I think personally that blogging is a very good marketing tool but still very hard to create a long-lasting good blog.

@Denise - it's an interesting insight - how about the trend in Asia?

@Sian - yes, I also hire someone to write for me - not as a ghost writer, but often as him/herself.

@Warren - Cheer! I do have long tail keywords in mind whenever I write :)

Hi there,

A great article about how to go about blogging and why you should blog.

One thing that I would like to say is that blogging takes time - it takes time to write, so a content plan or schedule should be created. It's not an easy answer to getting more traffic to your site.

Another point I'd add to your article is the cultural differences on commenting between different nations. In the US, a lot of people will read and comment; while in Europe, people will read but are less likely to comment. It is changing but it often leads to frustration for new bloggers. They can't understand why there is little commenting when they've spent so much time researching, writing and editing a blog.

And I saw this on bizsugar.com which is a great site to expand your blog readership!

Take care,

Denise

Great post Ivan. As someone that believes everyone has a blog in them you have pointed out how easy it can be. And if someone struggles with writing or computer skills then hire someone to do it - the price you have to pay will be covered by the exposure you receive. Thanks for sharing on Bizsugar.com

Nice post with good rationale. Add to this posting (like you do) on sites like BizSugar.com to popularize your writings and draw people to you more frequently. Additionally, the effort spent to research and utilize long-tail key words into your posts will be beneficial. Thanks for posting on bizsugar.com
