I've been thinking about some things I've done that helped improve my site over the course of the last year as I've tweaked it and built it up. Here are 5 things I wish I'd done right away.

  • Email Notifications for New Comments
  • Do not require users to register to post comments.
  • All-In-One SEO Plugin
  • Link, Link, Link
  • Monthly Contests

I think these five things helped boost my site the most.


Still catching up

There's a lot left to do for my primary blog, but here's my list of 2007's updates:

1. New logo so people will remember it
2. 8 bloggers post weekly now for a steady flow of content
3. Removed Monthly archives and extra clutter from sidebar
4. Added Recent Comments on the sidebar to promote conversation
