With the contest taking up the majority of my time I decide to extend the Blog Engage Weekly Word Challenge. If your not familiar with the challenge I’ll bring you up to date now.

How does it work?

Near the end of every week (Friday the latest) I will post an article with a bunch of words for our members to vote on. Come the following Monday I will share the most popular and voted on word announcing it as the weekly word challenge word. Our members including myself will take that word and write a blog article about or on that specific subject.

We will have the entire week to write our article on or about this specific word. Come the following Friday I will compile all the blogger articles that were written and share them with our community members here on the guest blog and link to all your articles. This post will also contain the next weekly word challenge options for our members to once again vote on.

How to participate?

Participating is the easy part. Simply write an article on your blog about or regarding the weekly word challenge. Come back to the original weekly word challenge post and reply with your articles url in your comment stating “this is my submission for the weekly word challenge.

At the end of the week, normally Friday I will compile a list of all the members articles that participated and post them in a “wrap up post” sharing them with all our members, tweeting and engaging the articles. This week end wrap up post will also have the new words for the next weeks weekly word challenge.

1. Vote for the word on Fridays
2. Write your article during the next work week
3. Comment and include your weekly word challenge article
4. Visit the articles on the Friday wrap up
5. vote for next weeks word on Friday’s wrap up article

I understand that are writing challenge is difficult and for this reason I have decided to extend this weeks challenge. Last weeks word challenge made us take a better look at our blogs and challenged us to come up with a list of 10 things we could perhaps do better then we’re currently doing.

Why participate?

Because all articles submitted to the challenge will be promoted on by me here on our word challenge linking directly to your word challenge post.

This also includes retweets from myself with over 1900 followers. Also other members will be joining us in conversations on your blog. This is a great way to find new readers and get comments.

Things to consider

• Writing Style

• Article Length

• Blog Design

• Marketing

• Promotion

• Quality of Content

• Article Research

• Commenting

• Relationship Building

• More…

We all know blogging isn’t easy so doing this writing challenge will help you determine where you are struggling with your current blog and perhaps even specific area’s you can start making improvements in.

The idea is basic. Simply write an article in order of importance the top 10 things you should improve on or change when it comes to blogging.

The article should be submitted in list format, more specifically a paragraph list format. So we want what you will be changing and more importantly why you find you should improve in that specific area.

Paragraph List Post – This type of list post requires a little more content but still consists of a a list. For every list you will have a small but brief paragraph explaining what the listed number is about.

Example:

Marketing – I don’t spend anytime marketing and I should try to improve this. I will be joining some webmaster forums and social networks in hopes to start marketing my blog more.

If you’re reading this feel free to participate. Deadline for article submission is Friday morning. Simply leave a reply with your article submission and I will add it to Friday’s weekly writing challenge wrap up.

Another week passes us and we find our selves with yet another weekly word challenge wrap up.

This week is a little different because we will be making some changes that will hopefully encourage our member to participate a little bit more.

Blog Engage weekly word challenge will be changing from a word to a post type. This suggestion was from Alison and to be honest I sort of loved the idea.

Post types will include a list post and a roundup post. We will allow our member to submit either or seeing this writing challenge is pretty new.

In order to fully understand what these types are I will present the description of each for you all to read.

List Posts – List posts are by far the most popular type of blogging styles. When I search for an example all I could really find was Darren Rowse’s articles but to be honest he explains it very well. From reading the article it seems very basic. A list post is a post that requires you to have some sort of list within the article.

Types of List Posts

Basic List post – This list post will be very basic. The brief introductory to the post, a list and a conclusion. Apparently this is pretty popular because Internet users don’t’ like reading word for word anyways.

Paragraph List Post – This type of list post requires a little more content but still consists of a a list. For every list you will have a small but brief paragraph explaining what the listed number is about.

List within a post – This one is actually very easy to understand. This list type will be a normal article but inside that articel will be a list.

Round up posts – This type of post will bring together all of ones activities or actions over a specific periods of time onto one article. This can be an article regarding what you accomplished throughout the week on your blog, in life or in your career. If anyone has some better example of this I could use them. Not much was found on Google.

This week we will be doing the list post. You have until Next Friday to submit your article here on our community blog by leaving a comment with the url to your article submission.

Now without waiting anymore I present to you last weeks weekly word challenge participating articles.
