Well look no further, I am here to help. First let me say this is 100% free you don't have to buy anything (although I will recommend some products to give you that extra edge, but they are by no means needed) you won't have to pay me, no strings attached, just some valuable info to help you become the best.
Your ticket to fame!
OK OK, so blogging isn't exactly going to get you that famous, but it will spread you name around, give you something to do in your spare time and maybe even make some cash. Blogging is fun and is a hobby of many people, it is a way to share your thoughts, get them acknowledged and for some people it is their main source of income yes that's right, some people make their living off blogging using simple services such as squidoo's lens making which can make you money off royalties ect. or using other things like google adwords. Blogging sounds good doesn't it?
But where do I start?
Well let me tell you, you are very close to starting now, go to a blog creation site such as Squidoo or Blogger and follow the easy steps to creating your page. But wait! It is best to go out with a game plan, you need a topic to write about, something that you love and have a passion for or a topic that you know lots about, basically something you will find easy writing about, you will enjoy writing about and most importantly something you think someone will read! There's no point writing about something that no one will have interest in as you will have no visitors to your blog and it will be rendered completely useless and a waste of time.So go now and start brainstorming ideas of different topics you can write about and eliminate the topics you won't enjoy, other people wont enjoy and the topics that you will find hard to write.
So I have my blogs topic and my blog page now what?
Now you have to write content, there are a few tips that you will need to know in order to write good content;
Make it sound like you enjoy writing about it, if it sounds like you don't enjoy the topic why would someone who is new to the topic decide they like the topic or why would someone who already knows and loves the topic want to read some half hearted attempt from someone that probably doesn't care for their passion?
Use proper grammar and punctuation, I can't stress this enough, without proper grammar and punctuation your writing will have no flow making it hard to read and understand, and why would someone want to read that?
Don't write too little, however don't write too much, if your article is too small it obviously doesn't have enough content and it wont take peoples interest, equally an article that is more of a thesis than a fun read will repel readers. Just be sensible with your posts size.
And just have fun! blogging is predominately a fun pass time, don't make it a chore or your writing will suffer.
Some last tips on creating the actual blogThese are some tips that you should take to heart and put to practise;
Update regularly. This could be daily weekly, whatever, however don't overdo it you shouldn't really make a habit of posting more than once a day on the other hand you shouldn't post too little as any followers you had will just lose interest in you.
Refrain from using inappropriate and offensive language, remember your readers have feelings and beliefs unless you warn so don't do it and in my opinion don't do it at all or you will suffer with a lack of blog visitors.
Run competitions and events. Ok I understand how when running a non-profit or new blog competitions and give always may not be an option but when it becomes an option this will gain allot more readers as well as make sure your current readers stay put.
And once again have fun!
