“He who fails to plan, plans to fail.” — Winston Churchill
If only we could say some magic words, or use a special potion, blogging would be a piece of cake. But sadly, it’s not that easy. Some specialists believe there are well over a billion blogs out there, so your chances of hitting it big, might be better, playing the lottery. However, if you are like me. . . you are still interested in blogging in spite of these odds. Here are a few questions that you should consider before committing:
- What elements make a blog successful?
- Who is your audience?
- What is your goal?
- How often will you post?
- Is somebody already writing your topic?
- Content, design, and a sound marketing plan will contribute to my blogs success.
- My primary targets are writers and artists.
- My goal is to exercise my writing skills and develop discipline.
- Originally, I wanted to have four content-rich posts per week, I am re-thinking that.
- There are many people writing about similar things, but none of them are me.
