Top 5 tips for new bloggers

So, you have started your very first blog, but the questions looms;

What will I post in my blog?

Here are five top tips for blogging newbies:

1. Write about something that interests you.
2. Feel free to write controversial material, but avoid discriminatory or racist material.
3. Make sure the spelling and grammar is correct! Avoid "text speak" abbreviations, and use full words, sentences and correct punctuation.
4. Blogs can be a lot more than just text, try experiment with rich media experiences. Try embedding a video from YouTube or uploading photos from your digital camera, or camera phone.
5. Blog often! The more your blog is updated, the more often people will come back to your blog. It does't have to be poetry or award winning prose everytime, but the more the blog the better you will get. The more hits you will get too!

Take these tips as a guide only, everyone will have their own point of view. Take what works for you and modify what doesn't.

Oh, and the last lesson? Have Fun!!!

Happy blogging :-)
