Welcome back for another monthly update. In October I was ill again and so progress was slow. I am still on track with all my challenges though and hoping to make up for it this month. 


The Blog Audit Challenge 2021



The October Challenges were focused on follow options. This is something I still  need to work on more. 

I've been trying to organise my newsletter better so that it offers another way to follow the latest content posted to the blog. I'm still trying to work out the best way to do this though. 

I'll definitely be giving more thought into this in the coming months.


The Social Media Audit Challenge


For this challenge I'm concentrating on social media. The October focus was on Pinterest. 

I find that recently Pinterest isn't getting the stats it used too. That said, it's still a great way to gain traffic long term. 

I'm now creating multiple pins for my posts and scheduling some in advance. I'm still very much doing trail and error to find the best times to pin though.

I also want to experiment more with hashtags on Pinterest to see which ones get the best results.





The Clock Reading Challenge

I created the Clock Reading Challenge as I thought it would be fun and not too difficult to complete.

    1. Always! I like to keep myself busy though, and love a challenge. Thanks. I think I might actually manage to complete the challenges this year.

  3. Wow! You are so organised. Loved the clock reading challenge. Sadly, I am a mood reader so not really good with long term challenges
