One of the common questions asked around the internet is whether now is a good time to start a blog and if so, how do you build and expand it? Wayne Sutton wrote about the topic yesterday referencing a conversation we had at the beginning of the year. How do blogs and social media sites [...]
I review lots of sites. One thing that baffles me: why do bloggers feel the need to show they have a small amount of readers? I’m talking about blogs that want to be an authority in their niche, have advertising on their site…in other words, it is not a personal blog and the blog leans [...]
