think i need some advice from you.
You (most/some) of you are definitely aware that i have 2 other pages other than this, in the "pic" series.
quick picks - where you are now - which is on cooking and recipes exclusive.
pick quicks - right next door , (opposite of Quick Picks) ..yaani..anything other than recipes.
and the other one is in facebook -
note'y pic's - which features some childhood musica"notes", written "notes" and pictures. (now you get what's in this name ;)
And...what i have been thinking the last few days...
what if i merge all these three together into one?) Planning to do that in the facebook page..so that it gives links to both the blogs as well...along with the notes and pictures and music already in there)
What would you suggest ? But, in that case, will I have to change my fb page name to something else ...coz, the current one "note'y pic's" will not seem to get well with the contents to the page if i do.
Now..dont tell me to name it "sambar" or "avial picks" coz, it will be all the "picks" at one place... :p
confused..should i really merge it together ?..as i was not much keen on having a facebook page for my cook blog...and if i eventually do..then, the name of that page.
Any help ?? advice..dearst co-bloggers ??
Merging everything together is a better idea than maintaining 2-3 different blogs for different purpose, After all you are the author and your going to share your own experience Y not in 1 place?
ReplyDeleteumm..yeah..but what about the name thingy ??
Deletethanks Aara..done !
DeleteI have everything in one because I don't think I can manage a few at a time. Think of a name which can connect the different pages. Basically the name is up to you.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely have all at one place!!! It'l be easier 2 manage... :)
ReplyDeleteyppp...merge it in one place... :) dats easier 2 u n readers...all in single platformm !!!
ReplyDeleteMerge it dear, all in one place is better...
ReplyDeleteHey Sona Keep in different only.. Because ur readers are not the same. A person looking for recipe might not be interested in reading anything apart from that. Similarly the other way around.
ReplyDeletePutting all in one will have u in chaos to keep it organised. Its my personal opinion though.;)
very much appreciate your opinion..and its true what you have said. think i just keep each blog link separate for different taste buds.
DeleteYou are the best judge. I know how hard it is maintain one blog..and 3 that's a lot. I guess, to grow your blog, it might be a better idea to merge and have a day dedicated to topics. Like, there discussion Tuesday, Tip Thursday,,,something on those terms.
ReplyDeleteAnyways all the best and hope you find a solution and answer soon. Take care.
those are some real hands tips, Asha. thanks very much!
DeleteMarge everything together, so that it will very easy to manage for you.

Ahhh, combine everything dear! No reason to assume that you have three very independent set of readers for each of these spaces. And if someone is not at all interested in a section, they can just skip the post. It is so much hassle free and also it will be easier for readers than having to jump from one space to another.
ReplyDeleteAs far as a single, all pervading title is concerned - Hmmm, I am having a brain freeze right now. Nothing pops :( But hey - 'Quick Picks' could be seen as - quick picks from my(your :D) life, right? Be it cooking, craft or anything else...
(I think my brain is much frozen - I will be back later if I have something productive to offer ;))
jo hukkum mere aaka !!! well...honestly, there was no specific reason for selecting quick picks, but the rest of the names came in rhym whit that.
DeleteI would suggest to merge everything. I'm not sure how to do everything from a facebook page much, but even I write everything from recipes to simple musings to general topics all from one blog. Though the name is 'Manju's Eating Delights', everything isnt abt Eating ;-) , so I kept separate tabs, one called food - 'Recipe Index', one for other topics called - 'Other then recipes'. You could do that as well. AS for name, select one that gives the reader an idea that this blog has food stuff n other stuff as well...did i confuse u now :-)Whatever u choose I'll be there to read n laugh my gutts out !!
ReplyDeleteSona,
ReplyDeleteMerging everything into one becomes real avial paruvam for me.It becomes an extension of facebook by putting everything one likes. Depends on your posting, if u are planning to focus on ur recipes in future then keep that separate & organised and merge other two since they deal with similar emotions and topics.But if u plan to cut on food then merging three shd be ideal as u are brimming with ideas there shdnot be reader scarcity.
Regarding names-Yesterday Today Tomorrow ,SON SQUARE,Music musing and munching.he heee u are the best judge
thanks for the suggestion Meena...and the names...haa haa..liked it !
DeleteHi Sona, merging into one of course it's easier and convenient. But if you can handle and can manage your time, I don't see any problem with it. Some they want to maintain 2 or more blogs is due to posting different topics, so they want to keep it neat and organize.
ReplyDeleteI tried managing 2 blogs but eventually gave up cos it really take up a lots of my time. Now with google plus, email, FB, one blog...I practically got not much spare time to read my novels and craft work. :)
Whatever your decision, I'm still your number ONE stalker. LOL Glad to meet a wonderful blogger like you.
Have a lovely week ahead.
thanks a bunch for those nice words Amelia !!! huggsss !!!!

ReplyDeletethanks all for the replies. Appreciate it.You all did help in taking a decision.
ReplyDeletemanaging one blog is difficult for me with kids, so better to focus on which you like most. You mind your leader, so follow that.
