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.

  20. Out of a busy schedule, and being far from social media, I sometime post on topic that strikes in my mind first.English not being my first language, I don’t use that strong words with deep influences. I am not getting even a single feedbacks on what I write, and need someone to really help me out since I am keen on expressing what I do feel on certain topics.
    Someone please, help me out.

    1. Not getting feedback is pretty common, even for people with a lot of followers. I rarely get comments myself. Some things that might help:

      1) Include a question in your post, something to encourage the readers to express their opinion and comment.
      2) Comment on other people’s post. It encourages people to comment on your stories.
      3) Give us a specific post of yours that you’re seeking feedback on.

      2. You’ve made a solid start and your posts are easy to read. I like the look of your website but you have a text widget which needs updating and I would urge you to write an About page so your readers can learn some more about you.

    1. Welcome back, and congratulations on your award.
      I’ve had times where I’ve been on hiatus for a while and what brought me back was an inspiration. There were just so many great things I wanted to write about and that pushed me to start blogging again. Maybe to get your mojo back you could immerse yourself in great writing and other similar blogs.

    3. I don’t see anything wrong with your post. It’s well-organized and has relevant examples and Scripture to support your points. In my experience, it’s difficult to predict which topics will capture the most attention. I agree with “steflifeandstuff” to keep writing from your heart. https://gracelead.co
