(yeah yeah, I know there’s no B201 Day 3 post yet, but that project is harder and tech-heavy and takes longer, so I’ll update that when I get there).
For now, a look into B201 (the blog improvement project) assignment of the day.
B201 – Day 4 – Give ‘Em What They Want
Conduct a short and simple stats analysis that will help you create an editorial calendar for the next 30 days.
- Takeaway #1: my most popular post is Lessons From the Organizing Pro, which featured photos of my home, “before and after” documentation, and a strong theme (household reorganization) that seemed to resonate with both male and female readers. A distant second was Top 8 Lessons Learned in a Year of Wedding Planning, which makes me think that lists are also a popular click for my readers.
- Takeaway #2: it looks like most of my readers are checking in on Wednesdays (not coincidentally, also #AskAmanda days over on my Facebook page) and Thursdays, and not as many on Mondays or weekends. This means I might want to think about running my strongest content on the more readable (and hopefully, “shareable”) days.
Because I am committing to blogging 6 days per week, I will continue to provide content every day (and keep up with my Weekend Roundup link posts to make sure you guys haven’t forgotten about me when the weekend rolls around).
That said, I plan to add more list-style posts, personal (vs. stock) photos, and practical, life-hack type thematics – so get ready, readers! TFB is coming for YOU!
What keywords, themes, or ideas get YOU to actually click over to a blog?
