What is the blog and
whose is it?
In this blog
it is a visual display of Gary Peppers experiences and though processes with
the blog being more about her views and less about the work she does working
more like a fashion diary and advise book then away to promote yourself
therefore is a different take on the use of a blog than one that is needed to
be able to act as a portfolio of your product making it interesting to look at
and compare tom see what is different about it to make it successful
What do I like about
it?
This blog has
a different kind of set out then the previous one with all the headings being
placed at the top of the page which I feel looks better than having it down the
side as it makes the headings seem clearer some who as to me it doesn’t make a
list of things but is instead acts like a shop website in the way that it is a
column/title (which is also suggested through the way it is placed at the top
as this is where you would place a title in a document) one of the other things
that I like but didn’t really notice as much on the other blog sites is the way
that this blogger has placed links into her different outlets such as social
media sites and therefore adding some more context to the blog as it
allows you to look at different networks
she has (which there may be one that you associated with more) overall stating
to the viewer that she is active on all platforms and not just focused on her
blog which is always good as it is them not so one directed but broader.
What works well and
that I could use within my own blog?
What I really
love and works well in her blog is her use of photos and the way that she has a
summary sentence under the image then a link where you can read more of the
article so it’s not all out and looks really text heavy. By it not being very
text heavy it makes the online presence feel more refined and less like a
jumble of different words all in all making the blog clear and easily usage.
That in term would encourage people to look at more of her blog posts as they
are able to see all of them before you sit down and read the mass of text so
people are aware of the different documents she writes and therefore they may
become interested and make a point in reading that article later when they have
more time to do so, this results in more views as people will not be put off by
having to read lots as it is all hidden from your first look, giving it a more
positive first impression about the online presence that you can then go into
and explore.
What will I use for
my blog and how have I applied it?
In this one
what I really wanted to do is used the way that she has the read more button to
hide some of her text to make it less text heavy and visually appealing, one of
the main problems that I know that I have is the way that I do write a lot to
explain myself in the clearest way but this can be off-putting. Unfortunately
within my blog (at the moment) I didn’t find a way in which to do this, this
may be just due to the way that I am new to blogging so have yet to figure out
how to do this but it is defiantly something that I will look into within the
future as it works really well to give the blog a really refined elegant
quality that my blog is lacking at the moment. It may be something that is not
available on my blogspot platform therefore in the future I may need to move
over to a different network to make it work in the way that I desire, I just
need to research more into how to make this happen.
