I dis start a Reading Resolutions thing but then life got in the way, I got busy, and never followed up. <br /><br />I have often thought of doing something similiar, a bi-weekly, or weekly event, but I am not sure I can commit. I guess in the end, I visit as many blogs as I can and enjoy the commenters that I have :)Jenny Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04077659644092707107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4972951595926878159.post-58959099561932590682011-07-17T23:14:02.779-04:002011-07-17T23:14:02.779-04:00Aw, thanks so much for the shout out, Molly! I...Aw, thanks so much for the shout out, Molly! I'm so glad that I've found a loyal group of participants for my quizzes. I'm hoping everyone will come back after my month off! Without the pressure I've actually come up with a few new ones that I think will be fun.<br />Great advice. I love my Tuesday Quiz traffic, but even more surprising is my Sundays with Gage traffic. It's connected to FB, but the blog gets great numbers on its own. I've already started to think about how I'll transition it when Gage turns 1, my self-imposed cut-off. Since so many people read and comment I can't let it go so I just need to find a way to move it in a similar but new direction.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4972951595926878159.post-44403583972720586702011-07-17T21:24:25.989-04:002011-07-17T21:24:25.989-04:00Recurring events are a useful way to build readers...Recurring events are a useful way to build readership, I agree. I considered hosting one or two of my own in the past but they never really took off. I've found more results by joining and participating in events hosted by other bloggers. It gets me to enjoy blogging more and look forward to posting new blog entries. They also feel like a community experience where like-minded individuals discuss similar topics, which is always a plus.<br /><br />Maybe, I'll try and host one around the anniversary of my blog to test out where it takes me, my blog and its readers.<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://madlabonline.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">The Madlab Post</a>Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08965945636486620938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4972951595926878159.post-87928595099768929422011-07-15T22:15:38.932-04:002011-07-15T22:15:38.932-04:00thanks for the shout out--that is one thing I real...thanks for the shout out--that is one thing I really like about your blog, the regular features (and the intelligent way you write)kayerjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08479123027080062607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4972951595926878159.post-5208090877033962002011-07-15T01:01:19.348-04:002011-07-15T01:01:19.348-04:00awesome, awesome idea! i've got to really thin...awesome, awesome idea! i've got to really think on this one. thanks for sharingvanitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06634748075646866112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4972951595926878159.post-21596075829546361052011-07-15T00:36:52.308-04:002011-07-15T00:36:52.308-04:00Solid advice.Solid advice.Claudya Martinezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17034216831504207496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4972951595926878159.post-11496765940953242382011-07-14T21:42:14.348-04:002011-07-14T21:42:14.348-04:00I agree that recurring topics like the ones that y...I agree that recurring topics like the ones that you mentioned are a great draw - they give me something to anticipate when visiting other sites.<br /><br />I've recently tried out something similar on my own blog and have found that I look forward to posting about it each week. The positive feedback that I've received is fun too!Kristihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06740407235304163454noreply@blogger.com
