Extremely Simple Advice For Bloggers

Subscribe in a reader Blogging Tips December 21st, 2007

For me, my outlook changed and I am now looking at life and my blog in a whole different way. Now all the things that probloggers were saying to do for the beginning steps of starting your blog, finally hit me. For instance, I was told to do just as much as you can, just keep doing it and not to be afraid to throw something out there to see if it sticks. Yeah yeah this is very basic and doesn’t help someone figure out what thier topics should be but EVERYONE has an interst or a hobby. If you can pin point that specific niche you are interested in and are passionate about then just go for it. See if it “sticks”. Another big tip I received in some form or another is to spend as much time commenting on other people’s blogs as you do posting on yours. Like I said before this is just a quick post for those beginners who have no idea where to start.

To start, I say not to worry about the SEO (search engine optimization) or the analytics. Find that something that you KNOW, love and want to share with people, then go out there everyday and write about it. You WILL build an audience.
Deborah Micek of the Sickest Blog System, said in an interview to just be there, get blogging, get podcasting and get video up on your blog as soon as possible. Video is something that is happening now, get on board that ship and learn the ways of video… Heck, I am attending the MasterSeminar here coming up the end of January in Vegas, and I plan on getting as much people as I can on video doing short interviews. Video is what people want to see, it is whats more entertaining and fun. Of course, I am all about that! Currently I am a part of Deb and JP’s Blog i360 program, I must say the hosting is a bit high but within a week my subscriber count went up about 8 more than where its at. Not much but for a week and two posts later but it was like magic. If you want to learn more about that program and what thier backend does for blogs and how much of a time saver it is, click HERE.
I am trying to not be everything to everybody, when you do that, you lose focus and the fun will end. So that goes back to focus on your passion and blog as often as you can.
