M.J. is one of the hosts of the Blogging from A to Z April Challenge and is conducting the first of several surveys about the challenge. Go here and read his post:
M. J. Joachim’s Writing Tips: Totally Random A - Z Challenge Survey #1: by M. J. Joachim Because I think you guys are awesome, and I want to know what you think about when it comes to all things A - Z. Please sha...
Now for my responses:
1. What is the first shape that comes to mind when you think of the AtoZ Challenge? A circle. Because it is a circle of bloggers sharing posts, ideas, visits, comments, etc.
2. What is the first color(s) you think of, when you think of the AtoZ Challenge? This color. Because it was the color in our .jpeg for this year, 2014.
3. Why do you like visiting the A to Z Blog? I like to visit the blog to see what new thing the co-hosts might be up to and to use the linky lists to visit other blogs.
4. If you could change anything about the A to Z Challenge, what would it be? Since it has grown so large, I'd like to see the linky list divided by blog type. And for blog type to be manditory. Otherwise, change nothing.
5. What is your favorite thing about the A to Z Challenge? In all honesty, more traffic to my blog. Which means more folks seeing my posts and more comments left. And more people following Caneyhead on one platform or another.
Bonus Question: What is your favorite letter of the alphabet and why? B of course! For Barbara.
If you A to Z'd this year, join in and take the survey yourself!
Thanks for answering the survey in such detail. It will help MJ develop ideas for subsequent posts.
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting Caneyhead!
DeleteI've done the blog challenge for three years now. I think the best way to get traffic to your blog is to try to visit as many bloggers on the list. If you comment on their blogs, they'll most likely come back and comment on yours.
ReplyDeleteExactly! Visiting others, commenting, leaving links, sharing links and posts are all excellent ways of increasing one's own traffic and one's own enjoyment.
DeleteLOL, loved your last one Barbara! :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Lynne!
DeleteYou last answer made me laugh! :) I had similar answers to yours.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting Caneyhead, Christine! Glad I could give you a laugh! On my way to see your answers.
DeleteHadn't seen anything about the survey, but have been continuing with the road trip, and continued blogging a-z in May. The one thing I would change with a-z is anyone not leaving a link that's one click be nixed from the group. So much time is lost going to people's google+profile pages searching and searching for their actual blog, some of the same going to folks dashboard area's on blogspot. Making people use the link to their actual blog. Thank you for having the name and url option...my favorite way to get the job done!!
ReplyDeleteOne click links are nice! I aim to make it easy as possible for anyone to comment.
Delete"Life & Faith in Caneyhead" has been included in my Arlynda Lea's Sites to See #2. I hope this helps to call attention to your efforts.
