Meeting with, getting to know and discussing different blogging subjects with other bloggers is a nice way to get motivated to improve your blog and take it to another level. I am one of the organizers of one of the blogging meetup events in London, the London Blog Club.

Our first ever blog meetup was on February 2nd and 12 bloggers showed up. It was a very informal meeting where bloggers were able to get to know each other and where everyone got a chance to speak a bit about their blogging experience and dreams.

London Blog Club – goals and tasks

We ended up agreeing that in case that you want to improve your blog, you must set some short-term goals, some task that you will do and you must follow them consistently. A task was given that everyone must make some blogging goals and work on them during the time until the next meetup, which is on 10th March.

Some of the blogging goals were to write a certain amount of posts per week consistently for 4 weeks, one of the other goals was to write a certain amount of guest posts to promote your own blog, and another goal was to get in touch with 10 or more new people from your target group daily and that way increase your influence and readership.

The deal for our next meetup is to check up on the progress of people and their blogging goals, see what has been done since the last meetup, what results have been achieved and what lessons have been learned. Will be interesting to hear…

“I cannot wait for the next meetup”

Some of the comments about the first meetup:

• Mark Waterfield “ Very informative. I took away some great ideas which I now need to action”

• Elzette “It was everything I was hoping for, for a first blog meetup of this group. Great discussion about all the different kind of blogs. Great advice and insight was given. I can not wait for the next meetup!”

The next London Blog Club meetup is on 10th March, same place – Pitcher & Piano in Holborn, London. See all details and sign-up for this free event on London Blog Club page.
