Blogging For People Starting Out Need Not Be That Difficult.
When you first start to write your own blogs, you may feel that you cannot compete with all these great blogs that you have been reading lately.
When you start blogging, it does not need to be a daunting prospect. What you need to do is either start writing about something you know or are involved in.
If the answer to that is nothing, then you will either need to go and start Googling some interests that you have.
Copy and paste as much information you can into a folder, with its name on it. Then you can go and start writing that information in your own words. Do not copy and paste it into your blog. Google has a dim view on that.
You are better off rewriting it in a notepad or an HTML editor, and when you have finished rewriting it, then copy and paste it into your blog.
If you like a particular actor or band, writing about them will be always to a topical subject.
You can usually find videos on them in YouTube or Vimeo or one of the other video sites. Get a link to them and put them on your blog.
When writing your blog,try to only use authentic material not rumors. You can get into big trouble if you write a blog that is actually based on a lie. You can get sued, so don't do it.
As long as you write about something that has been reported in the news, then you can put your opinion on the story.
This is a good way to get a few conversations going on your blog between people of different opinions.
Being controversial is usually good to get people to start arguing among themselves on your blog.The idea of a blog is to get people to come and read it and make comments about it.
As far as to how often should you update your blog, the jury on that will always be out. Some say everyday, some twice a day, some say write about 5 blogs and that's it.
It really is up to you. If you like to visit your blog everyday to read the comments and such, well then you may as well write a short post everyday. You cannot write too many posts.
When you have written a few you will need to set up some categories. These categories would be basically what groups of posts are loosely about.
Dogs- Cats- My boyfriend-My Day-Makeup-Music or any other groupings you can make. That makes it easier for your visitor to find the topics they are interested in, so they don't have to read every post to find out what they need.
Blog forums can give you a whole new set of ideas to write about. Just put into Google "Dog Breeding Forums" and you will find heaps. Put whatever you want between the brackets.
To get you started you can tell all your family and friends about tour new blog. The more people that visit your blog the more popular it will become.
Put Facebook likes as well as other Social buttons on you blog. This will also help to raise it's popularity.
Watching the news is a great place to get topics to write about as well. Bombs going off car accidents, new people discovered in the Amazon, a new planet sighted, some actor visiting your area, anything like this.
Just because it doesn't interest you, that doesn't mean no one else is.
After you have started writing a bit more regular, you should start making goals for yourself. Writing 10 posts a week, writing 700 word post or some other goal, as it gives you something to keep you going.
If you go to Google, you can find out what is the most popular blog topics. Go and do a bit of research on these topics and include posts on your blog about them. If they have nothing to do with your main subject, that does not matter.
The main thing is to get people to visit your blog. They may come to read that post and find other posts of your interesting too.
They will generally tell other people about your blog or may even link to your blog.
Blogging should be fun. When you start enjoying writing regular posts, each one will be better written than the ones before, that just takes time.
As long as you are happy with the results, that is the main thing.
So all you happy bloggers keep writing and keep challenging yourself.
Hope You Enjoy
