BLOGGING ASPIRATIONS

. THINKING TO THE FUTURE – BLOGGING ASPIRATIONS .

A little muse for todays feature, as you may have noticed from my last few editorials, I’ve been feeling rather excited and optimistic for the future these last few days. I don’t know what’s triggered it, as actually my live’s been quite manic, barely leaving a single minute to think about anything beyond a to b. But actually this craziness that is life, has made me fall in love with my blog even more, it’s my constant and mine, mine to choose and do what I want with, and there’s something empowering and exciting that comes with having your own thing to own and create.

My blog turned 4 this month and with that has come a really burst of motivation to keep pushing myself and to keep pushing myself forward. And so today I thought i’d share the 4 things I’m really hoping to achieve in the coming weeks, months, years on mediamarmalade.com

#1 CONTENT

Firstly, as i’m sure you know if you’re a regular reader, I put a lot of emphasis and work into my content. It’s the one thing on my blog that i’m always looking to improve and work on. In the last 12 months i’ve significantly changed the type of content I talk about, moving from style features alone, to a real mix of career, photography, blog and life tips and advice, as these things become the topics that i’m passionate and interested in, and in turn seem to add value to you guys too?

#2 PHOTOGRAPHY

I’ve always been a photography obsessive, and i’m always trying to improve the imagery, and creativity of the imagery I post on here. As with my shift in content to include lifestyle, career and blog advice or tips posts, i’m also looking to take my photography to the next level. Improving my styling and creativity to hopefully make each feature more enjoyable, bespoke and interesting to read.

#3 PARTNERSHIPS

I’m so lucky in that I get to work with some incredible brands on my blog, some of my favourite designers and high street brands, and actually whilst this element of blogging is something I never planned for, it’s actually an element I really truly love. Being able to partner with my most admired and adored brands to create unique, bespoke features that bring our two brands together is real honour, and I can’t wait for even more of these opportunities, and projects to come.

#4 INSTAGRAM

Instagram is often the bain of my life. I feel like I neglected it in the peak of the instagram boom around a year ago, and as such have seen quite slow growth on it. Naturally that can be quite disheartening, but with any challenge, I plan to tackle it head on and as such want to put even more focus and attention on creating the perfect ‘mediamarmalade‘ feed which I hope you guys, and more, want to see and follow.

#4 HAPPINESS

Ultimately my blog makes me happy, it’s an outlet for me to relax, unwind and channel my love for writing, photography and content in general. What I hope more than anything is that I continue to love what I do, love what I create, become more passionate, more motivated, and more happy by what this blog offers me. Both literally and metaphorically.
