Top 5 tips for new bloggers.

Here are my top 5 tips:


1. Keep it simple
Make sure your blog is both easy to read and easy to understand.

2. Play nicely
Treat others as you would like/expect to be treated and follow appropriate etiquette rules (‘blogiquette’ is a quite a mouthful don’t you think?).

3. Remember your audience
Who only have 24 hours in their day (and, apart from drinking , would probably also like to sleep occasionally). Aim to keep your blogs interesting and relevant.

4. Don’t be shy
Interact! We are all in the same boat as many of us ‘Net 11ers’ have never posted a blog before (me included!) Vote on each other’s quizzes, read profiles and post comments.

5. The Big Bad Wolf?
Remember that (potentially) anyone can read your posts (especially if you become world famous ; ) ...there is a balance between sharing information and retaining a level of privacy you are comfortable with.

Let me know what you think...
