It’s that time again! Not a full blown bloggiesta, but a mini version! And we all like things mini don’t we? Well, you should!
I’ve already been super busy with my blog the past few weeks. I’ve been moving to a new domain, fixing images (ongoing), sorting through categories to move it partially, adding a warning to some ;-), turning a page into a category (failing on looks), fixing the flaws in my theme. And adding one. I accidentallied a space (you know, what you get when pushing your spacebar) in front of some code (the opening Mini Bloggiesta Mini Challenges, you can find it here.
In progress
Finished! o/
Goals:
Behind the scenes
Sort through those 735 posts and assign correct categories and check the links/images – won’t finish, but if I do a load it’ll be alright!Somehow I did it all 😮Fix header missing a space- Favicon in root

Mini-challenges
Commenting and Networking from Tanya at Mom’s Small Victories (@momsvictories)- Vlogging Challenge from Celine from Nyx Book Reviews (@CelineNyx) I recorded but didn’t finish the editing before the end of bloggiesta 🙁 I had a wonderful morning staring at wildlife though?
Old mini-challenges I might do:
Organization and scheduling posts andThrough a visitor’s eyefrom Amanda at On a Book Bender (@BookBender)Become a Book Depository Affiliate, if the site will cooperate now, from Donna at Bookie Wookie (@BookieWookie)- Elevator pitches from Deborah at Books, Movies, and Chinese food (Oxford comma, thou got love!) (@beatccr)
I’d say that’s plenty! 😆
What are you planning to do? Checked out the old challenges or sticking to the new ones? Or none at all?
Thanks for linking to my commenting mini-challenge in your blog. You have quite a list of things to do. You are brave to attempt a vlog, I am too shy to tackle that. I did the Through a Visitor’s Eyes and signing up for affiliates during the last Bloggiesta and they were very helpful. I need to work on my SEO for images so I will be sure to stop by your challenge and get that straightened out! Hope you have a great weekend!
No problem! I think it’s easier for my readers who are curious about the challenge/want to do it too. One less hurdle to take, so to speak.
I think I’ve done the ‘Through the visitor’s eye’ too, but I thought it was a good thing to do a check-up, there were some great pointers there! Just jog my memory. I’ve attempted to become a book depository affiliate a couple of times, but the website didn’t seem to properly load 🙁
I’ve been an active vlogger before, but I stopped at some point because my being ill got in the way, now I deleted everything and wanted to start over. Scripted and properly edited (am lucky enough to have a filmmaker as a friend 😉 ). I see this as a good oppurtunity to start again!
Good luck with your SEO (and the rest of your list!) and let me know if anything’s unclear or I can lend a hand 😀 You have a splendid weekend too! ^__^
Categories/tags/labels are so not fun! Good luck!
I knooow! But if you get them right once, you’ll be set and a very very happy blogger! Thanks a lot ^_^ You too!
