On Why to blog by Rex Hammock

Category: Technology — by Amit Chaudhary @ 2:03 pm

From Rex Hammock’s Top 7 recommendations about blogging — and not blogging

let me suggest something to would-be bloggers out there:

  • If you believe the size of your audience is the measure of success, don’t blog.
  • If you think how many people link to your site is the measure of success, don’t blog.
  • Blog because you want to have a voice in a conversation. If you run a business, blog because one day, I promise, you will be glad you have a place to respond when the conversation is about you.
  • Blog because there are two or three people who actually matter in your life or work, or who share your passion for a particular topic.
  • Blog because once or twice a day, you see an article or joke or something that you forward by email to a group of people. (Hint: stop emailing them, post the links to a blog and tell your friends the address of your blog.)
