Content is King

This is the new assignment for the BIP, and it's a doozie!
Week 3 of the Blog Improvement Project is all about writing different kinds of content. It’s easy to get into a pattern of writing the same kinds of posts over and over again, but sometimes it can be fun to spice it up, or at least have ideas about other ways to present your ideas.
I did a search about kinds of blog posts and came across many articles about kinds of blog posts:
20 Types of Blog Posts
The 5 Types of Blog Posts that Experts Write
All 13 Types of Blog Post

Blog Post Bingo!

* Take a look at the 10 types of blog post below. Over the next two weeks, try to write as many of these different kinds of posts as you can.
  1. A Link Post - share a series of links your readers might find interesting
  2. A Short Post - less than 200 words
  3. A List Post - simple as it sounds, a list of some sort
  4. An Opinion Post - take an event, news, or another blog post and share your opinion on it
  5. A Poll or Question Post - post a poll or ask your readers a specific question for feedback
  6. A How-To Post - You’re an expert in something; big or small, share how to do it
  7. A Long Post - more than 700 words
  8. A Review Post - self-explanatory, I think :)
  9. A Definition Post - show your expertise about a topic related to your blog
  10. FREE SPACE - a type of post of your choice (that is not the same as one of the previous posts)
* By Saturday, February 14 at MIDNIGHT, post a link to wrap-up post detailing which of the post types you’ve completed.

It's a lot to accomplish in under 2 weeks, but I'm going to give it a good try. I will cross them off and link to the post as I complete each one.

Completion date: February 14th
