Better blogging part 2

Author: J. Angelo Racoma Category: Archives, blogs Tags: blogs Views: 1278

Kudos to Keith of To-Done for coming up with a follow-up (part 2, if you may) to his writeup on being a more productive blogger (which I earlier cited).


Highlights:


  • Tell a story

  • Break up long posts into shorter ones

  • Use lists

  • Maximize the use of drafts

  • Quote liberally

  • Respond to feedback

  • Don’t obsess on stats


Keith also posts on how you can use blogs and blogging to be more productive (outside of the blogging activity itself):


  • Learn from blogging

  • Use your blog to sort out problems

  • Use your blog as a knowledge repository

  • Use your blog to test ideas


It’s quite evident that it’s still the content and interactivity that

can make or break a blog.  The technical aspects such as design and

the bells-and-whistles may be secondary.  But if you could come up

with great content and a visually-appealing formatting, then you’ve got

what it takes to be a great blogger!
