Blog Tips – When you choose the wrong topic

January 5th, 2010 truant No comments

I have launched this blog for nearly 3 months. Perhaps there’re not many readers so far. I know the reasons.

At first I was planning to write about how to make money and I did write about this topic for 1 month. Then I found I have nothing to write about.

For some time, I didn’t update my blog only because of nothing to write. Then I began to talk about twitter skills. It get some traffic for the blog.

According to a survey that writing how to blog get paid most. I also feel this. Look at JohnChonw and Problogger and you will agree with me.

So I decide to write about how to blog – some blog tips. You know, I don’t have much experience. Maybe I am not able to update my blog consistently all the same. Did I choose the wrong topic again?

Even so, I will keep writing about it. Doing anything you need to learn. So as writing blog. Although I don’t have much to talk, I can read, from my google reader. There are a lot of great articles. They can encourage me.

Not till the end, who knows if I chose the wrong topic? :)

And even if I was proved wrong. I can still learn a lot from the process.

January 3rd, 2010 truant 4 comments

I think that when you finished an article it is better to tweet it on twitter with a link back to the post. But, don’t just tweet it. There’re some skills.

1. Instead of telling your followers that you’ve published a new post, you ask a question.

A lot of people who tweet like this: New Post on Soho Online: Blog Tips -How to Use Twitter to Promote Your Blog. Don’t you?

How do you think this : Can Twitter Help to Promote Your Blog Post? link…

2. Choose the right time to post your tweet – when there are lots of people on twitter.

3. Making your tweet ‘ReTweetable’ by not making it too long.

4. Don’t just talk about your post on twitter. Make friends, response to others’ tweets.

You can also do some other things on your twitter account, like make a perfect background for it. Use twitter search to find other bloggers and twitterers who have the same interesting as you and follow them and talk to them.

You agree with me? Or more great ideas?

I find it’s very effective to only by clicking a favion when I want to enter a website I like.

Also when you are surfing the Internet. Couples of tabs were opened by you. You can easily distinguish the tab by favicons.
