Live Well Be Fabulous’s 2017 Top 10 Reader Favorite Posts

 

Each year, I’m always surprised and delighted by the variety I find in the top 10 reader favorite posts. Analyzing these posts also helps me plan and organize content for the upcoming year so I’m providing the most value to those of you who have been faithful readers for years.

As 2017 comes to a close, I’m excited to announce we experienced our largest spike in readership since we posted that first post (which was actually just an image…LOL) back in January of 2014.

As the blog moves in a new direction, we’ll be focused more on living a healthy lifestyle as we originally planned for this blog years ago. We’ll continue to provide quality posts on starting and growing your blog (as we’re still doing) and yes, the Fashion Files and A Fashion Story will return in the spring of 2018.

We also have some very special promotions planned during our 2018 edition of the 21 Days of Loving Me Fest. I’m both excited and nervous about all the fabulous things we’re planning for you to experience in 2018.

Let’s take a walk through the top 10 posts of 2017.

This post made the top 10 in 2016 as well. We update this resource on a regular basis since the steps involved in starting and setting up a blog changes from time to time.

 I wrote this one in response to the way I felt after the sudden loss of my beloved brother in July of 2017. The post was shared many times on Pinterest and I received several emails of thanks for writing such a heartfelt and useful piece of content.

Who couldn’t use a good home decor guide? I most certainly can. You enjoyed the tips and shared the post on Pinterest (lost my share counts after upgrading the site to https…sad face). Look for more of these in the upcoming months.

What can I say? Italy rocks. I’m planning to embark on my own live Italian exploration in 2018, so stay tuned for many more posts like this one.

We’re visited by a variety of readers that range in ages between 22-55 and they come from all levels of social and marital statuses. The popularity of this post goes to show there’s plenty more room left to explore the benefits and values of relationships.

See the blurb in bullet point number four!

We love our pets! No kidding. The response to this one inspired me to jump-start another labor of love I’d been planning for many years… https://kittycatsoapbox.com! Cat lovers unite! Take a peek at the new site when you have a chance.

Yes, we’re going to need this one in another week or so once the dust from the excitement of the holidays settles down.

In this special edition of Crush Craves called President Grant’s Dream Girl, you enjoyed our collage of Olivia Pope (aka Scandal) date night outfit inspirations. And yes! We’ll keep going strong with the Crush Craves series. No worries!

The Bloggerly Life is going to be Live Well Be Fabulous’s first online course in 2018. The goal is to keep the material simple by providing easy-to-follow instructions and a clear understanding of what it takes to start, maintain, and grow a blog in 2018!

Thanks so very much for all your support throughout the last four years! I’m looking forward to sharing 2018 with you as well.
