Where WordPress bloggers support each other with feedback and advice.
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 more information about custom domains, advanced design options, and other enhancements for your blog? Find the WordPress.com plan that’s right for you.
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.
To help us make the Community Pool a productive space for discussion, here are some tips and guidelines 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, as well as for not starting numerous threads in a single Pool.
- 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. Also note that including multiple links in your comment might automatically put it in the moderation queue, which will delay its publication.
- 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.
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.

definitely read what you want, imho. First, as a writer, who you read will influence how you write, and who wants to sound like a lot of authors one doesn’t like very much? Second, as a reader, I feel you–I have spent the last few years trying to read mostly for work, and then feeling guilty that I wasn’t reading as much as I wanted. Over Thanksgiving I decided to read what I wanted, usefulness be damned, and I have read more since then than the rest of 2017 altogether. Life is too short. Good work and good luck on your resolutions!

Great post! I loved it. It is always fun to read happy post like yours.
Some feedback regarding your post: You can use inline links rather than pasting the URL of the link in between your post. I think inline links are neater. So when you are writing a draft, you should see a chain icon. Use that.
Similarly, for differentiating between your post and the story, you can maybe use italics or a horizontal line to divide the two sections.
LikeLike
Hi, thanks for your comment, and for the comment on my blog too. Yes, it is a happy and hopeful story, at the end of the day. And I know a few bloggers have told me they would try the ‘ritual.’
With regard to your feedback. I tried putting a horizontal line between the preamble and the story but it is very faint. There doesn’t seem to be an option for a thicker one (surprisingly).
When you talk about ‘inline links,’ I understand what you are saying. I just feel that with the URL, people know can see what they are clicking, that’s why I did it that way. But I’ll give your suggestion some consideration. Thanks again.

Happy Monday Everyone,
I was recently asked by one of my readers to do more Adobe Illustrator tutorials on my blog since that is mainly what I talk about but it seems like I have a bit of writer’s block. Do you have any suggestions to get rid of writer’s block? I write about a specific topic so I cannot always use typical writer’s block solutions but any suggestion you have would be perfect.

Hi kelcie,
Sometimes when I am having a hard time writing I step away and just let myself relax and not focus on writing. I also will keep myself busy or try a hot shower or something soothing. It can be different for everyone but I found not thinking about it inspires my imagination to wander. Hope that helps 😋

I am a programmer and kind of hobbyist. I recently discovered that whenever I am writing a program or writing a blog draft: the hardest part for me is to get the first word/sentence in.
Suddenly that blank piece of paper is more daunting.
My solution: get anything on that paper. Hell, just write ABCD… but dirty it. Get it started, get something started. The only time inspiration actually strikes is when I am doing something but you won’t get an idea out of thin air.
Since you are writing about a fixed topic: it might be a good deal to plan your posts like a textbook chapters and post them regularly.
I hope it helps

I have always found that writing a list of random things that pop into my head or words or thoughts or whatever you decide helps me. Sometimes it’s just the trying too hard aspect that blokes me. Other times I’m just not in the mood. I’ve found that if I write roughly the same time every day, even if it’s just for five minutes, it’s better than nothing. But the best advice? Relax. 😊

Whenever I hate to write about a specific topic which I am familiar with but can’t seem to write about, I first of all try writing, in bullet form, everything that I know about the subject matter. Then, I take a break, forget about it and relax. I like to swim or run, to get my mind off it and get the blood flowing. Then, I take a long bath and keep relaxing till the next day. After a while, I look at the bullet form list and I decide what is useful and what should be crossed out and from their, I try to make some drafts. Usually it works. I hope it does for you!

As suggested by others, stepping away helps. Many times I’ve been stuck with what I started not knowing how to continue or finish. Only to step away from the thought process and get a spark of an idea. Just a change in the chain of thoughts helps I suppose.

Taking breaks is such good advice. I draw quite a bit, and there’s nothing quite like stepping away for half an hour and looking back on your work with fresh eyes (and then, of course, you notice all those annoying mistakes).
But secondly, when it comes down to it, just write. No matter what comes out of your keyboard, just put something on the post. I think you’ll find that the ball eventually gets going, especially if you know what you’re talking about, and it certainly sounds like you do! Good luck!

Hello to you as well! I read your writing and it’s wonderful, it reminds me of something an old friend of mine would write. The Story of a Bath was very good though I would have to say that Remembering Grandness is my favorite.
I also checked out your About Me page and it was very nice as well. I’ve curious about what it was you wrote when you were younger. For so many people to read it, your words must have touched them in some way.
Happy New Year!

Just read your blog on Romance novels and I can absolutely relate.
I too believe it gives us all weird out of the world expectations. And there is no love at first sight it’s just an attraction of May be infatuation at first sight .
Liked the way u wrote. 😊

Hello Everyone! I started blogging on WordPress about 3 weeks ago as it was long due. I wanted to do it for a very long time now. I have written about 11 posts as of now. I write poetry- blank verses mainly, about my journey in medical school and I plan to wrote about books and other stuff that holds significance.

Maybe you already planned to do this, but I’d be interested in reading, what medical school was like. In comparison, to what your views are before and after, maybe a “4th wall break” of sorts.
