Looking at your Blog I can say that this is amoung the few Best blogs I have seen.... but yes few things which I would like to mention are :-

  • As your blog is also about poems and writings, I can easily relate to it. your hold over the words are appreciable. Good work
  • As far as writings are concerned, you write great poems.
  • It would be better if you could only show excerpts on the home page rather than full blog post.

Rest all the best for your Blog.

Hi,

the depth is poem is nice, I personaly like to read short and crispy lines of poems, which I found in your posts, however I generaly write in Hindi.

one thing which you can try ..write your poems on the pictures  i.e. make picture a background and in bold text write your poems on it.

Hello,

Just visited your blog. It looks OKAY in black but since it is a literary blog, not photographic, so lets remove the look factor(still, it looked fine :) ). So, this is what I feel about your blog:

1-  You write in fantastic manner. Reader tends to continue and continue until the article is over. 2- I found a few words difficult to understand. Kindly try to use simpler words(not a big problem though, because almost all articles are simple in language, except one or two). I hope you know it that a reader expects to read something which he can swallow and digest at once rather than swallowing and getting hiccups. :)

3- Consider to align the text.

4- I can see only 2 posts in home page. Though you might be having other interesting articles previously posted. But normal readers wont care to click "see older post". Try to show more posts on home page.

5- Here is my advice I would really like you to follow. SHOW EXCERPTS! That will not let readers distract from your blog and will increase the post views as well.

6- I think you havn't tried to optimize articles as per SEO. An article with good SEO gets better organic traffic. :)

7- You write awesome, keep writing like this. Would love to read more from your pen..sorry, I mean keyboard.. ;)

Overall, you are doing pretty well. Let me know if you want any detailed info about the points I mentioned above.KINDLY REVIEW MY BLOG TOO.

All the best. (y)

Thanks a lot Abhishek for such a detailed review. I'm a new blogger and I think I'm learning everyday and from almost every blogger. I will try to consider the things you mentioned but I think the 'theme' I've chosen for my blog ( wordpress) has no option for SHOW EXCERPTS Frown. Or can it be done in some other way? let me know if you can...and what is SEO ?Cry didn't get it..

You blog regularly so that makes you already ahead of the game.  You cover  a variety of subjects - book reviews, poems, fiction and musings - that makes for great reading.  If I have any suggestions then it would be towards your blog template and the colour choice which make your blog a little hard to read.  Personally I find black text on a white background easier to read than other templates.  If you want readers to stay and read then it is better to follow certain standards:

Adorning the words rather thoughts and placing them so emphatically that those attract ones attention and engross as well.

Wonderful … when it comes to writing.

Four liners gives you a feeling of affection and flow…

I suggest if you can focus on one area of or one topic your writing will become more authoretive…

Maniparna!

I am in there now. I see lot of Indians here and am happy about them all. I used to always look for Indians at wordpress.

It its been a diffrent world here. 

My joining Indiblogger; shall all the credit go to YOU!

Here the comment box is pretty Good unlike the one at wordpress. But it doesnt check spelling mistakes.

In these three days of my enrolling some five six have added me to their Indiblogger network. These guys are purely in the marketing, but they do have real stuff. I have added them all to my network.

Happy blogging at Indiblogger!!!

WE shall see what's in store for us HERE !!! 

Love to You
