What makes Disney special to you?

Kelly H Russo2023-10-10T22:10:49-04:00August 12, 2010|Disney Blogs|

What makes Disney World special to you? I remember my first visit to Disney World, we were staying at the Contemporary Resort. My grandmother and I went and I was hooked! I took some special Art classes and we got a behind the scenes tour as well it just stayed with me after all these years. I have always been close with my grandmother and I am very grateful for so many of the things that she has done for me in my life but this trip always stood out for me. When I started taking my own [...]

Day 25 #31DBBB Ask a Question

Kelly H Russo2010-08-12T08:32:18-04:00August 12, 2010|Mom Businesses|

Have you written a question post in the past? How was the response? I have never written a question post in the past. Have you seen a question post on another blog that got you involved or drew your interest? What about the post got you interested? Yes but I did not end up posting because it was something I really did not agree with and I didn't want to be mean. I think I will post a question today on the blog and see if I get any responses.

Day 24 #31DBBB: How to Use a Magazine to Improve Your Blog

Kelly H Russo2010-08-12T08:28:30-04:00August 12, 2010|Mom Businesses|

Did this exercise inspire you to try anything new with your own blog? I went thru a travel agent magazine and looked at articles, they layout, colors used in ads, pics, frames and articles. I love reading this magazine and I get some really good ideas and tips about cruising and selling cruises from it. It doesn't focus on just Disney but they do have info about Disney from time to time. I think that best practices about selling, organizing and other things can translate to what I do so I just take it and make it What magazine did [...]

Kelly H Russo2010-08-10T07:08:08-04:00August 10, 2010|Mom Businesses|

By reviewing my old posts, this exercise helped me figure out where I need to improve as a blogger. When reviewing your old posts, did a majority of the posts fall into any of the 7 categories above? I don't have that many old posts to go over but I did print out this section from the book because I do feel like it will be helpful to me in the future. The 7 Categories are: Crafting your post title Opening lines Call to Action Add Depth Quality control Polishing Posts Conversation Which post did you choose to rewrite and [...]

Day 20 #31DBBB Leave Comments on Other Blogs

Kelly H Russo2010-08-10T06:58:23-04:00August 10, 2010|Mom Businesses|

Do you normally spend at least 15 minutes a day commenting on other blogs? Why or why not? I do leave comments sometimes but not as much as I probably should. What are some reasons you DON'T comment on an entry you otherwise would have? (For example, a registration process deters me from commenting.) Sometimes blogs want to much info and I don't want to fill it all out. Sometimes I do not have time and sometimes I will enter everything and then that Captcha thing messes it all up and then I give up.
