Good monging Tony and Darren. I”m a budding blogger so thanks for the tips. Tony, you’ve done a great job coming off the bench for the main man. I’m definitely going to add your blog (s) to my favorites. In my learning, help me with something you mentioned in your tips list above. How “exactly” do you “seed” posts?

Thanks

Enjoyed reading this post. Great food for thought.

I’m in an interesting position on this, because, as of this last Friday, I’m no longer employed, so the biggest distraction that I’ve had is now gone. Retiring at age 55, I’ve been hoping to augment my pension and investments with some on-line income. I made a little over $2700 US in 2006, which more than pays my internet and computing bills. With more time to work at it, maybe it’ll help keep me from having to become a “migrant nuclear worker.”

Tony thanks for a great series of articles, but when do you consider a blog “successful”. I’m running a blog with 500,000 visitors a month and I’m trapped on moving up to the coveted million mark. Any tips or ideas from you or the other pro blogger crowd?

Michael, I love your blog! But I can’t be arsed commenting on Blogger sites, such a rigmarole!

I think Metallica would do a better cover version of Hound Dog than Robbie because Robbie would probably try and emulate Elvis (and fail), whereas Metallica would give it their own flavour = a more interesting cover version.

The master of cover versions, in my opinion, is Mark Kozelek.

Last lessons on blogging? Is it that absolute? Is that it?

Like most things in life: you never stop learning. There is no ‘last lesson’, unless you die.

[...] I try to stick to writing my own content for this blog, but this recent post at Problogger.net is definately worth sharing. These tips for bloggers are all pretty much common sense, but sometimes we need common sense guidelines set up for us in a step by step manner to collect our thoughts. This post is a great starting point for any new blogger or an old blogger who’s struggling to create a name and brand for himself. Here’s an excerpt (and one of my favorite points): 5. Of course its a Marathon — I just wanted to remind you. Even if you’re a lousy writer and spend almost NO time on marketing, if you’re willing to stick through it, you’ll discover something interesting. After a while, your competitors will start dropping out. The fact is that out of the tens of thousands of blogs that are started every day, only a tiny fraction will exsit after a few weeks, and less after a few months, and even less after a year. People get discouraged. There are other priorities in their lives. Life moves on. All are perfectly legitimate. But, it should be some solace to the seriously interested among you, because by just surviving, you’ll have outlasted a significant portion of your competition. [...]

Rory,

If it does nothing else BUT kick you in the proverbial BUTT I’d be really happy.

Thanks for all of your kind words (here and behind the scenes).
Have a great one … and who knows — maybe I’ll be back at PB one day ;)

Cheers

Pat,

Glad to hear I made a difference — and your analogy about a writer’s papers being in a drawer being dead prose is dead on! :D

Best of luck with blognanny!
