So I typed in the url at my browser and sit back on my fake leather chair zipping my espresso-like morning coffee, as time passed by when I noticed that my blog wasn't loading I got closer to the screen and the message from hell appeared “ 500 server error “ , I typed in my second blog’s url and the same happened , I typed in the third one and the same happened, what the $%·& , my life is over.

Blogging – Everyone Else Is Doing It – So Why Can’t I

April 21, 2010 By Leave a Comment
bloggermind101

The Internet and the software which has been developed to run on it have made it extremely easy for anyone to publish content and have it accessible to millions of people. In effect, consumers have been given a voice to air their views to a massive audience. Something which before the Internet, they could never have done. In recent years one of the biggest examples of this has been the massive growth of weblogs (blogs), wiki's, podcasts, vlogs and moblogs - together they form what is loosely known as social media; the ability for anyone to publish almost any content without the typical costs and hindrances associated with traditional media. This new publishing freedom has resulted in an explosion of new content. However the term social media, or citizen journalism as it is sometimes called, may be a misnomer as many companies can do it as well! What is Blogging? Blogging is currently the most common form of social media, in fact as of October 2006, about 100 000 … [Read more...]

How To Be A Blogging Idol Instead Of An Idle Blogger

April 10, 2010 By Leave a Comment
BloggyIcon

To be successful at Search Engine Optimization, it's important that you continually test out new theories and ideas. Before I use new SEO techniques on a client's website, I always test them on one of my own. In order to better understand the application of SEO to blogs, I decided to implement the following experiment: I would create a blog for each American Idol contestant. Using a pseudonym, I would blog each candidate until they got booted off the show. Once the final 12 candidates were decided, I would step up my posting pace. Being that this was an SEO project, I didn't aim to provide any valuable insights into the candidates...I only planned to "blurb" news articles that mentioned each contestant. The goal at the end of the project (besides gaining useful knowledge) was to have 1-2 "sustainable" blogs in place, while generating massive traffic the week of the final show. Several weeks into the project, I discovered two things: The Bo Bice Blog received considerably more … [Read more...]

By the end of 2004 blogs had established themselves as a key part of online culture. "Blog readership shoots up 58% in 2004 6 million Americans get news and information fed to them through RSS aggregators But 62% of online Americans do not know what a blog is." - Pew Internet & American Life Project Tip #1 - How and Where Should I Start? You should begin your blog with a free blog hosting service such as Blogger (http://www.blogger.com), or other similar free services such as JournalHome.com, LiveJournal.com or Blog-City.com. The learning curve for using such free services allow you to spend more on developing your content rather than worrying about the advanced areas of scripting, hosting, or programming.
