Reader Survey + Giveaway

team-wiking-new-survey-giveaway

If you follow along regularly, you probably noticed that recently I made some changes to Team Wiking. The header and layout were the biggest changes, but I also switched up the sidebar, and added a floating navigation, as well as a back to top button to try to make your experience at Team Wiking a little better. The changes I made were in hopes of making it easier to navigate and read content. Any feedback you have I would appreciate in the comments below, or in the 2014 Reader Survey (ended).

    What a great way to read a blog. IT is clear and not smushed together. There is room to read and enjoy what is being posted.

      It says in really big letters, TEAM WIKING READER SURVEY above the giveaway, the link is also in the giveaway. And it’s also at: http://www.teamwiking.com/2014-reader-survey/ 🙂

      Yes, I know. This one is def. not as responsive. The dimensions are off for some reason, I’ve been working on it. 🙂

    Took the survey. You have a gorgeous blog and I love the font choice. There’s a great balance between the different type of posts (photo, text, etc). The sidebar is also really great, lots of info but not all stuffed in haphazardly.

    I love that your layout is very simple – classic. And I do love the addition of the floating bar – especially that it’s not too big! I just hate when people have a bar that takes almost half their page!

    Reply
    1. Jessica

      Thanks, that’s great to hear. I really wanted it to help ease navigation, especially since I know some of my posts become very “long” with all of the images.

    I really like how clean and simple the new blog layout is – not that it wasn’t great before too 🙂
    It’s easy to navigate and there’s nothing jumping out distracting from the post which is great. So many blogs have too much going on.
    Oh, and I wish I had that upcoming travel schedule! Iceland and Sweden – can’t wait to travel along with you online 🙂
