2014 Blogging and Reading Goals


2014 is here!  I can't believe it.  It's time for some goals.


Book Blogging Goals:

  • Get my netgalley percent up to the 80% I discovered it's supposed to be at  (discussed here) ... who knew?  If you don't get your rate up you'll be more likely to get denied access to books.  
  • Attract more followers.  I want people to come to the blog have fun and for them to want to talk about books!  I don't really have a number of followers in mind.  I guess I would like to start getting higher number pages views a day.  Maybe more like 60-80 page views a day.  
  • Keep improving my blog layout.  I have had the same blog design for a few years now but don't want to change it because I think people identify my blog with it.  But I do like to keep tweaking things. 
  • Keep up my Sunday Post... I never did this because I didn't really enjoy taking pictures of the tons of books I got from the library.  Then I saw people not just talking about what they received in books.. but what they would see out on the blogs, and just all kinds of other information.  I love it when those posts are fun and hope to make mine better and better. 
  • Have an event of some type at the blog.. a readathon... or another month of fun (like my Wizard of Oz month). 

Reading Goals:

  • I want to hit my goal of 100 books this year.  I am determined.  I feel like I read a ton of books but I never actually reach 100. 
  • Keep reading with my goodreads bookclubs.  Trust me this can be hard and annoying.  I have to set up the polls, get people motivated to participate, and all that jazz.
