John 3:16 Be thankful, grateful, patient, charitable, kind, and don’t forget to smile, as it is infectious. God Bless America and Protect Our President and Military!
I find that keeping your website simple and less categorized increases one-on-one engagement. I try to write my blog like an Op-ed page that allows input and welcomes responses to the daily prompt. I do not allow advertising; I have sections for shopping, books, poetry, and more, as it just detracts from the gist of my page, which is to interact with my readers.
Try to take advantage of Social Media sites, e.g., Twitter, Threads, Reddit, LinkedIn, Facebook, Bluesky, and Next Door, where I get most of my hits.
Point to Ponder: Aim to keep your responses brief, ideally no more than a few paragraphs. Express your viewpoint clearly while avoiding divisiveness. Feel free to sprinkle in a bit of humor, whimsy, and creativity. Don’t hesitate to share your thoughts openly if you’re seeking honest feedback! Welcome all who take time out of their day to read and respond, whether you agree, like, or even take offense, as they are entitled to their opinion. The whole purpose is to give an open platform, to open the floor up for debate or discussion.
