Every person start a blog, initially go through growing pains in order to be a better blogger. I remember, when I first started out the3dtechnologies, I made so many mistakes.
Whether you are a beginner bloggers, below I’ve listed some of common mistakes blogger do, in no particular order, thus, if you want to continue the list, let a comments below:
1. Not have a own domain - Many bloggers use free blog host or get their own hosted blog. Unfortunatly, this method don’ let you to have control of your blog. I reccomend you have purchased a web hosting and host your own domain. Sure, there are some growing pains, but it’s the right decision if you are serious about developing it in the long term… Read my recent article on how to get a cheap hosting service.
2. Create mediocre headlines – People spend time and effort to create good content, but often they using bad title onto it.
3. Ads overpower the content – In my view, too many Ads on your content make lose your loyal readership.
4. Irregular Posting – I know it’s hard to keep updated a blog, but you need to try to establish a regular rhythm of posting, is no necessary to post every day.
5. People give up too early – This is the common mistake bloggers make. According to Calson Analytics Blogging studies, from 60% to 80% of bloggers abandon within one month, and only few blogs are regularly update. Never, NEVER give up too early.
6. What is the topic? – Whether you look at the most successful blogs out there, they have a common trait. They have a well defined topic/niche (or they target a certain demographic).
7. Choosing a bad Topic – Whether you don’t want that your topic runs out, you need to pick a topic that allows you to regularly write for years.
8. Writing only for search engines - If you just write for search engines and not for humans your blog will dead soon because there are no real people.
9. Last but not least – you must use only the knowledge you have – if you try to race ahead beyond your capability then you’ll have more chance to make a lot of mistake.
