I’m just doing Season 3 of My Friend Alexa but I’ll give you a few tips to survive #MyFriendAlexa:

• Prepare in advance because so much of work during challenge you might end up with thought overload.
• Keep cool don’t overdo the reading, no one can handle 100 posts/day
• Comment, read and share this list provided to you.
• Keep a theme or series on 8 blogs you’ll gain more traffic.
• Do not forget to add “reading and writing #” on shares.
• If you have some days busy, comment on the list in advance but share on the allotted day it’ll ease off the work of busy days (I usually do it on Sundays to make-up for busy Mondays).
• Keep next post ready to post or schedule it in advance, after you’ve linked it to Blogchatter Linky. (keep 1 post in drafted in advance)
• Spread the love you’ll receive love.

These are my few tips for #MyFriendAlexa Challenge I still have a long way to go before I sleep.

Happy Blogging.
