Today’s post is more of a pep talk to get you busy on some things that your blog may need doing. I do this myself for my blogs on a regular basis, it keeps me on my toes and helps me to continue improving every day.

Here is what I want you to do, load up your blog and sit down in your chair. Grab a drink and just stare at your blog the way visitors see it when they first enter, I want you to look at it. Every little detail should be looked at, spend at least 15 minutes just looking at your blog in amazement of everything from design to the content seen at the top of the page.

Are you done? OK, now that you have looked at every facet of your blog I am sure a few things come to your mind that you either want or need to change. Perhaps nothing comes to your mind, if that’s so I will list a couple of things down below that I see on one of my blogs.

  • Blog Design Is Kind Of TOO Blue.
  • My Blog Has Way To Much Going On Aside From Content Which Is The Most Important Thing.
  • The blog looks to much like another blog I visit.
  • The advert slots are everywhere and look unprofessional.

The Blog content is great but basically the design needs serious work but like some of you I got so busy busting out kick butt content that the design suffered therefore leaving me with a blog that didn’t attract anyone and it limited my ability to get subscribers as well as sell adverts.

I believe if you take the time to look at your blog from another persons perspective you will see the flaws, it takes a good 15 minutes to see the flaws and never be afraid to redo this exercise as soon as you fix some of your first mistakes. Doing this will eliminate problems and help you get where you want to go quicker.
