The new year is a good time to evaluate your blog or website. An excellent time to evaluate exactly what you are currently doing and how it measures up with your original vision. Or better yet, is the original vision that got you started blogging in the first place still valid or does it need to be adjusted or changed in any way?
One of the most effective ways to judge what you’re really doing is to take a hard look at how you’re really spending your time.
Secondly, it is always good to take a look at all your websites and blogs in a fresh way. If you were a new visitor to your blog or site what would you actually see? Does it really reflect what you are trying to do?
Even more effective is to actually ask God for insight, inspiration, and vision—particularly if you are trying to do something in the way of ministry on the web or share your Christian witness with others.
After a week of prayer and evaluation, here are a few conclusions I have already come to:
1. After a ‘time’ evaluation I now realize that I have once more digressed into the bad habit of spending way too much time checking out and analyzing stats and getting caught up in all sorts of unnecessary tech issues and changes.
2. I need to spend more time on this blog (Blogging Ministry) and on my two Bible study blogs. Also, my main blog –Answers For The Faith needs a slight change of direction.
I have found that it is always good to take some time out every once in a while to evaluate what you are doing and to make any necessary adjustments. I usually try to do that every three months or so. After more than 15 years, I have found that the new year is a particularly good time to do a major tune-up and a re-commitment to a God given vision and direction. Praise the Lord for his help.
