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.

Hello everyone!
We are trying to write down a “series” about our last adventure in Switzerland, following the Grand Tour.
This is the first one, and we haven’t finish to publish about the whole tour yet.
We also have lots of photo-galleries about Switzerland and Tuscany: so perhaps, you could give us advices to take better pics!
We hope you could enjoy this, and the related posts, and we’ll be glad to receive any feedback!

Hi, everyone! This is my first time participating in the Community Pool so I’m excited to interact with all you lovely bloggers. I wrote a poem recently titled “The End” and would greatly appreciate it if you’d read it and leave constructive criticism. Link to it is below. I also have other poetry you can browse through if you’d like. Thank you!

Hi 👋🏽. I’m having trouble deciding whether I should keep my recipe page as a “static” page or if I should create a “category” page for the recipes. The static page allows me to use a featured image, which I like. But the category page would automatically post anything I categorize as a recipe on my main blog page. Any feedback or insight into this?

Happy Friday people. Sharing my latest post with you. I wrote an album review on St. Vincent’s latest record ‘Masseduction’. This project came out towards the end of last year, so I have had some time to sit with it, which in turn always helps me really decide how I feel about the album. Enjoy! Feedback always appreciated.

…I consider writing to be one of my sole escapes from the confines of labels. Therefore, I have recently been surprised and perturbed by others thrusting upon me categorization within the blogging community. Please, let me be clear that though I write about topics of chronic illness and disability, I am not a “CP blogger.” I blog outside of the box; I challenge normative expectations by bringing awareness to their existence…
How do labels affect your life?
