Reviewed by the ProBlogger community

Recently, Darren from ProBlogger started a Community Blog Consulting project where he gets his 37,000+ subscribers to constructively critique a blog. Many of these subscribers have successful blogs of their own (spanning countless industries) so when the consulting project was launched, I jumped at the opportunity to have the SiteMost blog reviewed.

The prospect of being mentioned on such a reputable site, the quality of the inbound link from ProBlogger, the additional traffic (which I hoped to convert into subscribers) plus the promise of some solid blogging advice all seemed fantastic… then it hit me.

I’ve just publicly asked a huge group of people to tell me what they really think of my site (which is in some respects a reflection of me)… I was effectively asking people to criticize me.

Fortunately everyone was not only incredibly helpful, but they were also very nice and amongst the constructive criticism, there were also some compliments. Overall, I’m really pleased with the feedback which you can read about here.

Even without making any changes yet, my subscriber numbers have nearly doubled and I expect that to improve even further as I incorporate the various community recommendations over the coming weeks.

I know that it might seem scary asking for this type of feedback, but as far as I’m concerned, it’s been one of the best things I’ve done.

Also, just because the review process is now complete doesn’t mean you should stop giving me feedback. Keep the comments coming and collectively we can make this one of the best blogs around.
