📣Notes #8:Everything I've learned in 10 years of Blogging

Do you write a blog?

Everything I've learned in 10 years of Blogging

• No one has time to read your article, write the first lines like they're a TLDR.

• The design of your site is irrelevant.

• To start out you don't need any software.

• Define your audience.

• Figure out where your audience is.

• For SEO don't write short articles (>2000 words)

• One well researched article is better than a lot of mediocre content

• Spend half of the time writing, half promoting.

• Spend 50% of the writing time actually writing, the rest tweaking, reading and illustrating. Details are important.

• Spill all your secrets. Don't be worried about the fact that you'll run out of content, you won't.

• There are no rules, slowly craft your unique style.

• Go back in your old posts and link them to newer ones.

• Start a Newsletter.

• Do what everyone else is afraid to do.

• Reach out to people asking for things or offering tips.
