It’s day eight of a posting fever for bloggers taking part in the NaBloPoMo challenge. For those of you wondering about what type of tongue-twisted soirée you have stumbled upon, the program’s slogan says it all. “Post until the Internet explodes.” It’s not too late to create a blog and contribute to the spirit of National Blog Posting Month.
Organized by avid blogger Eden Marriot Kennedy and inspired by the National Novel Writing Month contest, NaBloPoMo challenges the bloggers to author one post per day for the entire month of November. According to NaBloPoMo’s website, the roster of bloggers has doubled to an estimated 4,000 members since the program’s start in 2006.
Writing Aspirations, Melting Mama, Hollywood Flakes, Life With Heathens, Pinch My Salt, Big Fat Deal, The Silent “I”, and The Secret Government EGGO Project are among the many BlogBurst members contributing to the NaBloPoMo competition.
Are you blogging for NaBloPoMo? Leave us a note in the comments section. If you are looking for inspiration for your next blog post and want to increase your chances for pickup by publishers, consider blogging about the following subjects:
- Thanksgiving recipes
- Black Friday
- Holiday gifts and gadgets
- Holiday entertaining
- Holiday travel
- Holiday finance
- Retirement news and politics
- Basketball (NBA and NCAA)
I’m participating.
NaBloPoMo will be the worst thing that ever happened to the blogging profession.
Now we’re going to have millions of bloggers filling up the blogosphere with the worthless posts, in a zealous endeavor to meet the goal. How will that improve the credibility of bloggers as bonafide journalists?
Well, I didn’t know I was going to be blogging Thirty Posts in Thirty Days, but I already had a good start, so I’m in. My blog is http://www.lesasbookcritiques.blogspot.com.
Thanks for the write-up!
Gee, I’ve been a member here for ages and an avid blogger who has been recognized by some top cats. Yet, I keep getting told FOOD BLOGGERS are not of interest to the audience here. Hmm, yet I see Thanksgiving recipes and holiday entertaining top suggestions here. Boston Globe also writes about food bloggers, as does Boston Herald, oh and the NYTimes among others…oh well, maybe it’s just here in this little NE corner of the US…
I post 2 to 3 stories on average on a 6 day basis.
I take a break either Saturday or Sunday…
So I guess I write way more than the 30 posts per month that you mention.
I do not count.
It depends on time and inspiration.
My most popular topics this week are the Chocolate Show in New York and Diwali (the Indian Holiday) starting today.
Have a great day

Between three bloggers, we ought to be able to manage 30 posts in 30 days. Actually, it might be an achievement to blog ONLY that much.
And, since our blog is called “Three Wise Men”, we’re expecting our annual spike in traffic soon!
I will be doing my part at Born Again Bird Watcher for NaBloPoMo.
Topics will include bird watching, nature study, natural history, book, optic, and birding related product reviews, and anything else of likely interest to the birding and conservation communities.
From which date does this contest begin? My last post was on 7 Nov. Now what should I do with the gap till today? Should I post them now?
I am blogging with NaBloPoMo. So far it has been fairly easy to post everyday. Hopefully I will feel that way all month!
