One thing listed here that I do need to do much more often is provide sub-headings to split up my post a little bit and make it easier to read. Great tips! Keep'em coming.

I would personally refrain from that on certain topics (for example, if something negative were to happen, I would rather simply speak out the facts instead of adding my opinion as well :/) well, what can I say, this is priceless advice..

I'm wondering about the images thing, though. While I agree that images can really help make a blog post pop, isn't it a violation of copyright to snag someone else's image without their permission?

Darren is good at this. Skellie, while the dog image is of course, cute, I think the point would be better made by finding and using something a bit more relevant to the subject.

The most important for me is the infusion of YOU in your blog. In some instances this may just be the only area where you can differentiate yourself from others who blog about the same thing. In reading in print, often times I'll read b/c I like the writing style- not talking at you but to you. the kind of reading that invokes a response. Whether it's a smile or me talking back to the page (don't act like I'm the only one). In reading on-line I find this holds true too- if I like the personality that comes through in the writing...I'm more inclined to click around and be interested in what more they have to say but then again...you have to be talking about something that interests me too....but definitely talk to me- I want to know who YOU are.

I'm relatively new to the blogosphere and coming from a web design/programming background I find that copywriting is something that doesn't come that natural to me. Hopefully the points raised in this article will help remedy this. Great post with some excellent advice.
