First foray into Community Consulting 2.0

Hi all â€" Skellie here. Our first foray into Community Consulting 2.0 has wrapped up. With 65+ insights shared, it’s time to summarize the main recommendations given into an actionable plan for Kathleen’s blog, Fashion-Incubator. If you’re new to the project, you might want to read the Community Consulting launch post and take a look at the post where Fashion-Incubator was opened for critique. Every inch of the blog was pored over and evaluated, which has helped build a comprehensive body of tips and lessons we can all learn from.

This week I’ve had emails from quite a few new readers asking questions that I probably take for granted that everyone knows. So if you’re new - let me share a few tips to help you get the most out of this blog. If you’re an old timer - you might like to skip this post: What is ProBlogger? This is a blog dedicated to teaching bloggers (and those wanting to start one) how to start and improve their blogs. The blog covers a lot of the basics of blogging - but has a particular interest in helping bloggers to make money blogging.

I did an interesting calculation today. I worked out that I’d written 107 posts at my own blog, plus 36 posts at other blogs, for a total of 143 (mostly) long posts, produced across four months. The maths proves that I’m a prolific blogger. Certainly not the most prolific, but I suspect that I write more than most. That doesn’t necessarily mean I spend a lot of time writing posts. In truth, I’ve always been surprised by the amount of time I spend vs. the number of posts I produce.
