I really enjoyed and learned a lot with the SITS 31dbbb challenge.

The book by ProBlogger 31 Days to Build a Better Blog was full of great challenges for each day and it really has helped me focus and improve my blog.  (I hope so anyway.) If you are looking for a way to improve your blogging, this book is it!

The only thing I regret is that I didn’t change to self hosting a year ago. I worry that I have lost a few readers from the switch.  My stats are not matching what they were before the switch.  But I need to just focus on writing quality, useful posts and those who will benefit from them will find them.

I also just downloaded another cool tool.  The Copywriting Scorecard for Bloggers.  I will let you know what I think about it after I use it for awhile.

Here is another challenge by Darren from ProBlogger Take the 7 Link Challenge.

Thanks to Scientific Nature of the Whammy for doing a wrap up and telling me about this challenge too!
