Top 5 Blogging Tips Of 2009

Apart from being a great amount of fun many people are now starting to see how profitable blogging can be be and to that end we have put together our top 5 blogging tips of 2009.

Make it stick (make them stick to you like glue)

Your main priority is to make your visitors want to keep returning to your blog. You need to make it worth their while to keep returning and you do that by providing top class content which will set you apart from the rest of the blogs in your niche. It is also important that you make blog posts
on a regular basis and you will soon find that you will have a stream of regular visitors.

Maximise revenue

There are many ways to maximise revenue from your blog and two of the most profitable are adsense and affiliate programmes. With affiliate programmes you must make sure that the product or service that you are promoting is in the same niche as your blog. I know it sound obvious but I have seen blogs on gardening advertising gambling products. As far as adsense is concerned the correct advertisements show up automatically so you don't need to worry about that.

Don't Give Up

Sometimes you will find that people who haven't made money within a couple of weeks decide that it can't be working and decide to give up. You really don't want to go down this road because it is often the case that success is just around the corner especially in the case of earning money from your blog. It may take a little time for your blog to be indexed but once you start making money from it you won't be able to stop, even if you wanted to.

Don't Let Your Blog Die

This is similar to simply giving up but don't let your blog die. If you stop posting to it,the search engines and your visitors will soon lose interest and all of the hard work you have put into your blog when you first started will all go to waste. Try and make it a routine when you make your posts and you will soon find that you are not giving it a second thought.

Personality

Try and let your personality shine through when you are making your blog posts. If you would like to add a little humour then go ahead and do so. When your visitors are reading your blog entries they don't want to see that it has been written by a robot. They like to see that they are in contact with a real person and you will find that they will be far more responsive to any offers that you may be promoting.
