Beginning to Blog

Our readings this week talked about blogging and we are all starting to get into the routine of being bloggers, so I thought I would dive into the topic a little more and find some tips for beginning bloggers.

This article Beginning Blogger Tips gives some tips for new bloggers.  Here are some of the highlights:

1. Define your blogging goal
2. Know your audience
3. Be consistent
4. Be persistent
5. Be inviting
6. Be visible
7. Take risks
8. Ask for help
9. Keep learning
10. Be yourself

I think these are some simple and straight-forward tips that can help new bloggers like me.  In particular, I believe it's important to define the goal of blogging, stay active and keep your blog frequent, be visible and share your blog on social media outlets to build an audience, and keep learning and staying current on new tools and technology.
