Have you just published a new post and are dying for some feedback? Are you redesigning your blog and could use some layout or design advice from your more seasoned peers?
The Community Pool is for peer feedback and advice. Looking for more specific information? Check out some of these resources:
- Learn, a series of step-by-step tutorials for those just starting out.
- All our posts on building an audience and growing your traffic.
- If you’re stuck for inspiration, here are our Daily Prompts and other ideas for writing topics.
- A roundup of posts on blogging etiquette.
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).
Looking for free, self-guided courses to help you get started with your blog (or revive a dormant one)? Check out our current offerings at Blogging U.
To help us make the Community Pool a productive space for discussion, here are some tips you might find useful:
- 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!
- 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.
- If you haven’t looked at our Commenting Guidelines in a while, now might be a good time.
- No running on the deck.
Are you a new blogger looking to share your very first post? We have a special forum for bloggers just like you in our weekly First Friday posts.

Hi Retrato,
I love your pictures. Absolutely gorgeous!
I noticed you mentioned the photographs are available for prints, but it was not clear how to order prints. If you are looking to sell prints, maybe have one page providing that information (price, etc.). Or link to another website where you sell prints.
My other suggestion you can take for what it’s worth, understanding that I love writing and I don’t know photography. So maybe my suggestion is worthless. But I like the page 35MM: India because you gave me some of your insight. There was added information and thoughts that I could think about while I looked at the photographs. Other pages, such as Aotearoa: Turakina lacked that extra writing, and I could not fully appreciate the photography.
Hope my suggestions help some. If you are willing, I’d love feedback on my blog. It’s new, and I’m still figuring it out, but my theme is about learning from travel. Thanks! https://confidentadventurer.wordpress.com/

If desired, you could include some text with the images that you post — nothing crazy, maybe a sentence for every third image. If you want to focus on photography, you don’t want to overwhelm folks with words, but a bit of text could explain a shot, or the lens you used, or why you like it so much.

I actually didn’t know you could do that, but I’ll definitely make sure to look into it! An about page sounds like a pretty good idea, and I’ll definitely be adding categories:) It’s makes it a bit easier to figure out what you actually want to read, since I write about a lot of different subjects.
Thanks a lot for the feedback! I’d love to check our your blog too.

Oops just came across this post after leaving you my other comment. I would say one of the pages can be an “About Me” page – even if you still wish to remain anonymous, readers like to know who they are reading. Maybe a little about you, and what they can expect from your blog?

Yeah, I’ve thought about that too:) I’ll probably end up doing that.
Thanks a lot for the feedback!
