Tps for Bloging 3 of 3

11th The relationships are the key –

Relationship of blogs was, first and foremost, in part because of the way it has allowed me (a shy boy), with other stakeholders in the same things for me. From the outset, I am in the enjoyment of nature relational blogs, but also how it has allowed me, in my retirement introverted, from time to time.

How do I see the things that the success for me in my blog, most of them had the essential part of another person (or more) or with me or with my partner. Last my partnership with Andy six digits with the blogs and Jeremy, Duncan and Shai b5media but the relationships go far beyond that and are numerous and varied. I leave aside time each day to seek and build relationships with key bloggers, I would like with a certain type – it is incredible to see how these paid links in many unexpected.
12th Defining the borders

Recommendations BoundariesOne first blog that I wrote was on the Borders blog. The post itself was naive enough written at the time – as I think I’m not really sure I knew what I’m talking about – it was a nice theory in the period. More recently, I just see that the point of which, I citais in the post were extremely valuable and wise.

Borders are very important to a number of levels.

Firstly, they are at a level of security and for your own wellbeing. I personally know of recent events. Editors of the public may be their own risks before. Working in advance what information you and never on himself, your data and your family and adheres to these limits.

Secondly, it is also recommended to a readership of niches and Level definition. Go to change what you write and not in relation to issues that too often and run a risk disillusioning your readership. Although the variety in the topic and the voice of the sting in your blog that you are also a certain coherence to complete.
13th Not reading your own press release

Press recently an interview with Elizabeth Taylor who asked whether she has read much of what people write about him in the media. There has not been answered – she has not listened or whatever ready, everything is written or said on his good or bad. His statement about the reasons why was (paraphrased)

“When you hear the good things that people say that you begin to believe they only. If you are watching the bad things that people say you believe that you simply ‘

Although I do not want to go as far as Elizabeth Taylor and say not all read what is written to you (after every conversation and cooperation with the other, this blog is about d) I would like to keep the Blogger, which is easy to believe others about you.

It is easy to be courteous to large head, when people on how much you and your blogs are the point where you start, a dullard, and think you are the Messiah, but on the other side of the coin is so easy are cynical and depressed, and resentment when they attack you. A part of competence, a good blogger, in the time that this ability to know when you take into account what the others say, and the moment you leave. It is important to hear the praise and criticism of others, but try to keep perspective or it could cause your loss.
14th Be careful with hype

HypeControversy, the sensations, Big Rants claims and all are very useful for determining the bloggers. Many a new blog found himself in the limelight of the headlights (either by design or accident), according to a place where the blogger has a feeling with one (or more) of these elements.

I have no problem with this kind of bodies themselves from time to time, but I would like to inform that it is very difficult, a blog based solely on these elements. Blog readers are very unstable, bouquet and read the message comes, which creates a feeling but, unless they have something that is a real value to your blog over time they will probably not be long haul.

By all means this tactic for your attention (but the skin, because the creation of a major unrest can cause a reaction), but you want your blog to something else, to inform him of an impression sustainability.

Also take into account the history of the “boy who cried wolf.” Hyped jobs even once or twice, but they tend to lose their effect over time, if you work hard at their expense.
15th Get A Life

A LifeI remind you once again, someone tells me that “nobody will never be out of bed to death and hope that they had more time to work.” I remember a sign of the head and the claim sounds. You look at the time I was a lazy slob, do not have the benefit of hard work and never has a lot of time in which everything is done.

Of course, these days I actually work from my benefit and the temptation is too much time to do this. I love the blogs for his creativity, the relationships and good pay, it allows me to do things to others and I could quite easily much more time to do this. I spend so much time in my company.

But I’ve also learned that when I leave the rest of your life is in the seams dissolve. Not only that, but the quality of work suffers produce, that I have 16 hours before the computers and improved, if I sleep more than 5 hours and with real people or in one of my hobbies (go figure). Although I like it, blogs are still there, and tomorrow I have much more balanced approach, what I have done.
16th To make mistakes

MistakesIt do not think good things or if you made a mistake, but when I go back to the last year or the time I blundered, that the opportunities have often poured. The key is to make mistakes, what follows, and can be seen as an opportunity to improve what you’re doing, and the best of everything from him.

Elbert Hubbard, he writes, when he wrote – “The biggest mistake you in life is constantly afraid of you.”

Learning to see how the mistakes of the possibilities.
17th Be Yourself

Jhon Jhon 4One-of-the temptation, a blog is, more time trying to imitate the other bloggers that you have your own voice and style. While there are many lessons learned from other blogs, there’s a lot to say, developing an identity blogs of your choice.

There are a number of reasons to come to mind:

1st Transparency – the readers to a bouquet of flowers to enter and quickly see if you’re not a real
2nd Sustainability – it is difficult to have the letter in a voice and a personality, not your. Be yourself and you will last much longer.
3rd Coherence – the readers of a blog hours on the sense of ownership of a blog. If you chop and change your writing to imitate the other and ask you disillusioning people in a blog for what it is (drives). Be yourself and you have more chances to be (I am not saying monotonous – you can be creative and surprising – especially in your own style and you are on the right side).

18th There are no rules

Rules such as these lists are not always start with a period like this, not everything said what before – but that’s not the point at this point (you can make a point of a point?).

All of these things is (for me), but the thing I love in the blogs is that there is a new technology, and there are very few things you can not do or should not try.

The boundaries, to experiment with the template that you try new tools and techniques and have a high level is. The worst thing you can do really is a mistake – and we all know that they rock!

Tips for Bloging 2 of 3

DiamondsThis goes almost without saying, but I can say that not less. For each question key bloggers, should assist in the creation, it is about the idea that the value of their blog readers give. How do I see the coming year, I was this question in relation to some of my own blogs. It is simply something altbacken and verification of the value you add, is an important element for the things fresh.

The value can be many things relating to entertainment, education, community, information, business, etc. Without it, you’re not suited to the people back a blog, or in conjunction with participation at the time.
6th A focus on a niche

Public-1I remember, after about 6 months blog, a discussion with my readers (I only had a blog at this time) whether I continue to write a blog, was generally very topic, or if I start something new Vicinity. I have a poll, and they disagree, what I do. I would like at this time that I have with new blogs, but fear the loss of some readers, I decided, plow with a blog that covered a wide range of topics and more and more frustrated, more and more readers with an interest shared with me , But were not connected to the other things that I was written.

At a niche approach, where I blog more about topics in my blog was went to another device, and it was probably one of the most important moments in my company.

Learn more about the benefits of niche blog.
7th Diversification

The diversity 1This connection with my niche in the blogs, but goes far beyond just have several blogs on the various slots. This is really the old recommendations are not all his eggs in the same basket.

Although there is a real sense that your entire energy on an excellent blog, there are some risks in this approach.

So many blogs is outside the control of bloggers and there are many problems to be a strategy of blog ends in the event of a disaster (including search engine re-indexing, piracy, the loss of data, the murder of competition, the issue of obsolete Etc.). All good financial planner advises not to invest in a type of investment, but the risk to distribute – I recommend the same thing with the blogs.

Diversification is not only a question of many blogs. It also speaks of the study a variety of revenue sources. ie if all your AdSense income, it might be useful in the search for another ad, membership programs, counseling, etc.
8th Scatter not too thin car

Thin-1 take the points on my hard work, niches and the diversification and the extreme danger is in development, many blogs to be enforced, it is very remarkable was to develop a readership and profile.

The balance is important to diversify the point where it does not lower the value you offer the readers. This is for bloggers to bloggers because of numerous factors, the available time, interests, personality, so theme chosen for some of you, which means two blogs, for others, this means 20 or more.
9th A backup plan

Backup PlanI’ve repeatedly written to the e-mails I get people regularly tell me that they leave their jobs to a blogger on a full time basis without much thought, how they pay their bills a year or three, take it, to their blogs to pay adequate salaries.

The moral of this story is that it does not take long and in the time you need a backup plan and a kind way to help you make the transition to the company’s blog. Very few bloggers are able to go quickly into full-time – you might get a different job (I had many other jobs for more than 2 years) or any other form of income in breath hold for a couple years. In fact, the fact that some bloggers work from their ass for a few years and still does not show anything for it to end. So, be responsible and see ProBlogging the incredible potential, but as something that is not accompanied by guarantees.

I recommend a backup of income, during the transition from blogs and on the back of your initiative, a plan for the backup if something goes wrong. I developed a range of other abilities and interests in the course of the year simply because I do not know how long the blogging as an all-day income. Although I hope that it work for me, I know that I am a little bit different options on hand in the track if they were all in the form of a pear.
10th Write the light on your feet

Light-ON-foot 2One the things that I love, a solo entrepreneur is that I have a company that is flexible enough to explore the possibilities very quickly that they come from. When a wave of luck in your work occur after, you must be able to position you to surf the wave. If you are too shy or have a model that is too rigid, you may have the opportunity, through them.

I was naps a few times on this species, but also have a couple of times, where I spent the possibilities and the fruit is harvested. Of course I’m not saying should be careful throwing out the window, but to try to build something, the controls and that will not choke the life by the opportunities that come with your courses.

Tips for Blogging Part 1 0f 3

During the trip were many tasks, milestones and celebrations today, I thought, a little thought and a list of things that I want someone to me and told me in the first few days.

Here is my Top 18 of the lessons learned from 3 years of my blog. Write your own “lessons” list, and we know in the comments below. If you have this list, like maybe you subscribe to my stand to hold on more jobs than in this blog.:
1st Lucky

LuckI’m increasingly aware that despite the many hours of hard work that I have my business that many other works are also difficult and much more talented that I’m not the success that I have the chance to have. Although I do not believe that the probability is the most important part in my own history, I am convinced that the combination with other things that I speak hereafter, it was a real importance.

The chance that I had along the way, especially in encounters in the right people at the right time (on many occasions), announces the discovery of the systems has been good to work on my blog, blogs quite successfully by accident , The largest blogs are links that lead to a snowball effect of the arrival links incidentally is the right choice of partner for various projects. I could write several thousand words about the happiness that I had, but I will not bore with details, except to say that I’m a happy boy.

The key, which I’ve found that the chance is with him, to do everything, and last example of luck as long as possible. So if you had the good fortune to strike benefit, but also to ask “how can I get from my happiness?”
2nd Work Hard

Hard course of the work of wisdom, which says: ‘You create your own luck “is a grain of truth in it. Gary Player said -” The most difficult that I practice, I get the chance ”

I am firmly convinced that for the success, you must be willing to work hard. While there are many marketing people “just money” on the Internet, I’m still on a production method that the money is not at least one element of the work for them.

Success in many areas of life from the discipline and hard work. Get your body in shape, have good relations, “the study, etc. all have a certain degree of commitment and work. Work is not at all (I have a lot of hard work, bloggers who are not yet successful), but it is an element which, I believe, is essential.

If you places you never before, you must be willing to do things that you never previously done so. That means sometimes leaving a zone of comfort and knuckling for some hard work.
3rd Use the power of exponential growth

TmI’m results not sure that this position is the right words to describe, but I can not to others who describe how the blog has the ability to snowball effect. Perhaps that is a “tipping point” thing, but I like the last three years in blog traffic, profit, the profile and opportunities, I see that the first 18 months were very slow. The growth was definitively from month to month, but because the numbers were so small that it does not really feel that I, no matter where.

The wonderful thing about the exponential growth is, if you need it to the long term this is a very powerful force. I am more in the survey, I’m just this month, and that 27% of bloggers who have responded, are $ 10 or less than a month from Adsense and I know that so little noise.

In reality, it is not much, but it is more than 2 years before I starting blogs.

Here is a calculation I held in my mind in the first few days.

What if $ 10 per month by 20% per month over the course of a year, you can benefit from $ 89.16 per month to an end. Of course, that small sounds for a year of work and I am sure that many bloggers give at this point, but it allows further.

If the fee has increased by 20% per month for a further period of 12 months and you see the power of exponential growth with a rate of $ 794.96 per month. They do this for another year and the figure of $ 7088.01 per month.

If these figures with a value of 30% growth per month and the number is after 12 months of $ 232.98 per month, after two years of his $ 5428.00 and after three years, is $ 126,462 per month! You get the picture. Well, I will not promise you 30% growth per month for three years straight, but as I have written before, the power of exponential growth in conjunction with zeal for work and the chance is possible – c ‘is my story. I see each item I write as an investment in the future and something that has the potential to earn money for me, not only today but in the long term.
4th Distinguish

42970000 04Eede87F7 M-1Part the “chance” that I had that I started blogging three years ago and not three weeks ago.

The blogosphere has become in many ways – for some of the best (the technology and tools of today much more advanced) and others for the worst. The disadvantage of starting now, is that for each theme seems there are already many blogs – the Web is still a human discover that the personal edition. It was also a company more competitive at certain levels and in some segments of some of the cooperative spirit of blogs began to fade, because people build their empires.

All this means that if you like, a blog that is a success in the fugue, you must take into account how the blog itself from all others there. Although not all blog needs to be a “success of the Autonomy Statute for you live from blogs (20 succeeds quite well blogs can also unbelievable that 1 a), even at a lower level blogs need to find ways to stand out from the crowd.
5th A value
