I Want the Good Times Back

Day 223 – August 11, 2018

Beach Patterns – Lens Artists PC / #SixWordSaturday / Cat – RDP#72 / Attitude – FOWC / Harmony – WODC / Gulls&Birds – citysonnet DWP

I got this pretty late last night, well actually very early this morning. I am also including a second beach pattern below.  The beach was full of “sand sculptors” building their creations for a competition Sunday morning.  While this is not completely made with sand, there are many elements that have sand as the texture.  It is an awesome display of mixed medias.  Neptune (Roman), or Poseidon (Greek), god of the seas, possesses a pretty bad attitude.  While he is able to bring harmony to all creatures of the sea, he is also blamed for many of those lost at sea as his temper is told to be rather violent.  At least that’s what Wikipedia claims. Hope all are having a great weekend.  And if you have read this much, if anyone may have insight as to what might be wrong with my blog, I would greatly appreciate hearing from you.  While my intention has never been to follow stats, I couldn’t help noticing that the visitors and views have dropped off by 90%.  If it’s the quality of the blog, I can definitely accept that, but I just think I changed a setting or something.  So all you seasoned bloggers out there – help?

  1. Hi there-cool choice for our challenge. My only thought is when you have more than 15 tags + categories your post doesn’t show in any of them. So people who use the reader aren’t seeing your post. Also, if you follow your own blog make sure your post is showing up in the “Followed” section of the reader I suspect bloggers aren’t seeing your posts

    1. Should I follow my own blog? Thank you so much for the other info. I don’t thunk I have been keeping track of those dang tags. Any advice on tagging? I really appreciate the help!

      1. Definitely follow yourself! It’s the best way to make sure everything’s working. Once u follow yourself check the Reader Followed section to make sure it’s showing up. Re tags, definitely add total #of tags plus categories and do not go over 10. Then you’ll be in the Reader for your 10 choices. That’s where bloggers go to like and comment. Good luck!
