Community Pool

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:

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.

  8. Hi there. I’ve been a blogger for over a year now. I only post once or twice a month due to lack of time. I’m looking to build readership and aiming for some feedback as well about the quality of my blogs, specifically whether it is an easy read, with ideas running smoothly from one to another or whether it keeps the reader engaged. Thanks in advance for your critique. Here is the link to my latest post. https://melindatrinidad.wordpress.com/2018/03/07/snowstorm-blast/

  12. Hi, all of you!
    How are you doing? All well I hope!
    It’s always fun to read all of the wonderful posts here!

    So I generally post poetry and writeups on my blog, but this time I put up a post on Feminism.
    Now hold on, don’t roll your eyes after reading the word ‘feminism’, I support equality and no form of superiority.
    My post is all about equality. Check it out if you also think strongly about equality! Let’s talk!
    You can check out my post here, and let me know about your views. I’d love to know about your views.

    ~Equality. Peace out.

    Also, you can go through my blog to see my poetry as well!
    Looking forward to feedback from you!
    Happy Blogging!

    Keep Smiling,
    Shruti Ohri :))

    1. I like the topic of your page and its clear structure!

      But an “About” Page would make it easier to see, what your page is about and if someone isn’t interested he can click away than

    1. Hi! I’m new to blogging also, and thought I’d read a few posts from other new bloggers to what other folks are doing. As a mom your blog is relevant to my daily situation. I like your post, from one to two. Seems to me your off to a good start. If you felt inclined to read one of my posts I’d love feedback.

  28. Hi, I would really appreciate your answers to these two questions: Do you like classical music? Why or why not?
    My blog and side project, are based on these two questions. And I want to start by getting your opinions on this polarizing topic. Do not feel shy, and no this is not just a pure get more traffic post. I am genuinely interested in finding out what people think, so I, as a classically trained musician, can then challenge the way this profession functions 🙂

    1. I’ve just visited and commented on your post. BTW, if you scroll to the bottom of your post and press on the previous post ‘Typical’, it takes you out of your site and onto the Daily Prompt page, so you might want to fix that.
