What makes Disney special to you?

Kelly H Russo2023-10-10T22:10:49-04:00August 12, 2010|Disney Blogs|0 Comments

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|0 Comments

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|0 Comments

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 [...]

Day 17 #31DBBB Watch A First Time Reader Use Your Blog

Kelly H Russo2010-08-05T07:20:35-04:00August 5, 2010|Mom Businesses|0 Comments

Question 1: When you asked someone to navigate through your blog for the first time what did they seem drawn to? Well I had someone go thru it and liked the colors and way it looked and the pics that had been posted. Question 2: What useful observations and/or feedback did they offer? Needs a sidebar, needs more posts about Disney and news, and they also thought that the top or header should be different. These are all things I already thought as well and have been working on it my free time.

Day 14 #31DBBB Update a Key Page on Your Blog

Kelly H Russo2010-08-01T14:48:20-04:00August 1, 2010|Mom Businesses|0 Comments

This would be a cool thing to work on if I had more than just the one page. I don't have tabs that lead to other pages and all that fun stuff. During the course of this challenge I have have seen some really great blog set ups and have some ideas on how I would like mine to look. When I go to a blog page now I look at the head and the sidebar right away and see what they have going on. It is crisp and easy to navigate or is it just buttons and ads everywhere? [...]

Day 13 #31DBBB Take a Trip to the Mall

Kelly H Russo2010-08-01T09:24:48-04:00August 1, 2010|Mom Businesses|0 Comments

I have to admit I do not go to the Mall that much. I am just not a shopping kinda gal. I go in and get what I need and leave as quickly as I can. I get the point of the exercise though since I was in retail management for over 10 years. The concept is designed to make you look at how brick and mortar businesses handle there marketing. It can't hurt to take a break from the computer recharge your batteries and get some fresh perspective. So like I said I do not go to the mall [...]
