I’ve come across sites that just write pretty excellent and funny content. This alone makes me subscribe to the blog’s feed and read it all of the time. It helps when you add that nice touch of sarcasm or snarkiness, or have a fountain of useful information on your blog. It’s all well and good [...]

With all of the blogs out there asking the question, “What are the top five things you like about blogging?” or questions of that sort, it made me think. We’re always saying what we like about blogging, naming off things like, ‘it’s the ability to be a part of the community’, ‘I want to be [...]

I was meandering around the internet today and found that LiveLearnInvest is running a contest. There are no reviews to do or anything like that. The best part is that in putting up a sentence or two, you have entered yourself in a contest to win an iPod shuffle! All you have to do is [...]

A new blog can feel like having a yard sale in the middle of the desert: No one knows you’re there unless your Mom tells them. Is your new blog going to become popular by having all of your friends and relatives tell their friends? I doubt it, unless you are Sanjaya. You need to [...]

It’s always a good idea to have a plan if something goes wrong with your blog. The most important component of your blog is the database that contains all your posts, comments, and users. Can you imagine how you would feel if your blog died in the middle of the night and you didn’t have [...]

Yeah, why not get out there and start a trend of sorts? I was happy to find that I was a SOB (successful outstanding blogger) from Liz Strauss and it’s little pieces of recognition like that, that sometimes keeps us going.
