for the most part I’ve found the best way to increase your readership is to read other blogs. Interact with them, comment, and talk to people.

  4. I’ve recently started a mental health blog detailing my experiences as well as my advice to others who might be suffering. I’d love some feedback, just generally, on what you think of the site as well as the content.

    I tried to keep the layout simple as to not overbear the content.

    Thanks all
