There comes a period when it is easy to find a few days off that you can take advantage of to make improvements to your blog.
I take advantage of bridges like a good Rodriguez who stays at home working, I don’t know but since I have something on the blog that doesn’t convince me, I’m looking forward to changing it on vacation.
I recommend that when you get into improvement projects on a website you try to have at least three days to get down to work to fix and do things that make us lazy in the blog and surroundings, so you can combine it with rest, you will not be overwhelmed and you can better plan priorities.
There are tasks that, if we did them in a row, would possibly take us more than 10 hours, it is very difficult to find that time in the midst of the whirlwind of routine, so you can transform a bridge at home without plans into something productive.
I do not know if it happens to you like me but my blog increasingly occupies more in my life and I have to adapt its physical and virtual space, that is why I have proposed these 4 tasks that will help you take advantage of a week of vacation with your blog.
If you have a week of vacation to dedicate your blog you can start doing complex things that at another time of year is almost impossible.
I propose 4 alternatives for you to take advantage of your blog on days off
# 1 Migrate your blog to another platform
Well yes, with a few days ahead of the migration you can do it with peace of mind because if you have more time much better to finish details Search Console, configure analytics…
The good thing about doing migrations and things that have to do with hosting is that on the bridge the technical service is almost exclusively at your disposal since the professionals are not working and will assist you faster.
About migrating, not migrating and other myths I have several posts:
It is a weighty decision but if you have made it, I recommend doing it on a bridge or in a week of vacation you can do it.
# 2 Change your blog template on vacation
The change of template is very cool and if it is to a premium it is much more cool, but be clear that it is an investment of time.
If you have never changed the template, it happens as with migrating the blog, the normal thing is to be more afraid than seven old women and to be careful trying everything, that is the ideal but over time we are trusting.
It is a very good idea to make staff changes on bridges because as a general rule they are a low visitation period, everyone is on vacation and not being exceptional cases you will not miss many visits.
It is also a relaxing time and you can take it as something comfortable, not a fixed gear.
You need time to spend an afternoon looking at templates in envato without any regrets, they can give me 4 in the morning… I’m the worst!
I do not want you to get discouraged but I do not like to warn before putting anyone in the mess of a change of staff: although there are simple ones that and easy to put on like a tracksuit, others are true eleven-rod shirts, then it is convenient that you have Of course, even if you put one-click installation, there are some more.
# 3 Improve or create the corporate image of your blog
In these days of relaxation, take the opportunity to get inspired by seeing more things, look for the colors or the type of font that you like, try to improve or make the logo you need.
It is not only the logo, but also how you present it on the networks, your headers, the style of your publications, your color palette... it may not be as big a task as a migration and change of staff but it has its own thing.
The change of look is one of the most impor
t is good to take advantage of vacations or spaces of several days to focus on making decisions, because they allow you to have a clear mind and time to be able to:
- Gather information
- Make Moodboards
- Inspire you and soak up the trends
- Have time to get things done
- Compare and search professionals
- Visit other similar blogs
4 Expand your blogging team
Many people will think that it is a whim but not at all, it is necessary to have a small but effective team.
Being comfortable with your workspace, no matter how small, is more important than you imagine, since it affects your disposition when writing, your mood and can even speed up your work.
TAKE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BUY A LAPTOP ON VACATION
I know people who run their blog from their mobile or tablet and recognize that it is hell, sometimes we do not need to invest a fortune for our blog (if we do not edit video).
Basically we need something very simple that serves as I would say “a computer for the internet, to watch videos on YouTube, manage Facebook and not hang Canva”, I’ll tell you how I ask the computers from the boy who bought them for more 20 years.
I recommend changing your computer or buying it on vacation because you have plenty of time to configure it, hopefully you can download all the apps you need and install a good work environment in a short time and with more speed… I notice that my neighbors are not there a lot hahaha.
I leave you a suggestion of very well-priced laptops that are enough for a blog, I have given my boy the Lenovo and it is going well, I am not in favor of killing flies with gunshots and it is convenient to go looking at computers in advance.

I have proposed this Easter to order it and make a visit to Ikea I may do because I need shelves and a table although I think I can get by on Amazon (for not carrying weight home)

Maybe I will change the office chair that has peeled me but I am indecisive between several styles:

Besides, getting your space to blog, order notebooks, write ideas… these are things that take up a lot of time that you don’t have on normal days and you can take advantage of it to make changes in your home to be more comfortable.
What four more sugar cane alternatives I have proposed, but if it is not at a time of year like this, in which the temperature is good, you have time, and there are tranquility in places that as long as you stay at home there is not a cat on the street… no I know what better time you can find.
Bridges are a good time to make changes to the blog for many reasons, are you one of the people who go on a trip or stay at home normally?
As you can see my proposal for the bridge is a change of look in my computer room, do you think I will achieve it? I put photos? I’m going to ask on Facebook and ask for opinions.
