There are many similarities between building a better blog and renovating a house
31 Days to Build a Better Blog is an eBook thousands of bloggers are reading and following together in an effort to help each other become better bloggers. Written by Darren Rowse of Problogger, the workbook is divided into 31 easy-to-follow tasks that not only have you doing something to your blog, but teaches you the importance each task and provides links to further reading.
For myself, I always believe that lessons can be learned from the success and failures of not only myself, but others as well. Personally, I believe my previous attempts at blogging (for the most part) have been failures because I lacked the knowledge of all the elements involved to make a blog great. It isn’t just good writing, or a domain name that make your blog stand out; there are many other areas that form the foundation for a blog to succeed. Instead of continuing to experiment in blogging to see what worked and what didn’t, I decided to buy 31 Days to Build a better Blog and follow the lessons outlined by Rowse for a few reasons:
- To see the potential benefit this program can offer other would-be bloggers.
- To gain insight about what experts in the field of blogging can offer.
- To give my blog the best opportunity possible for it to grow and succeed.
