31 Days to Build a Better Blog

Darren Rowse of ProBlogger is kicking off his 31 days to build a better blog project again. I signed up to be a part of it when it starts April 1st. If you own a blog, run a blog, write for a blog, this is something you should get in on.

There are over 1000 people that signed up in the first few minutes after being announced. By signing up with your email you get a little more information that what he posts on his blog. You don’t need to sign up but by putting your name out there, it makes the rest of the Internet hold you accountable.

After the project is over I will write a review of the concept and how I feel I did. As always, comments are welcome.
