I love blogging, maybe its the fact I over think it. well regardless to all these random thoughts I sat down this morning to a cup of coffee and my lap top with little or no idea of what to blog about!
These simple steps I am sharing really helped me BREAK out of the funk today so enjoy!
Blogger!
• Read your reader’s blogs. I think you’ll really be amazed by some of the talented and successful people who read your blog over time. I know I am. You guys keep me on my toes.
• Print out your worst posts. Read them, ask yourself why they flopped. Why they got so few comments or “retweets”. I know this hurts, but it helps an awful lot.
• Reread your best posts. I know this gets a little tedious but I like to reread my best posts to see what I got right. Because I’m always trying to one-up myself.
• Delete your duds. Every once in a while you’ll write a post that’s just embarassing to you later on. Don’t be afraid to delete a post if you think it goes against your personal brand. We all make mistakes.
• Review your headlines. Are you repeating yourself? Sometimes we get so caught up with work… we lose aim. I know I’m as guilty of this as anyone.
• Stay on top of plug-ins. There’s a lot of wordpress plug-ins that can make a big difference on your blog. The tweetmeme “retweet” button. Akismet for spam.
And most important of all…
I strive to make one improvement… just one… to my blogging every single day. I think that’s solid advice for any blogger. At the end of the month you’ll feel real good about yourself.
