How to Blog

There is a huge difference between blogging and starting a blog, in this post I talk about actually blogging.

Now that you have your blog made its time to start blogging. The first step is to figure out what to blog about... which is easier said than done. Blog about something you enjoy and something you won't get tired of. You'll be writing about this subject everyday or so until you quit or make it big. It also helps to be well versed in the subject. What I usually do is have a main focal point and then writing a little about other stuff in between so I don't get bored.



The most successful bloggers write about their niche and write about it well. Blogs like mine without a niche usually don't do well because search engines don't really know what the hell to do with us. Writing a niche-less site pretty much entails you writing about various things you enjoy and hoping its done well enough that you'll get traffic.
Try to set aside a few hours a day to just write, a new blog needs content and needs to be updated regularly. you can write gigantic posts or small ones, people have sort attention spans and a long post better be amazing and entertaining so that readers don't loose interest. Short posts follow the same rule, they have to be entertaining but they also have to be informative otherwise they seem like they lack credibility.

Another good thing to keep in mind is that it's all up to you and there is no single grand rule and that what works for others may not work for you. You should always be thinking of ways to get your blog to stand out from others and how to make it better. This includes coming back to posts and making them better or fixing mistakes or generally just updating them.
