As the Teacher Challenge comes to a close, the final activity involves building blog readership. Following is a brainstorm/journal considering what I need to do in order to build my own readership.
- Be Brave. For some reason I am quite self-conscious about announcing my blogs on Twitter/Facebook. This is the most important step for me to gain some readers!
- Be a More Active Reader. I have a small handful of blogs that I follow seriously. I should do more commenting on these blogs and use some of their posts as starting points for my own post ideas.
- Read More Blogs. Upping the number of blogs I follow would probably make me a more rounded blogger, which in turn would help me to come up with ideas for my own posts.
- Add More Pictures/Media. Enough Said.
- Network, Network, Network!
