I of course check the schedule in the dashboard to make sure im writing on a topic that hasnt already been covered. I do think the design needs a little bit of a change.

The writing here is top class. However, I mainly wrote this post because of the lack of team work. I think we are missing a lot of opportunities on search such as stumbleupon, digg, mixx, propeller, etc. We should also be a member of Blogburst, because articles im sure would be published.

But that is just promotion. We also need someone dedicated to business development and advertising.

I think Pureblogging is such a good blog it really needs to take the next step and actually become a business. Much in the same way Mashable has progressed.

As far as posting schedule is concerned, i have been assigned to post on Mondays. It seems to me that everyone posts the same day each week, although I can’t say for sure. If there’s some confusion there I’m sure we could work it out.

What I’m really trying to get at is that I’d love to see the blog grow, not jump the shark.

I know I can do a better job of brainstorming for keywords when I fill out WordPress’s “all-in-one SEO pack.” And speaking as someone who does SEO copywriting as a job, I know I can also work a bit harder at increasing the incidence of important keywords in my own posts. So there’s one thing.

I’d also like the opportunity to do more videoblogging and podcasting — but right now we don’t have the proper plugins, at least for videoblogging.

I don’t think I’d characterize our work as “lame fluff,” but I do agree that there’s really no ceiling to the quality of what we should be writing, and there’s no reason we shouldn’t all push ourselves a little harder.

I may be signing my own pink slip by writing this (or worse, someone else’s), but I suspect part of the problem (assuming there really is one) is that there are nine bloggers here doing what three or four could be doing.

I have an with David to write a post per week. Since I only write one post per week, I devote a relatively small part of my week to PureBlogging. When I read this post on Copyblogger about the time it takes to create great content, a light went on in my head: fewer bloggers writing more posts would mean more time spent per individual blogger simply thinking about PureBlogging. I suspect that would make for better content.

I hope it doesn’t sound like I’m angling for David to drop anyone — actually, I think if he took my advice under serious consideration, it’d be a good idea to put me on the chopping block, since I’m not even operating my own blog right now. We’re all pretty great writers, and I’m consistently amazed at the level of great content I see here.
