Is Blogging a Waste of Time
Is Blogging a Waste of Time
There are times when I wonder and question what I personally get out of blogging here.
Should I be doing something which is
more productive or
makes me more money.
Is easier to do?
Well! Is it a Waste of My Time?
So I sit and ponder on what I have got out of blogging here for the past year. Here is my take on it:
I have developed my skills in writing for my readers.
I have learnt how to position keywords to get a improve SEO of the article.
I have learnt to modify my language to suit the subject.
I have learnt to focus on what I am doing.
I have learnt to write quicker.
I have learnt how to organise my writing with a good plan.
I have learnt how to improve by reading other member’s responses.
I have a better idea what people really want to read about, (and that has surprised me.)
I have learnt how to make lists like this one.
The advice direct and indirect from other members has been invaluable in honing skills needed to write articles and reviews on my web sites.
Blogging is part of the learning process and puts me in touch with a lot of other people with similar aims to mine.
Is Blogging a Waste of Time?
Hell, No!
I am grateful for the opportunity to read and practice. The feedback and advice is invaluable and I am still learning.
To anyone who thinks they can’t do it. Yes! You can. I have written some tips and others have as well.
To anyone who thinks it is a waste of time. I think you are missing out on a really useful part of the training here.
Thank You
Thanks to all who read my blogs and for all the feedback. Please keep it coming, there is still a lot for me to learn.

In my opinion, definitely NOT a waste of time.
It's actually the best part! :-)
I just love it!
Thanks for the post.
Thank you Elaine.
I have grown to really enjoy it myself.
I did not start out that way. In the beginning, I wondered if there was much point.
Get a web-site built and get traffic to it.
Customers like to see some interaction and discussion on the site = blogging.
Blogging is also known as your CONTENT. If your website has no content or blogging of one kind or another, then it's just a page full of affiliate links and advertisements. No reason to land there, really.
It seems you have already figured that it is NOT a waste of time to blog! You must blog the content of your website. (That is why it is called a BLOG).
You have also learned a few other things that have been listed.
With out you blogging, you will not make any money! (THAT is certainly not a waste of time.)
Well....I can't imagine building an online presence or a website without the "Blogging" part of things. I mean....isn't it about attracting people and helping people?
I agree with you, it's not a waste of time, it's necessary.
Thanks Wayne.
I wrote that because there are a few people who seem to think it is not productive.
I am with you on this one.
I just don't see any other way around it if you're going to have a successful online business. How do you attract traffic to your site if you don't blog about stuff?
NOPE! Not a waste of time.

Blogging is great. With every post, there is improvement in your writing, and basically how you communicate with your audience, so keep blogging.
