Blogging Tips
Sunday, January 10, 2010
Maintaining a blog in the long run is a bit difficult especially if you want to have a successful one. Many people who tried writing blogs had initially high passions for blogging but after some time, they neglected their blogs until it finally died. There are only a few bloggers who maintain weekly posts for a large number of subscribers. If you want to know their secrets to maintaining successful blogs for many years, just read on.
The first one is to write only about the things you know and love. Never write about something that you hardly know of and what you don’t like. Most individuals who want to write blogs often choose topics that are of great interest to other people, and of course, themselves. Make sure that you choose a topic that you're interested and eliminate those that you don’t like, even if the topic is said to generate more traffic. As long as you're passionate about the topic, go on and write a blog about it.
When you're writing a blog, make sure that you have a new, funny, and smart insight. If you're about to write something that was already written by other bloggers, stop writing about it and instead, try to think about a new and better idea or insight. Choose another topic instead.
The next helpful tip is to be creative. As always, creativity is very important in maintaining successful blogs. Once you've posted a certain idea, don’t repeat it all over again. Adapting fresh ideas of other bloggers is definitely not a good idea. If you want to gain the loyalty of your subscribers, you must always try to be original in every blog you write. This way, your loyal subscribers will stay hooked on the blogs you make.
It is also good if you always consider your readers. Your blogs are like featured columns and so you must update at least weekly. Try to add new posts so that you will not be forgotten. If in case you can't write new posts, try to inform your readers.
Try to socialize with the readers. You can encourage them to take an active part in your blog by adding polls and asking questions. They will be more than glad to add personal comments. If you want to improve your blogging skills, you must also read the blogs of other bloggers.
The internet is an untamed area and if you want to survive this kind of world, you must have a skin like that of an elephant. Expect to receive harassments and anonymous insults. Women bloggers can get very sensitive and so if you're a woman blogger, you must ahve an elephant skin. Ignore the insults and harassments as long as your privacy and safety is not affected.
These blogging tips are really effective, so you'd better think about them and incorporate them in your blogging.

Useful Tips for Blogging Beginners
Thursday, January 07, 2010
Here below you will find some helpful tips on effective blogging.
Tip # 1: Put a headline
See to it readers have an idea of what they are reading. Don’t put a write-up or a video blog with no sense at all. Make it a point that they participate by giving out opinions and comments. Think of what’s interesting to read. Let the readers be captivated, to do so, begin with your title. Make it a head turner. Motivate by grabbing their attention.
Tip # 2: Build paragraphs
Every blog consists of one thought. That doesn’t necessarily mean you must imitate that thought by maintaining one whole paragraph per se. Split your ideas. Cut them down into bits. Compose sub ideas that’ll support the whole picture. Don’t give your viewers a hard time reading a big rock. Break them into marbles.
Tip # 3: Characterize
Put some attitude in your writing. Don’t be so serious about your blog. Ensure the quality must go hand in hand with lightness. Act as if you’re speaking up to the whole world. Spice your blog up a bit. Argue. Make them react. Make them feel. Add emotions and not just plain writing.
Tip # 4: Time-bound
Old news could be pretty boring. Blend it with the new. Update it. Or better yet, revise it. It’s in the nature of humanity to search for something relevant, acceptable, contributing and most of all. Current issues are always an eye-catcher. So brush up those research skills.
Tip # 5: Install
Yes you are a blogger. But that doesn’t mean you are good at it. So even before your readers would boast how incapable your writing talents are, block it. Install an anti-spam software and tools to filter those comments and keep them moderate. Comments may either be positive or negative. So make sure you accept the good ones and trash away the bad.
Tip # 6: Stay Real
Don’t go astray with your posts. A fundamental aspect of blogging is the contribution it would make for the media. Personal relations must be established. Maintain a constant conversation. A way to do this is by staying true to your every word. Pinky-swear on it. Nobody would believe a fraud. Create significant value that would result for your readers to keep coming back for more.
Tip # 7: Respond
Respond to your comments. Don’t let it go unnoticed. If your reader asks you a question, be ready to answer. Silence is not a benefit with this kind of industry. Be aware of what people think and note their reactions. If they do react, provide a satisfying answer. If criticisms arise, take it smoothly.
Tip # 8: Advertise
If your blog goes unnoticed, it doesn’t mean that it’s useless. At least you get to satisfy your writing abilities. But if you still lack a reader’s attention, why not advertise your blog? All you need to do is go to other sites and post out a comment on their blogs and at the same time, invite them to visit yours. It’s a give and take process.
