HAVING FUN WITH COLLECTIONS
Let’s think about...
● How to start a new Collection● How to create quality Collections● How to maintain and ensure the success
of your Collections
![Page 26: Collections 101 panel event presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042907/587e376b1a28ab9f5d8b4f13/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
STARTING A COLLECTION
How do you create a Collection and have fun?
Whether it’s your first time or not…Not a photographer?Not a blogger?Don’t use social media professionally?Or you’ve simply run out of ideas?
NO SWEAT!
KEEP CALM
AND
CREATE ON
![Page 27: Collections 101 panel event presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042907/587e376b1a28ab9f5d8b4f13/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
STARTING A COLLECTION
Look around you for the ordinary, everyday opportunities
Breakfast? Lunch? Journey to work or school? Like movies, music?
● Think of an idea or theme● Then come up with a title ● Don’t forget the tagline ● Make sure your theme has
long term potential!
![Page 28: Collections 101 panel event presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042907/587e376b1a28ab9f5d8b4f13/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
STARTING A COLLECTION
Start with the easy stuff!Rick loves posting about the food he cooks and eats at home
Here, Zvonimir posts about his everyday activities

CREATING QUALITY COLLECTIONS
Now let’s talk about quality!
● Images and words ● Who, what, when, where and why
![Page 30: Collections 101 panel event presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042907/587e376b1a28ab9f5d8b4f13/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
CREATING QUALITY COLLECTIONS
Best practices for sharing pictures or links from blogs
● Upload a picture on Google+● Have a clear bold title● Give a short description● And then provide a link if
you have one
In my experience, an image uploaded on G+ is more effective than sharing a link from your blog
Blog link with 74 +1’s vs. G+ upload with almost 200 +1’s
![Page 31: Collections 101 panel event presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042907/587e376b1a28ab9f5d8b4f13/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
MOVING FORWARD
How do you maintain and ensure the success of your Collections?
● Don’t spread yourself too thin● Post often ● Repost old posts● Engage and reciprocate● Reshare● Collaborate

Lisa’s Collection is all about resharing posts by other food bloggers
Jasmina’s Collection is full of reshares of beautiful images by photographers
