Well first of all you must set up a routine to collate material to provide your inspiration for your posts and then you gotta keep up the posting momentum. Some experts say that you should post three times a day in the first few weeks or even months and some say you should post aWell we have all heard about Blogs by now and if you are serious about developing your business you should have set up several in different niches, not because the more Blogs you have the more you will earn, although that could be a possibility given time.

Quite the contrary; it is a lot of hard work maintaining the flow of content to your Blogs but who said Life (or Blogging )was going to be an easy ride? It is however, probably the least costly way of creating an image for yourself as an expert in your field and is guaranteed to bring results in the way of increased traffic to your web site in a few months. O.K that’s a pretty bold statement coming from a newbie blogger, incidentally when does one cease to be a Newbie? Now there’s an interesting thought! Here’s another thought…what if you don’t have a web site yet? Phew that’s another day’s work …did I actually say a day? I really meant a year!

The message is coming through loud and clear…and that is get Blogging right away because the sooner you start, the sooner you will see some results and the quicker you will leave Newbie status firmly in the past. The first faltering steps on the blog road can be interesting to say the least. You spend so much time creating your content aka posts, that you tend to forget that even when you have been at it for a week or two, posting every day, nobody probably has even seen your work at this stage! Or have they?

That’s the next hurdle which is very reminiscent of the New Web Site owner who sits back with great sighs of relief at having the creation on-line until he or she realises that what has just been achieved is actually the easy part and the real work now has to begin in earnest.

at what has just been achieved is actually the easy part and the real work now has to begin in earnest. What is the real work? Well first of all you must set up a routine to collate material to provide your inspiration for your posts and then you gotta keep up the posting momentum. Some experts say that you should post three times a day in the first few weeks or even months and some say you should post at least three times a week. Either way you should decide on a number and stick to it. Easier said than done!

One statement that I came across in the first couple of weeks, and bear in mind the euphoria still had a long life ahead of it yet, was on the lines of “don’t expect to see any real traffic for six months”. Now with all the publicity and mass hysteria surrounding Blogs you could perhaps have been forgiven for thinking that you would become celebrated overnight. Six months… Wow… that’s a lifetime on the Internet with things changing so rapidly. Why isn’t it all going to happen tomorrow?

Well, just like most things in life, time plays a major role in events and even with all the technology at our disposal we have to put a great deal of effort in before we see a return. No such thing as a free Blog, sorry Lunch! That’s a topic that deserves some separate comments outside of this article. We left the first of all, several paragraphs back, so it’s time for second of all which is finding some, or rather many …as many as possible, Directories to list your Blog. What a chore but necessary. Here is where I reward the reader for getting this far and not switching off long ago.

Wait for it…are you surfing/reading/ snoozing comfortably? Just discovered a wonderful resource that will save hours and hours of research but will require hours and hours of submissions and it’s the incredibly named RSS Top 55 which actually boasts 160 RSS sites and Blog Directories.
