There are so many talented authors with so much more experience, why would anyone want to read something I've written on a blog. How can I offer anything of value to readers?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25573541.post-6485773169629216122007-06-22T06:37:00.000-06:002007-06-22T06:37:00.000-06:00I use blogger and probably 90% of the blogs I read...I use blogger and probably 90% of the blogs I read are on blogger. They are easy to set up, maintain and reply to. I've had my blog for about 14 months, I now post 2-3 times a week for the very reasons you pointed out, LDSP, when people come to your page and find the old post over and over, they move on to someone who posts more consistently.<BR/><BR/>Also, to market or promote your blog, go to other blogs and make comments, many people will see your profile there and come back. LDS women can also list their blog with www.ldswomenblogs.blogspot.com, I've found some really fun blogs on there and as for time, it doesn't take very long to write up a couple paragraphs, then comments come to your inbox so you monitor that way.<BR/><BR/>I have my blog separate from my website, but with a link on both to refer to the other. I update my blog far more often than I do my website, but many people find my blog through my website presence.<BR/><BR/>Great post, LDSP, blogging can be yet one more very useful tool in the author's bag of tricks.<BR/><BR/>My big weakness: Fully proofreading my posts before I publish them. I'll spell check, but scan through and think 'good enough' only to find a half dozen typos a few days later.beto11Josihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10615874450489497826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25573541.post-26131602065035479392007-06-21T22:01:00.000-06:002007-06-21T22:01:00.000-06:00Do you think it's better to have a separate blog f...Do you think it's better to have a separate blog from your website or blog within your website? Or does it matter? Is there an advantage to blogging with others (i.e. Writers in Heels, Six LDS Writers and a Frog, etc.).<BR/><BR/>I'm fascinated that so many people can find time to not only write books/articles/stories, but also find the time to write consistently interesting and helpful blogs (makes it hard for me to get back to my house cleaning and prying those boogers off the walls).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
