SEO Tips

You blog I blog. Okay, all of us are the same ( well almost! ). We use readers, subscribe, draft, post, publish, link edit and blog. Yet, some are popular, some are Z-listers, some A list, some in-between, some spam some gurus, some are bald ( No not him! ) while some are superman like :) . Why the differences?

There are two ways of doing it buddy. 1) Hard Work and 2)Smart work

If you ..
- Spent hours together searching for topics on the net to blog about
- Post articles regularly and try to get online everyday to post articles
- Do not write anything negative about any blog/product
- Create original articles
- Spent most of the time looking at your statistics and not commenting on other blogs

You probably fall into the first category a hard working blogger.

But if you ..
- are impulsive and find topics just like that on any topic
- draft articles and publish it with time stamp edited
- write about your disagreements and honest opinion about products or other blogs
- rather than creating completely original articles, get inspired from others posts (while crediting them for it)
- spent more time commenting on other blogs and not your statistics

You’d fall in to the second category - Smart blogger.

I’m unsure which one is better. Sometimes, i prefer the smarties are like John Chow, but when they have a problem with Google, i think the hard working types are. Whatever it is - being consistent and connecting to your audience is the name of the game. Just that there are two ways of doing it. Which one are you and are you comfortable that way?

I don’t know which one I belong to. I mostly belong to the first category. Only thing is that I comment on other blogs. I rarely blog relating to other posts in the blogosphere.

So you are a bit of both I guess Ram.
:) You are indeed a great “commenter” - I’ve seen you on quite many of the blogs.

Keep up the spirits !
Cheers!

Mani,
Thanks for your kind words. I like commenting on blogs. I’m a firm believer that quality comments can get more visitors to our blog than a simple comment with a link at the end. :)
