Day 8 Book Blogger Challenge ~ Blog Appeal


The 15 Day Book Blogger Challenge is created by April at Good Books and Good Wine. Daily for the duration of 15 days each blogger participating will post their reply to the corresponding topic above. April will post up her daily response along with a linky so that participating bloggers can leave their own link to their daily post. Click on the event banner or link above for more information or to sign-up.

Here's my Book Blogger Challenge Responses:

Day 8 ~ Quick! Write 15 bullet points of things that appeal to you on a blogs!


  • Clean & Uncluttered 
  • Minimalistic Design - I love most of the Wordpress designs. 
  • Search bar - I don't like blogs without search bars, or a search bar that I've got to search for!
  • Cute and Attractive Designs - It may seem strange that I like both minimalistic AND designs but when I see a cute and attractive but not cluttered design, well I am more likely to go through their post contents. 
  • Post variety - I don't like blogs that only do all blog tours, or all cover reveals, or all memes, I like a variety of posts. 
  • No sounds - I really don't like the auto sounds as soon as you open a blog. I know at the moment my blog is doing it but I can't find the source of the damn noise! 
  • No GIF's - I know many love the GIF's but I'm just not into it at the moment, maybe I'll learn to love it in the future. 
  • Original features - I tend to remember blogs that have their own special features.
  • Easy on the eyes - I don't like blogs that are hard to read eg. dark background with dark header and dark title that readers are not even able to see the blog's title or those that have too many moving icons/pictures or background falling stars etc.
  • Ads - I don't want to see a inappropriate or non book related ads on a book blog.
  • Organised - I like blogs that I can see have some sort of organisation. Tabs for features and Review archives etc. Along with an organised sidebar, all following options on one side etc. 
  • No CAPTCHA - This is just annoying and I'm less likely to comment on those that have CAPTCHA.
  • Standout Reviews - Infused with personality, humour...just different from the other reviews. 
  • Themes - I love when the blogs theme is carried out from sidebar titles, any titles, ratings, contact me icons etc.
  • No Videos - I don't like haul videos because I find that even my favourite bloggers do alot of unnecessary talking/teasing in haul videos. I don't mind videos that are straight to the point and with purpose.
