The Business of Blogging

The San Diego North Chamber of Commerce is hosting a number of workshops and “The Business of Blogging” isBusiness.jpg one of the workshops being offered.

What About Clients? own Dan Hull gave the presentation and provided some of the following information:

5 Rules

  1. Write to match business goals
  2. Only the “right” people at your business should blog (i.E., grownups who can write).
  3. Do short posts (with compelling titles).
  4. Post regularly
  5. Be provocative, and brave

And with 70 million blogs worldwide and 120,000 new blogs created each day, following those 5 rules will help you have a better chance of being noticed and seeing results.

    What a great, simple post on blogging. I like how you numbered your points and kept it short and sweet. That makes it easy to read when you are scanning lots of blogs. We can all learn from this one. Thanks.

    Thanks for your comment Nancy. I thought since #3 said to do short post, I better follow suit.
