January Blog Jumpstart Challenge -
  2018 Design For YOU And YOUR Future 

 ***  FULL DETAILS NOW POSTED  January 5th, 2018  *** 

 

Your participation in the 2018 January Blog Jumpstart is for YOU and YOUR FUTURE. This is not a "contest" against other people - it is a Challenge from you to yourself. Just imagine it as a plain old set of "school" lessons or "assignments" designed to enhance YOUR Blogging skills.

 

The only competition you face is YOURSELF. Topics vary widely - whatever you choose to write is fine - the results are the benefits to you.

 

SUGGESTION???? Push yourself to learn something new. The points are only there as incentive. LEARNING is the goal.

 

Maybe you want to get back into the Blogging rhythm? Maybe you want to experiment with a new format? Maybe you want to learn how to make your post look better?

 

Maybe you want to learn how to make your visual elements in your posts more exciting. Maybe you want to learn how to use some new Visual Formats.

 

Or - maybe you have never tried the Templates provided by AR:

WANT TO TRY A TEMPLATES? Listings Frequently Asked Questions
Neighborhoods and Subdivisions     Market Report Local Events and Local Businesses
Condo Complexes Homes for Sale with a .... Real Estate News

 

Each year the Challenge requires one post about an aspect of the Weltanschauung that most resonates with the writer and one post about the aspect of the Community Guidelines that most resonates. 

Over the past six years, many long-time members expressed how long it had been since they reviewed these basics or that they never knew about them!

New members often stated they had never known these documents existed.

 

AR Bloggers wrote amazing posts over the years about both the  Community Guidelines and the Weltanschauung. These premises are the Foundation of ActiveRain - the insightful framework which has allowed the community to grow and thrive.

 

One place to find past posts on the topics above is by using the Search Bar - first writing Community Guidelines and next writing Weltanschauung.

 

Yes, Double-Dipping with the other two January 2018 events is allowed. Be sure to visit those options - Advice for New Agents   &  2018 Best Year Yet. and follow their specific requirements for reporting participation. 

 

Have unanswered questions about ActiveRain in general?    

Tammy Emineth  -  an SEO expert on ActiveRain - shares many answers in her Post - a long list of ActiveRain FAQ's.

I am hoping to get 100 AR Members to cross the finish line this year. Between 1/4 and 1/3 of those who start don't finish. Takes a bit of reminding that Challenge is going to start soon --- L.
