Spring Is In The Air!

I’ll tell you a secret; Spring is my favorite time of year. It’s not the fresh-faced daffodils and tulips, or the Sparrow’s returning song, nor is it the return of reasonably priced berries in the grocery store. Hands down, the absolute best part of Spring is the super energizing phenomenon of Spring Cleaning. If you’re like me (giddy about cleaning and passionate about lists), read on for ideas on doing a bit of Spring Cleaning in your guides!

  • Are you using the same content over and over in your guides? Now’s a great time to come up with a Reusable Content Strategy for your links to resources, content boxes, and even entire pages.
    • Create a centralized “Storage“, or “Template” guide, and create “linked” versions of that content throughout your guides
    • Any future changes to your storage content will automatically update in all the “linked” versions across your site!
  • Thinking about a site redesign? Check out the Best Of Customizations for a bit of inspiration!
  • Been holding on to outdated, unpublished content? Spring is a great time for weeding and decluttering!
  • Looking for ideas on new goodies to embed in your guides? Check out Using Interactive Tools in your Guides for some fresh ideas!
