Reading Roundup: What’s New in Blogging Lately?

Posted By Stacey Roberts 12th of November 2016 Pro Blogging News 0 Comments

Reading Roundup: What's new in blogging this week / ProBlogger.net

Well now, wasn’t that an eventful week? I don’t know about you but it’s been hard to get my head around work and usual processes when everything has been shaken up so much. Social media was in its element (both good and bad, really) with election news, but regardless of what’s going on at the top, we have to keep on working and making our projects the best they can be.

I hope these posts will help you do just that this week!

33 Writing Tweaks That Will Turn You into a Copywriting Master | Quicksprout

I find these types of posts beneficial for those who started a blog as a hobby and soon realise they want to level up. Or perhaps people who want to start blogging to make money but are insecure about their writing.

How to Customise MailChimp Sign Up Forms (so people feel really, really welcome) | Dotti Media

Couldn’t agree with this more! It takes a bit of time to set up, yes – but don’t all good things that help you stand out from the crowd? Especially now with everyone’s inboxes filled to overflowing.

FAQ: All about the Google mobile-first index | Search Engine Land

Google will now create and rank its search listings based on the mobile version of content, even for listings that are shown to desktop users. I know, I’m confused too. This article spells it all out.

  7. Hi Stacy,

    I would say that you have done a wonderful job in consolidating the trendy matters of the Blogosphere. I have read the blog posts of Marketing land, Search engine land, Quicksprout, and Entrepreneur.

    I’ll visit the other blogs that you have listed here and will keep myself updated with the latest matters. I would love to read about the content marketing and thus I’m immediately landing on the meetedgar.com to check and leave my insights.

    Thanks for the valuable share, keep your good work.

  9. Hello, Stacey!

    Moz’s one is fab!

    Really, there’s no meaning of writing if your audience is not engaging or even reading.

    Perhaps you don’t have understood the requirement of your audience. Or you’re not good at the topic you chose for your writing that you’re not expressing that good to have readers to click.

    But, overall there are some lacks in our writing. The writing is an art and not build up in span of days but takes time.

    And if you have the topic you love to write, this is the best way to go to polish up yourself. The natural polish.

    Neil did an excellent job in his blog post from QuickSprout.

    So, I gotta hop on some more.

    Thanks for bringing up the list with us! :)
