John Teh


By the end of 2004 blogs had established themselves as a keypart of online culture. "Blog readership shoots up 58% in2004 6 million Americans get news and information fed tothem through RSS aggregators But 62% of online Americans donot know what a blog is." - Pew Internet & American LifeProjectTip #1 - How and Where Should I Start?You should begin your blog with a free blog hosting servicesuch as Blogger (http://www.blogger.com), or other similarfree services such as JournalHome.com, LiveJournal.com orBlog-City.com. The learning curve for using such freeservices allow you to spend more on developing your contentrather than worrying about the advanced areas of scripting,hosting, or programming.Tip #2 - The Things You Should Decide to Write AboutAlthough not a required prerequisite for you in order towrite a blog, it is highly recommended to try to find atopic to write about based on your level of interest andknowledge. The higher your level of interest, the easier itis for you to get your quality content posted on your blog.Always try to choose an area which you can enthusiasticallywrite about on a daily basis.Try to pay attention to a nichewhich suites you well. A niche is basically a targetedproduct, service, or topic.Tip #3 - Always stay on topic.Opinions are generally accepted but the content of the itemsin the blog should all relate to a general theme. Themajority of your readers will be interested in the contentthat relates to a specific defined theme or loosely definedarea of interest. Define a topic and try not to run too faraway from it. This will ensure that you create a loyalfollowing of interested readers.Tip #4 - Information is king, be informative.If you are attempting to create the impression that you areknowledgeable about a specific industry or sector, be surethat you stay current on news. Checking your facts beforeyou're giving out an opinion or a product review is always agood idea, your reputation is at stake. If by any chanceyou're utilizing other people's articles for you blogcontent, ensure that you follow the terms of usage definedby the author.Tip #5 - Old news is not news, but old information can berecycled and made new. While blogging everyday can bestrenuous and time consuming, it is important that theinformation presented is current and accurate. Information,articles or any other archived resources can be recycled /modified to add more substance to your content. As long asthey're relevant and informative, there's no reason why it'snot a good approach.Tip #6 - Be disciplined and stick to a fixed postingschedule. Realizing that blogging requires time and effort,don't create unrealistic expectations and be unable todeliver. If you have worked hard to develop an audience anda community you don't want to lose them due to lack ofcommunication. If time is not on your side, take advantageof tonnes of automatically updating contents which areavailable for your blog. Looking at the constantly updatingnature of RSS feeds, other RSS feeds from similar topic canbe inserted within your blogging post.Tip #7 - Posting FrequencyIf your blog content is updated frequently, search engineswill tend to spider the pages at regular intervals. Updatingyour blog daily not only keeps your blog more interesting toreaders, but it also gives your blog fresh content on a dayto day making it more appealing to search engines. To keepyour blog traffic and retain your visitors interest it is amust to update your blog daily with multiple entries. Youshould try to update your blog everyday with at least 2 - 3or more daily entries, depending on your daily schedule.Tip #8 - Quantity matters.In order to attract the attention of search engines, youwill need to produce a relevant amount of content andinformation. A headline or simple sentence is not going togenerate the interest of readers or help with search engineranking. Be sure to archive old blog posts to develop alarge portal of similarly-themed content.Tip #9 - Clarity & simplicity / Short & ConciseKeep your posts and blog entries clear and easy tounderstand. Simplicity always produce better results at theend of the day.Aside from the lengthy article a week for syndication andpublication your blog entries should be short & concise (ifyou can help it). Should you insist on partaking on thelengthy road, try to maintain a clean paragraphing style,proper spacing, use different size, color and bold for yourtitles as well as the subtitles. Use bullet points, gostraight to the point and never run out of topic. Insertimages to spice up things if you're an avid fan of longposts.Tip #10 - Utilize the and tagsBeing one of the few most underutilized blogging formattingtags, these 2 items can help you on emphasizing certainpoints, in the most efficient and striking way. Formattingis simple and straightforward. Just HiWorld! and your message will apeardistinctively different from the rest of your text, thusgets more attention which it deserves. Take note that theformatting for these 2 tags differ from blog to blogdepending on how the owner defines the tag in the CSS(Cascading Style Sheets).Click the below link if you want to read more about CSS.==>http://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp

Tip #11 - Keyword-rich.
If the goal of your blog is to increase your visibility,
include related keywords in the title of the blog. Use the
title as a headline to attract interest. Each item post
should have a title that will attract attention but still be
relevant to the post. The title should be no longer than
10-12 words. Experiment with the titles if you must,
possibly try to avoid general and ordinary titles. Try to
include extraordinary and innovative titles to grab the
readers' attention.

Tip #12 - Spell checking and proof-reading.
It only takes a few extra moments and can save you from
having to make embarrassing explanations. The hazards of
Internet is that if you're too late to correct your mistake,
most likely it's already been crawled by the search engines
and read by many. It is extremely essential to think / proof
read carefully twice or even thrice, about what you post
before doing so. Take note of your language and grammar.

Tip #13 - RSS Feeds
RSS to a blog is like fuel to cars. Mostly every single free
blogs or bloggin software out there will have an automatic
RSS feed generating feature. Although it's most unlikely
that you'll find one without a RSS feature, simply leave it
and find a new one, if you happen to come across one without
it.

Tip #14 - The essence of the Internet - Traffic. It's no
secret. You must have traffic to realize the definition of a
blog.. There are numerous ways to build traffic. Paid and
free advertising, viral marketing, search engine marketing,
RSS/XML feeds, word-of-mouth, submitting to numerous blog
and RSS directories, etc. RSSBlogsubmit (
http://www.rssblogsubmit.com) provides a submission service
for your Blog & RSS feeds. You should always use your blog
URL address in the signature of your email, forum
discussions, message boards, or any other communication
media. Never forget to share your blog to your friends,
colleagues, and any other invidious that you know of.

Tip #15 - Track Your Blog
Tracking your blog does not have to be overly sophisticated
usually a simple free page counter like StatCounter.com,
ActiveMeter.com, Extremetracking.com or Sitemeter.com will
do the trick. Install (copy/paste) the code into the html of
your blog template and start tracking your visitors. Its
better to use a service which gives you advanced traffic
analysis, such as keyword tracking information, referral
information, and search engine information. Visitors,
returning visitors, and unique visitors should be standard
for any page counter service you choose.

Tip #16 - Make use of your Blog's statistical and tracking
information. Believe it or not, your visitors' information
from your tracking scripts will provide you priceless
information on how you can attract more readers. Keep note
on the keyword terms used from search engines which bring
you traffic. You can identify relevant closely related
topics which you can venture into and add more variety into
your blog, yet staying very much in topic. Simply put, more
topic coverage and more variety = more traffic. You may
analyze your tracking information further on how you can
strategize your blog's content. You can also apply some
keyword optimization strategies here.

Tip #17 - The essence of your Blog is your Audience, listen
to them. Always interact with your readers who post comments
on your blog. Reply with a brief thank you note or just
simply attend to their questions if they have any. It's a
proven fact when there's a direct human interaction and
knowing the fact that there's a "real human" at the other
end of the blog makes most of them coming back. If your
audience provide suggestions, comments or feedbacks, take
them constructively and inform them if you have any desires
of implementing such ideas on your next update. And of
course, don't forget to thank them for their ideas. If it's
a great idea, why not throw in a free gift? Mention their
website in your blog?

Tip #18 - Create and increase the "Why Must I Return" Value
to Your Blog
Everyone knows the fact that Blogs get a huge level of
returning visitors because of its constantly updated
content. Why don't you add more interesting items to that
return value by having fixed periodical posts / offers, e.g.
Monday Top 10 Tips, Picture of the Week, Free Bonus of the
Month, Free Daily Wallpapers, etc. to give them the absolute
excuse to return to your blog. As long as you can
efficiently and appropriately increase that Return Value
constantly, it is mostly guaranteed that you'll be getting
tonnes of repeated visitors, period.

An advance notice, prelaunch announcement or anything
similar to that also can act as a short term return value
strategy. Encourage readers to comment on your such notices
/ posts. Experiment and play around with this idea.

Tip #19 - Multiple blogs
It never hurts to use multiple blogging accounts to attract
more people. You can even have multiple blogs within
Blogger.com itself, but you may also want to try different
free blogging services such as JournalHome.com,
LiveJournal.com, Blog-City.com, etc. Should you have the
urge to have multiple similar duplicates of your blog just
to gain more traffic, it is wise to avoid it as search
engines / feed directories might translate that as excessive
redundant information which simply brings you trouble, and
you're tend to get penalized, banned or even accused of
spamming.

Tip #20 - Digital Art, Creative Graphics Another proven fact
- Monotonous and continous display of text will make your
readers run away! Try to include non- advertising graphics,
pictures, photos, and art in your blog entries, but try to
keep them at a limit. Too many graphics also mean slower
loading time and messy text and graphical combination. You
don't want your blog to look messy. Most of the time,
graphics can bring your blog to life. Pictures can make
boring texts interesting no matter how long it is. Graphical
elements are by far the fastest message delivering element
available on the net today. It may deliver various messages
by a split second of a look.

Tip #21 - Maintain a Personal Blog
A blog is most successful when it is kept personal. Try to
include personal experiences which relates to the topic of
your blog entry. Stay away from the business style of
writing. Write with a more personal style and use first-
person narratives. Share product reviews and personal
endeavors, instead of trying to make it sounds like you're
selling.

Tip #22 - Credibility & Popularity
As thing progresses, things need to change in order to cope
with the flow and nature of development. If your number of
readers are reasonably huge, and still using a free blogging
service to get your messages out, you may want to consider
getting your own domain name and hosting plan to have a more
personalized Blog.

Domain names and hosting plans are pretty much
straightforward. Research is all what it takes to get the
best of all the available options. For the most highly
recommended comprehensive listing of Free Blogging software
out there, drop by at http://www.opensourcecms.com/. This is
by far the best place to drop by if you want to get your
research done about which blogging software to choose.
Reviews, ratings, public votes, demos, etc are provided. And
the best thing is, all of them are Open Source, which means
they are totally free. Try going through the server
requirements for each software before purchasing your
web hosting.

Tip 23# - Customize the look of your Blog
If you happen to be using one of the Free blogging services
out there, you might notice that most of us are using the
same template again and again for our blogs. It is well
understood that not everybody has the technical knowledge to
change the layout as how they want it to be, but if you have
the knowledge, by all means try to customize it and make it
look DIFFERENT. You can grab that extra attention, if you're
different in certain ways. Create that image for yourself.

Tip #24 - Blog and Make Money

Once your blog has gained some real momentum and your blog
traffic is increasing then it is time to start thinking
if you want to turn your traffic into profit. Some of the
recommended income generating sources are as follow :-

Google Adsense, Amazon Associate program (www.amazon.com),
Blogads.com, Crispads.com, Tagword.com, Affiliate Programs
and any advertising related text links can be your place to
start off.

Final #Tip - Conclusion.
Following these blogging tips should make your blogging
experience much more rewarding. Blogging is generally done
out of interest and enthusiasm and sometimes for income
generating purposes. The flexibility of blogging will never
cease to expand. Through time, dedication, and persistence
you will be rewarded with all the royalties of blogging.

Finally, A Glorious Life.

I am a work at home mom. Forget the Hype, it is not easy to be a working single mother. Had too many diaper days with no money. Their Father donated his plentiful sperms, but never any money to go along with the results.

Yep, got my belly swollen 3 times, and two girls and a boy popped out. Each time was supposed to be different - but on the third fertilized sperm, I got serious. I needed to look after things. That night, he went to get his SH### together. I suppose he did. I never saw him again.

Eviction Notice at the door, my sperm donator gone, and I have 3 crying, hungry babies to feed and care for ...

I grabbed his computer, Yep !! - The SH###T bought computer, no Formula. and was about to throw it out the window, something inside stopped me. Did you know, it was working, so that is how I survived. Dreaming online of The Good Life.

Yep, I am a Home Income Portal Owner for years now, and with my income close to a Million a Year, I can Afford my Lifestyle. I never saw my Sperm Donator, but I have his computer framed and mounted on the wall as my Trophy, and yes - You are going to LOVE this ...

I had a custum made blow up of him in my relax room. Everytime I need to unwind, I would punch him a few times, but he always come back up for more. It is my Life Challenge to Punch him so much, he will Go Down and Stay Down.
