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.

Hey blogging friends!
If you struggle with fear, then today’s post / podcast is for you. This week I speak with Kristen Ulmer, the former big mountain stunt skier, about her new book The Art of Fear.

As always, I’d love to hear what you think here or on the post itself!

Hey Briana, love that you use a grid layout. I wish my template had an option like that! I tried to “like” this post, but when I click the button nothing happens. Perhaps someone else can try so that you can determine if the problem is on my end or yours!

You know, sometimes I see blogs like yours and am reminded of why exactly I’m on WordPress in the first place. It’s a beautiful layout with even better content; and that’s how I know a blog’s something else entirely: When the content attracts me more than a pretty well-done theme. I know I might sound a bit much; but I don’t know, I had to express this; all the love 😊

I would love any feedback on the post itself, or the blog. As I have been increasing the number of posts I have been playing around with the menus and trying to get a good system of organization going.
Thanks 🙂 -Laura

I love when people talk to themselves; because I do, too!
Just kidding, I really like the feel of your blog, your pup is a beaut and your concept in itself is intriguing. Any further compliments, I think, would just be more adjectives of the same. (Did I mention your pup is a beaut?)
Good luck with the home; all the love 😊

Damn, this sounds like a life for the movies! I feel that if you do end up writing about the numerous fights in a jail library, it just might be one of your must successful posts. Can’t wait for more, keep it going, loved it.
