Pro Tips

  1. Reuse author profiles: Once an author is added to _data/authors.yml, reference them by name
  2. Consistent tagging: Use existing tags where possible for better navigation
  3. Image optimization: Keep JPEGs under 500KB for faster loading
  4. Engage with emojis: Use 3-5 strategic emojis for visual interest
  5. Internal links: Link to previous related posts in your content
  6. SEO titles: Include key terms naturally in your title
  7. Call-to-action: Always end with a clear next step (register, join, learn more)
  8. Local testing: Run bundle exec jekyll serve before committing
