MISTAKES BLOGGERS MAKE

Blogging only for money;
Bloggers should always keep in mind that, the blogging culture should always come before any other interest. The blogging culture is the ability to be a passionate writer that is able to carry his audience along.

It is while doing this that money comes. So don’t make your sole aim of blogging, money.

Regular updates;
As a blogger, you should always and regularly update your blog. A blog without update is a dead one.

Nobody wants to go to a blog where he gets to read the same old news that was posted there for over 1week. New gists, information and knowledge is what brings you traffic.


Rushing a post;
Never rush a post. When you do that you tend to emerge with a lot of mistakes which isn’t good for your site. You should learn to have a blogging frequency, once your readers can get to understand that, you get to keep them.

Your frequency can be say 2-4 blogs per day or a blog a day or 2 blogs per week. It all depends on you, but try and maintain the flow.

Not been personal;
When people read posts on your blog, they are mostly able to discern between when you're original about your post and when you're faking it. Whatever the type of post you write to your blog, be original;

Even when you get your stories from other articles on the internet. Don’t just download everything to your blog verbatim. Rewrite it in your own language and method that your readers know you for.

Reply to comments;

Whenever your readers leave comments, always reply to the comments as this fosters a relationship with your audience. Infact a reply to the comment on the blog itself is recommended, except the person that made the comment wants some privacy.

Not reaching out to other bloggers;
The most exciting thing about blogging is the fact that bloggers help themselves. It is like a fraternity where you get all the necessary advice and support you need for your blogging business to grow. Learn to reach out to bigger blogs, link to them, and make comments on them. It’s the only smart thing to do.
