5 Things You Should Know Before Starting A Blog

This is one of the reasons why most people give up at an early stage on blogging. I’d recommend you read NSB article on Quick Reasons Why People Starts A Blog then leave your comment on the post to get better clarification.
    2. Be A Writer – You might not be so that good at start but as time goes on and likewise with practice, you will. Writing is very important because the major part of BLOGGING IS WRITING as thats what seperates a blog from a standalone website.

    4. Be Careful of Trickery Method – Before you starts your blog, you might have heard almost everything about short-cut. Shortcut to SEO, Short-cut to getting traffic, Short-cut to getting adsense and so on. Am not saying it won’t work, it MIGHT but THESE THINGS usually had an adverse effect.For example, if you tried to use Google SEO methods that are against the search engine policy, the result might prove positive at first but would DELIST your blog from Search Engines if later detected. There are also recent cases of google Adsense that were banned simply because they acquire it through devious means.
