"Review my blog please" - Read this if you plan to start your blog
Posted Jan 18th, 2008 at 12:03 by RohanShenoy
I have seen that on many forums where members ask for a review of their blog.
While there are some really good reasons to review a blog, there are much more reasons not to do it!
Many blogs which I visit from "Review my blog please" threads are shameless examples of pliagrism, copy-pasting, Make money online, etc.
That just annoys me. The niche of blogging which these offenders do not understand is that a blog is superb tool to promote your opinions and skills. A visitor to your blog seeks most importantly YOUR opinion and a small piece of your acumen of skill-and-knowledge. If you are copy-pasting news and giving a link to follow, you probably won't get the visitor hooked on to your blog. Copy-pasting is such a effortless task that you would impose some negative opinion about yourself on your visitor.
Write a blog only if you have value to offer. Don't run a 'latest news service' on your blog. There are too many 'popular' news agencies for that. Don't blog because your friend is blogging or because you want few webpages to contain your name in bold large fonts. God won't give you what you won't deserve.
Bottomline:
Be unique to get tones of popularity and recognition. Trendsetters are viable, trend followers aren't. So set a trend with your blog!
Agree with me? Then let me know.
And yeah, give your inputs too!

I agree! My favorite line in your post is "Trendsetters are viable, trend followers aren't."
When I get 10 minutes, I'm going to delete my blog! I don't have time, it's not interesting AND all it does is attract spammers! See I do agree! |
