Top Posts of 2013

By: denise designed

top posts of 2013 feature

I have only been blogging since March but boy has it been fun!  And stressful!  And expensive!  But REWARDING and a fabulous growth experience for me.

Growth in so many ways!

So I am sharing those along with my

Top Posts of 2013

Lets get started…

First area that I grew the most was Personally with the opportunity to participate in the 31 Day Challenge in which I entitled mine: 31 Days to Find My Way!

31 Days to Find My Way

The second area that I had some exceptional growth was in my Post Formatting.  Here are the First and the Last Post of the Year!

And

New Years Eve Party Planning Printables

Formatting included everything from picture size, spacing, type of pictures used, photography, content, titles, etc.

The third area in which I saw growth was with my photography…not just the pictures themselves but the formatting of them.  I still need some improvement, but you can see the quality from the first to the last!

First – my own photo and formatting

And Last – not my last post, but my last one in which I formatted the picture

Some photos were my own, some were not, but regardless of who’s, the formatting most certainly improved.

And I think, the last area in which I saw growth and am the most proud is in my Post Content.

So, while I don’t have as many good ones to share as it took me awhile to get to a point in which was producing better content, here are the top five of the most popular posts, that to me, would equate to good content.

Well that’s not it!  There have been so many changes over the course of my short time blogging to include design changes, more niche topics, regular post calendar and so much more.

But there is even much more to come!  I have a lot planned for 2014.  So I hope that you stick around to see the Best of 2014 a year from now. Those will be filled with even better posts and content.

I wish you a Happy New Year and all the best!!!

happy new year
