By now you would be aware that I’m taking part in the A to Z Blogging Challenge which kicks off on the 1st of April. In fact I’m one of 1416 people who are participating.
This will be the 3rd blog challenge I’m participating in and the one thing I have learned from all of them is that – one must plan ahead. A few months ago when I discovered this challenge, I actually wrote up 5-6 posts (with no theme) but those didn’t get transferred when I switched laptops. So for the past few weeks I’ve been contemplating what sort of theme to focus the A to Z challenge around. Technically I can write about anything I want – or even use photos as long as it corresponds to the alphabet of the day and has about 100 words.
I’ve decided to go with the theme ‘A to Z of Blogging’ where I’ll associate each letter of the alphabet with tips / ideas of how you can enhance your blogging experience.
Here’s a run down of the topics behind my Blogging theme (please feel free to add points on what you would want to read about or perhaps a topic that you feel I could include)
- A – about page / accountability / advertise /
- B – blog blog blog / bookmark your fav blogs /
- C – comments / challenges /cite your sources
- D – Delurk Yourself
- E – express yourself
- F – Follow others / Facebook / Friends
- G – guest bloggers / grow as a blogger
- H – humour
- I – Intense Debate / Interact
- M – make the time / music / Memes / mix it up
- N – new ideas / networked blogs / networking
- O – Opinions Matter / original posts
- P – pimp your blog on social networks
- Q – quotes / quality over quantity
- R – respond to comments / Read & Respond
- S – sexy Saturday / Sunday / Schedule your blog
- T – tweet away / tweet & tumblr
- V – visual content / video content
- W – wordless Wednesday / we heart it
- Y – your blogger voice
I’m having trouble with the below letters – and really hope you guys can give me some suggestions on what I can write about. It’s like my mind is completely blank in trying to put together something for these letters.
- J
- K
- L
- U
- X
- Z
If you are participating in the challenge, have you decided on a theme ? What is it ? Do let me know if you can think of other tips I can throw in based on the alphabets. If you aren’t participating, what are some of the topics you would like to read about based on my current theme ? If you fancy taking part, then feel free to sign up for the challenge here.
