I have a blog that I used to update regularly but now it's sadly neglected. I would love to get it going again!!!

Are you a blogger? And if - how do you keep it going???

I would love to get some tips and tricks! <3
 
Ugh I used to blog and I really miss it! So many bloggers I used to follow are now doing other social media like IG and Youtube. I loved having theme days, like Travel Tuesday or Five Good Things Friday. I don't know why, but having a set schedule like that was very motivating to me. I would sometimes do Five Pages on a theme, like 5 older Halloween layouts. When we traveled I could get weeks' worth of blog material from a trip. I did blog recipes and books I was reading too, to give myself a break from just scrappy stuff. There used to be things like blog hops and tags that were fun but I'm not sure anyone does those anymore. I guess it depends on what you use your blog for too, if it's to advertise as a CT or if you use it for family memories and such.
 
I just post layouts on my blog, no text other than credits. I guess putting a bit of story with the layout would make for better content. I really just do it for myself as a time capsule. I've had the same blog since 2008.
 
Good question. What is the purpose of your blog? Do you treat it like a personal diary? Do you have it for friends and family to keep updated on what's happening in your world? Are you trying to reach out and meet other creatives? I think if you can identify the why, the how will be easier to determine! :)
