I’ve just added another free guide to my growing blog consulting guides area (22 and counting).

It’s called How to Improve Your Blog Community. It includes my best advice from more than three years as a blog network editor, social media event organizer and new media consultant.

Specifically, it covers the following:

• What a blog community is
• Why your blog community matters
• 4 common aspects of all communities
• 10 ways to measure blog community growth
• 5 steps to building your blog community
• How to get “unstuck” in your community-building efforts
• 6 excellent resources for further reading

Grab the printer-friendly PDF version (848 KB).

Let me know what you think! More guides coming soon …

I’ve published a free step-by-step guide on how to become a better blog commentator, based on my three-plus years of making an average of approximately 20-30 blog comments per week around the Web.

My goal is to provide you with nothing but the finest resources on blog improvement anywhere on earth. Please check out my Blog Improvement Checklist (complete) and Blog Improvement Resource List (work in progress) for examples of my work.

I’m actually just fixing up the last part of the commenting guide right now so don’t be surprised if you see a dangling participle or misshapen paragraph. I hope you don’t mind.

You can read it online or download a printer-friendly PDF version.

Thank you to everyone who helped me write it.

Please let me know if you find it useful and how I could make it better!
