31 Days to Building a Better Blog – Day 20
With the arrival of day 20 I feel as though we’re in the home stretch of the 31 Days Project here at ProBlogger. A couple of people have asked me in the last day or two whether every link I put up in these daily summary posts are links that I endorse the content of. I’ll answer that question below under today’s reader posts. Here they are:
- John has written Blogging Blues
- Tom wrote a post on Barter at Pro-blogger barter
- LcF let us know about Journey to Become Pro Blogger
- Yzabel wrote Why Keeping Several Blogs Can be a Good Idea
- Kurt let us know about The Tools of the Trade
- Miha submitted Let online tools help you begin
- Edrei let us know about a couple of older posts – To All WordPress Users: Back up Matters and Responding to Blog Criticism
- Dan wrote Building Traffic on this Blog
- Kitty has written What to Write About in Blogs
- Raj submitted Turn Your Life Experiences into Blogs and Blogging the Write Way
- Chris let us know about his new blog – Mice Life – a blog keeping a record of his pro blogging efforts
My answer to the question of whether I agree with or endorse each post I’ve linked to in this project is to say that I want to create a space with this project for people to share their experience. I hope that in doing so we’ll find some helpful blog tips and will meet some talented new ProBloggers (or aspiring ones). This has already happened as many of the tips submitted so far are brilliant.
In the midst of the great links that I’ve put up have been other posts which I don’t resonate as much with. Some have confused me, a couple have written tips that I’m not so sure I agree with. However I decided at the start that I wouldn’t edit out submitted tips unless they were offensive or defamatory etc. Rather this is about creating a space for bloggers to share what they know (or think that they know). Hopefully through the discussion and reading we’ll all discern the wheat from the chaff and come out better bloggers.
I hope that answered the question.

I noticed that “MiceLife” was posting his complete AdSense stats. While I understand that it is now okay to talk about your earnings, I think that publicizing CTR is still against the TaC. I may be wrong?
