Hello My Wonderful Friends, hope you're doing well

The prime focus of blogging is to drive users for micro conversions and later make them followers which might later convert to your customers in the future. In my experience, too many bloggers go into blogging without a well-thought-out plan.

Blogging is primarily for users who visit your site for a particular query they were looking for in search engines. Many bloggers, instead of setting themselves up for success with a clear plan or goal, they go into blogging blind, and end up not necessarily writing for their audience and buyer personas.

What Is The Number #1 Blogging Mistake?

In my view, the number one mistake is deciding to start blogging without the passion for that subject.I’m a computer and Internet freak, so I actually love blogging about these types of topics, and sharing whatever I might learn with my readers. I started blogging because I wanted a place to record my thoughts and feelings, give advice freely, and make sense of this thing called life.

The most difficult part about blogging isn’t the work itself (unless you’re blogging about doing home dental surgery), it’s building an audience. So I would say that it is not important to blog about the things you love, but to love the things you are blogging about. I also think that it sometimes takes a while to figure out why and how you are blogging.

So Why You Decided To Start Blogging?

Take a long, hard look at that computer screen and ask yourself why exactly you started blogging.

1) You started blogging because you had something to say and it was important to you that you were heard.

2) You started blogging to belong, fit in, and be a part of something special.

3) Slow down and take a moment to remember why you started blogging in the first place.

4) In any event, if you hope to be a Writer with a Capital W, don’t neglect blogging.

5) You should not give up easily if you want to be successful in blogging.

The thing is all people who have succeeded in blogging had a unique voice – their own. There’s some really good advice here… Likewise, if you’re blogging to earn revenue, don’t be frustrated when your readers move on when they haven’t heard from you in six weeks.

If you love writing, love your topic, and love building an online business then blogging is a super business for you! That's one piece of the slow blogging puzzle. If you are blogging the right way and you are putting out content you are proud of, then keep it up.

If you love blogging and have a wealth of topics to blog about, then there is no way your blog could fail and surely there is no way your blog could get you into Panda trouble. You don't have to wait until you're 6 months into blogging to figure out how well it's going. You can tell after just a handful of posts.

The immediacy of response, the sense of connecting with people who "get" you, and who make you laugh in return, is the real pull in blogging for me. I have come to the conclusion I cannot give blogging up, it’s worse than trying to give up smoking(I don't smoke BTW). Blogging is part of me now, an intrinsic part to my make up.

It’s important to have an online presence, but blogging is a commitment and a long-term game. Understanding your blogging goals will help you to be a more successful blogger, because you can determine what content you should post based on your goals.

Blogging has become more than just an online outlet to record your personal rants and raves about how much you love leggings or why you wish you’d never signed up for that 7 a.m. Zoom meeting.

Blogging should be a slow jog, not a sprint. By blogging, you’re generating fresh traffic and pulling people towards your site in ways that you can control and nurture. Sure, there are some instances when blogging just doesn't work, or rather the way the blogger is writing their blog doesn't work.

Maybe instead of giving up on blogging, it might be time to rethink your strategy behind the blog. The issue with most people is that they do not understand how blogging is supposed to work. I believe there's a solution to this madness and feel that if your blog is receiving comments, you should use that input for your entire blogging effort.

So instead of going crazy, and when you feel overwhelmed by the possibilities and opportunities and choices that are available in the blogging world, always go with the easiest and simplest choice. Hope this help when you continue your blogging journey.

Stay humble and have a great rest of your weekend. BLOG UNTIL YOU DROP!!
