Thank you Leigh! Hope you found them useful! Thanks for sharing!
Joe Bartell says
Thanks for the tips, I have found that the auto scheduler through Pinterest is a Big tool to use, it has really helped me. Hope to see you again in #WAYWOW.
Linda @ Mixed Kreations says
I didn’t know about an auto scheduler, guess that shows how much I know about Pinterest. I will have to look into that, Thank you!
Tasha says
Is there a certain wiget or plug in that can used to help with scheduling?
Tasha says
*widget
Linda @ Mixed Kreations says
Hi Tasha! I have been using Buffer, I can schedule post for FB, Twitter, Google, LinkedIn, and Pinterest all at one time for $10 a month. I can set times to post, so I’m liking it so far. Pinterest has Boardbooster, but I didn’t quite get the hang of it and it took a little longer then I liked. I may try it again sometime though.
Jessica says
These are great tips, although finding the time to fix everything can be tricky.
Linda @ Mixed Kreations says
You are so right Jessica, I am always rushing around trying to get everything done for the day. It’s never ending!
sue says
Some great tips here Linda! I still have to get my act together with Pinterest & G+ as I have been concentrating on FB and Twitter. G+ just seems a mystery to me so I will have to sit down and really get a handle on it. I saw your helpful post through #WayWow linkup. Have a great day!
Linda @ Mixed Kreations says
Thank you Sue! I know what you mean, I’m still trying to get it all together by juggling it all between my day job.
Lindsay says
Some great tips you have and I found myself nodding in agreement at many or most of your suggestions. Link parties are my favorite and I try to read about 30-40 blogs on my daily to and from commute into work on the train.
Linda @ Mixed Kreations says
Thanks Lindsay! I don’t read that many, but I do read as many as I can when I get the chance during down time at work. Thanks for stopping by!
Katy @ Midlife Rambler says
That’s a great idea to share relevant facebook posts from other bloggers on your facebook page. It helps them and helps your page by growing the content. I’m going to start doing just that.
Linda @ Mixed Kreations says
Thanks Katy! I think that I’m better at sharing others post then my own post. I just get so busy and forget.
chellie says
Nice to have a simplified check list! Thank you so much. I find the whole social media thing tricky, just trying to fit it all in and following all the ‘tricks of the trade’. this is helpful
Linda @ Mixed Kreations says
I glad that you found the post helpful. I’m still trying to learn it all myself. Social Media is tricky and it is always changing.
Carrie Groneman says
I love this post and all your ideas, thank you so much for putting it all together in a concise and easy to read list – just what a blogger wants and needs!
Linda @ Mixed Kreations says
Thank you Carrie, I’m glad that you found it helpful. It’s just tough sometimes getting it all accomplished in one day, let alone do it every day. A bloggers work is never done Lol.
Janelle (JEM) says
Thanks For the 20 tips. I do most of them so I feel I must be doing something right. YAY!
JEM

Hi Janelle! That’s great! I try to follow the list daily but don’t always accomplish everything. Thanks for stopping by!

I have joined triberr and people share my posts as they are published. I get more Twitter followers this way I believe
Linda @ Mixed Kreations says
That’s great! I will have to check into that. Thanks Gail!
Mary-the boondocks blog says
These are all really great tips Linda. Some of them I’ve been doing and others not so much. It’s time for me to get a bit more organized. Thanks for all these great tips.
Linda @ Mixed Kreations says
Thanks Mary! I need to get more organized myself. Could use a few more hours too (-; I seem to run out of time before I can get everything accomplished for that day.
Debbie says
Hi Linda, great tips for getting a blog out there and read.I’m yet to get the hang of Facebook. Sounds daft but this year my goal was Twitter, next year will be my Facebook year, so your tips have come in handy.
Blog hops are wonderful places to get blog exposure, just so long as you play the game and don’t link up and run.
xx
Linda @ Mixed Kreations says
Thanks Debbie! I’m not to good on twitter, I do share but other then that I don’t pay a lot of attention to it. I’ve been concentrating on FB and link parties the most, and I have be seeing more traffic. I haven’t tried a Blog hop yet, the linky parties keep me busy.
Debbie says
Excellent tips. I don’t ever do much with Google plus beyond sharing my post there (and sometimes I forget to do that). I’ll check out Google communities. #sitssharefest
Linda @ Mixed Kreations says
Thanks Debbie! That’s how I am with Twitter.
Gina says
This post is so great! I love how straight and to the point it is. I’ve been looking for ways to get my blog noticed since I started back in August. I do some of these tips already, but I’ll definitely try some more. I really agree that leaving thoughtful comments on other blogs and joining linky parties are great ways to grow your blog. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you Gina! I have noticed more traffic since I started doing linky parties and being consist on social media, and leaving thoughtful comments I think is a big must. Thanks for stopping by!

Hi Linda, I thought these tips were so helpful, especially for a newbie like me!!! It’s so important to go and join link parties and leave meaningful comments, I agree absolutely and it really helped my blog for sure! Also, at the beginning I didn’t have FB, so that was a great improve as well! Thanks for the awesome tips Linda! Sharing on FB!!!
Linda @ Mixed Kreations says
Thank you Katrin! I just wish I had know some of this when I first started blogging. The link parties and Facebook groups has really helped a lot. Thanks for stopping by!

Nikki Frank-Hamilton says
Linda, I am pinning this as a reminder to myself. There are so many things to do, I need to get into a better routine. If we do these things regularly then it becomes part of the process and I find it so much quicker and easier to accomplish. In fact, this would be a great list for any or all of us to print off and use! Thanks!
Linda @ Mixed Kreations says
Thanks Nikki! I try to stay on my routine but there is just so much to do. I need to find a better routine or more hours in the day. And we all know that’s not happening LOL.
Debrashoppeno5 says
Excellent advise. I need to make myself a schedule to keep up with some of this. Thank you.
Linda @ Mixed Kreations says
I know what you mean, so much to do when it comes to blogging. That is if you want your blog to grow.
Michelle says
Great times – thank you for sharing. I’m getting more organized with getting my blog out there so very timely.
Linda @ Mixed Kreations says
That’s great Michelle! Got any tips I would love to here them. Some days I manage to get everything done other days I get behind, then play catch up next day. Which puts me behind.
Robyn says
There’s a lot to do isn’t there?! I don’t use Google+ and am not very good at Pinterest so those are some things for me to work on. Good little task list for bloggers hoping to reach out to others 🙂 #BlogFair
Linda @ Mixed Kreations says
Hi Robyn! Yes there is a ton of stuff to do for bloggers, I just didn’t realize how much when I first started blogging. It is hard to keep up sometimes. But I have been seeing results with all the hard work. Thanks for stopping by!
Sharon Rowe says
What an awesome post! Thanks for sharing on Monday Madness link party last week! I am going to use your tips for G+ since it has had an image update I might give it another major push! I loved this post so much it is a feature next week! Hope to see you there! 🙂
Linda @ Mixed Kreations says
Hi Sharon! I’m glad that you found my post helpful. I joined the link party earlier, and thank you so much for featuring my post. (-;
Kathleen says
A very nice list Linda, I will be pinning this to the Blogger’s Pit Stop Board. Thanks for being an awesome co-host to The Pinterest Game. I am trialing Tailwind to schedule for Pinterest. I have scheduled your pin to my top boards, so I hope you get some traffic from that
I need to try and follow your list daily.
Linda @ Mixed Kreations says
Thank you Kathleen! I am so delighted for the opportunity of co-host. I’m been using Buffer, I can pin, and post to FB, Twitter, and Google all at once. That seems to be working for me for now.
