Blogging Tips

My friend/cousin Robby launched a blog this week.  Being lazy and it's after 10 pm decided to write about blogging since I've been keeping up with blogging this week even though I've been working part time again.  And Robby can read this when he gets time.

I read an interesting post about launching a site using just twitter.  This is pretty interesting, especially the authors use of wordpress etc.  as I am totally screwed up fairly proficient in wordpress and related apps. What did this post tell me?  I need to find tweet meme for my blogger blogs, this one (serious blog), Animals That Give Pause  (animals, duh) and Missouri Books (book reviews).  I already have tweet meme for   Tresa's Blog (my humor blog and personal.  I do need to work on   animalsthatgivepause.com which is basically like the blogger animalsthatgivepause but it's MINE as in no one can take the name or the blog away...think about it.

Second tip about blogging?  Mention your blog everywhere....facebook, link in your other blogs, comment....this will get you a decent amount of readers.

Easiest way to get bloggers?  Have a post that is really like current.  I lucked out with Labradoodles when the president and his family were looking for a dog.  Use a picture everyone wants to see and voila.
You are probably on facebook?  Go with it....get connected with others with your interests.  I've recently started searching out artists and other bichon frise owners.  Of course I have to like the artist and feel comfortable (most are women) before I ask them to be my friend.  The bichon owners?  Most of them I am friends with are in this big social circle of bichon owners.  Of course you could do this with anything.
Go to http://www.problogger.net/ and do what they say.

Go to Twitter, be good and do follow Friday, don't just tweet yourself, follow everyone within reason....and everyone who follows you IF you want a network which is why you are there right?  I'm TCblogger btw on twitter.

I know you are saying she has 19 followers who is she to tell me this?  Ahhhh go see Animals That Give Pause on blogger and check out the number on the bottom right.  Considering I haven't really been a good or prolific blogger not to shabby huh?  Tell you a secret, I gave up on blogging after a few months, went back a couple months later after not writing hardly anything and had almost 10,000, decided I'd start writing again.....
