Leadership #AtoZChallenge 2026

Our team theme this month is “Aspirations: Blogging hopes, dreams, and goals”.

What does it mean to take a leadership role in blogging? 

We keep hearing over and over again that blogging is outdated. That people are migrating to newer, quicker, more streamlined platforms that allow faster posting, more content, and less time spent on reading.

And yet, here we are. Doing a blogging challenge. Not only blogging, but blogging every day in April, and for years and years in-between.

So what makes someone a leader in blogging?

Here are a few of my thoughts:

- Integrity. Being true to your interests, your voice, and your preferences. No giving in to the "more, more, faster, faster!" pressure of social media. Taking the time to post throughtful things.

- Community. Supporting other bloggers, boosting their posts, commenting, connecting. Not only shouting into the void, but listening to others.

- Craft. Posting well written text, well selected pictures, original thoughts. Not giving into copyright infringement or plagiarism for the sake of faster production. Holding others to the same standard and boosting the ones who are posting quality content.

- Sharing. Not hiding everything behind paywalls, not trying to sell something in every single post. Participating in the gift economy by sharing advice, information, curiosities, resources freely online. Making the internet a more open space along with other bloggers.

It's your turn now! What would make someone a leader in the blogging sphere?

  2. That's a great post and I really never thought about leadership in my blogging, but I hope that maybe someone reading might learn something new and I guess in a sense that makes me a leader of sorts. I like to learn something new every day and that's what my post is about today: Learning

  3. Not exactly what I had in mind when thinking of leaders, but anyway... "L is for Lich".
