To blog or not to blog? This is a question that one must ask
oneself before you start blogging, because if you go through step 1, 2, and 3,
it is tooooo late. You think about blogging, you find a name for your blog, a
template for your weblog and you write your first post (just to test the waters
to see if you really want to do this). The moment you press the publish button,
everything changes within that second.
Suddenly the question is not anymore: "Do I want
to blog?" It is now about posting quality content and how to improve my
blog. How to make it a blog that others would like to read, want to participate
in and to subscribe to? How do I share this wonderful treasure chest that I
have opened with others, because it has bedazzled you so much that you cannot
keep it to yourself?
Then you realise you need help and lots of it, but
where to look? Of course, other blogs and bloggers are the answers. But will
they help you? To your utmost surprise you find that this is a community of
helpfulness and there is a wealth of information available.
Blogging opens up a new world, not only for the reader
but for the blogger as well. In the beginning you worry about anything and everything,
but then you begin to know enough to be a danger to yourself, and then you come
to the stage that …….. yes when things come together and you enjoy this
wonderful journey of blogging.
