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.

I didn’t expect to lose followers after posting this political satire:
Hard to believe, but as a result, my follow count actually dropped some! And I didn’t think it was all that controversial! Oh well, c’est la vie.
Unfortunately, too many have dislocated their funnybone, or mislocated their sense of humor, as demonstrated by reaction to Michelle Wolff’s White House Correspondents Dinner monologue.
Additionally, there are many around us who still confuse opinion for fact, or worse yet, surrender ethics and morality for power.

True. An attack on someone’s credibility, or use of the “facts” is easily conflated as an attack on someone’s person. It’s weird, but debate has become very personal lately, and has led to many “unfriendings”.

Thanks, Kim. An unconditional assault on the truth is something that America can expect from foreign powers (ie.

It’s interesting to observe how different people react when I hit a political nerve. If it means losing a follower, so be it. But a loss of judgement–like deliberately merging the margins between right and wrong, and broadcasting this kind of rhetoric to sycophantic masses is scary and authoritarian…and irritating.

Many adults can agree to have different views and discuss them in civil ways. Others however, do not like to consider that their way might not be the only way, and stay stuck in a very narrow-minded frame. I would say you are better off keeping the readers who can read and appreciate your opinion than trying to satisfy the ones who will stomp away because their feelings have been hurt. Keep speaking your mind, I think in the end the people who matter are the ones who don’t want things sugar-coated, whether they agree with it or not.

Greetings to all the wonderful bloggers here!
I hope the week has started off well for you all.
I had begun writing this on World Autism Awareness Day (2 April) but wasn’t able to complete it. I was finally able to finish it up. This poem is my take on what could be on the mind of an autistic child. Special as they are, a glimpse of the parent’s love for such a child is what I’ve tried to depict.
I would be really happy to know of your views on it. Your feedback is much welcomed, appreciated and valuable for me. So let me know of the same through your comments and likes.
Do feel free to navigate around the blog to check out the various other posts.
Thanks!
Have a wonderful week ahead.

Is Social media hurting your creativity? https://bldaniels.wordpress.com/2018/04/09/social-media-kills-creativity/ That’s the subject of a post I recently put up.

A great post with pertinent information. I’ve mostly gone off social media the last few years. I get on most platforms sparingly, unless you count WP. I have never been the type to share my works with multiple people before they’re finished so I don’t have to worry about that. However, I will say there are times when I use Pinterest to help with the creativity blocks. Thanks for the good post! -Kelsey

Sure, you’re welcome! Instagram is one that I limit as well; it’s just not one I ever really got involved with.

In a word: YEP! Unfortunately, for creative types who want to write for more than just ourselves (and who know that we must do most of our own PR these days) it feels like a necessity. You’re smart to limit your time–and choose your social media channels (hello, WordPress!) wisely. And yeah, it’s a cliche and superstitious, but really, don’t talk about what you’re writing before it’s written.
LikeLiked by 4 people
The “author platform” part is really tough, especially considering even traditionally published authors are now at least partially responsible for their own marketing and publicity. I think like anything in life, there needs to be a balance. Concerning not showing work before it’s done, yeah, I truly believe if you start telling people about a piece before it’s done you lose some creative opportunities (even just subconscious ones) by getting “locked in” to the writing by speaking to others out loud. I am superstitious though!

Hi Mariyaah, very well written post. You’re right that it can be an addiction. Years ago when I stopped using Facebook, I definitely experienced “withdrawal” and what they refer to as FOMO (Fear of Missing Out). Then I slowly realized I was still connected to the people in my life who really mattered, and my interactions with them were even more meaningful. Like, calling them on their birthdays rather than clicking a “happy birthday” button. I still use email, newsletters, and WP to interact. Is it less convenient? Sure, but I have a lot of control and free time back to focus on creating the things I love. Thanks much for reading and commenting!

I believe upon leaving social media you have to put in extra effort to keep in contact with someone. And that extra effort in turn helps to strengthen your relations.
As absurd as it sound in the current era, but well I still write hand-written letters and send them over to my friends. I love the feeling of receiving them and the excitement that never leaves you.

It’s the old gun argument. Guns can be good when used responsibly. Social media is good when used properly. Plus I think you argued more about putting up unfinished artwork before it’s ready than against using social media itself.
But like any person in any field who has serious aims and is in it for the long run, discipline has to play it’s part. I doubt Usain Bolt would be Usain Bolt multi-champion if he kept stopping to talk to followers on the practice track instead of remaining focused where it counts.

Wow–didn’t know that pregnant women advertised the fact like that on the tube. Here in the U.S., we just have the ones in car windows. As a mother, let me just say it’s harder getting around once those kiddos are outside the body than inside! (And I carried twins.) However, I’ve never passed up a seat offered to me, anywhere!

Hello Fellow Bloggers!
My latest post focuses on an incredible ingredient most people throw straight down the sink without a moment’s notice.
What could that be? AQUAFABA!
And what on earth is that? The cloudy water you drain from a tin of chickpeas or beans – it makes the most fantastic egg white replacer.
Not convinced? Take a leap of faith and have a look at the recipe below.
https://whatsbeancooking.com/2018/04/30/blueberry-mini-pavlovas/
As always, I would love to hear your thoughts on the blog!
Best Blogging Wishes and Many Thanks,
What’s Bean Cooking?

Hi everyone,
I’m still pretty new at blogging and wanted to ask some feedback on my last post: https://gone-roaming.com/2018/05/06/wales-coast-path-overview
I found it hard to write a general piece about this without going in to detail if that makes sense.
Any general feedback on the blog is welcome as well 🙂
