How to Blog on Blogger

Check Your Links

Some links go dead - stone cold.

I just found one of mine posted on a number of sites that is no longer in effect because the affiliate program terminated at the begining of the month.

Now I have a job to do tomorrow. I will need to replace those because nothing is as discouraging as clicking a dead-end link (well - some things are, but not in linkdom).

Keep your links fresh and it will reflect care and relevance in your blogging.

Look at the Dream Factory, my main site, to see how I try to integrate the content of my blogs into posts.

Linking and Cross-Linking

One of the great advantages to blogging is that, by using hyperlinks, you can create indexing and organization that flows with your thinking and enables your readers to do more research without having to learn your filing system.

It also enables you to find interesting articles that you might otherwise lose. By linking to thse in your own posts, you create a trail that you can follow back to the source.

The bottom line of blogging is having something to say and saying it. Some considerastions for successful self-expression through blogging include, but are not limited to:

  1. Say it well - clearly and simply with descriptive language.
  2. Say it as briefly as possible.
  3. Say it more than once in different ways if you really want to get the message across.
  4. Say it with words that get attention and traffic.
  5. Say it in an attractive and readable setting.
  6. Say it somewhere that is easy to find - Make sure people can remember or find your site.
