If you’re starting a blog, be careful about using /%category%/%postname%/. Many people suggest this, but using %category% isn’t sensible unless you are very sure that your categories won’t change. If you change them as your blog matures, you break your permalinks. This can be fixed by a plugin as mentioned, but why put yourself through the hassle.

Fortunately, I’ve learned from that mistake and gone for much friendlier URLs in a couple of blogs that I have started since, however, it riles me that I messed it up on my favourite one :(

The other challenge is the content. I am trying to focus more on quality than quantity. But even posting 1 quality article a day is not an easy part time job.

First step is to find what readers want. And then preparing the content itself takes time. I don’t just wanna add text as most blogs, but I wanted to add other media like screen shots and videos to make the posts more interesting.

But after all, it’s an excellent experience to be able to produce content that people actually read and interact with..

I wish I could have done last year what I’ve done in the last month but my decisions wouldn’t have been as good…I may not have found the person to work with who has worked out so well for me and my blog would not have been nearly as well thought out and done as well as it is now. I am still learning, my blog will improve over time. And with great blogs like this one and others that have given me the insights I needed to go forward I am pretty sure this is going to work the way I want and need it to. And, I’m sufficiently hooked! I guess you can consider me blogged-in. And, I’d say I did both 1 and 2…but couldn’t do one without the other. I needed to jump in and make mistakes to understand it better and to do it better or more professionally. Thanks for the great blog and all the great comments. Yep, I’m a new subscriber.

Blogging is the wonderful subject to write on, but its a too competitive niche,there are already 100’s of good blogs being written consistently,And the number of visitors is very small in this niche.Even the most liked blog (yours) in this niche gets only upto 5000 visitors a day.

Will it be a better idea to choose another niche..?? even though we are not so interested in it but we can write effectively on.I think choosing a niche is as important as “strating now”

I fluctuate heavily between design, planning, writing and procrastination currently.

The permalink comment with the migration plugin were very useful. :)

Rather than sitting in dreamweaver all day tweaking, i’m going to pull my finger out and get writing and networking!

Cheers,

PS – Darren you should implement a ‘buy me a beer’ plugin, my only concern would be that you’d be permanently drunk with all the free beers and content might suffer…. nahh! :)

What I mean is, I was looking for YOU to explain to us what YOU did when YOU started YOUR BLOG, that would help us, your readers. The title of this article is, “Starting a Blog – What We Wish We Knew”. You did represent what your readers wished they’s know when they started a blog – but that title, together with the fact that YOU are generally considered to be an A-LIST blogger, prompted me to look for information from you about what YOU did when you started your blog.

I would like to politely suggest that you write a nice article, just for me, MarkBlogger, and for anyone else who may be interested, telling us what you did when you started your blog – as well as what YOU wish you’d known about blogging way back when you started your blog.. Admitting there were things you did not know is what keeps your blog realistic and what helps to strengthen the relationships between you and your readers. I am one of your fans and will be forever. Yes, I do subscribe to this blog, and always will.

One day you’ll have over 100,000 readers.
Great work. I love reading your blog every day.

I guess it comes down to the type of person that you are whether you jump into or plan it all out first.

Thanks from me also for this series!

And you are right, people should act, not just think and plan.

I’ve worked with many small business owners who never leave the planning stage. They have so much thought about their business that they not only waste time starting but they become completely paralyzed and never start at all.

On the other hand, I’ve also worked with other business owners who wanted to start their big ad campaign before even creating a brand or business plan.

The path to success seems to lie somewhere in between… It’s a subject I’m going to try to approach on my website.

Thanks for the great series,

– Mason
