BlogFact

After starting to blog seriously over a month ago, I just want to share my experience as a beginner in blogging.

If you're a beginner it's very hard to get respect from others especially to those people that have their mind on their feet. Yesterday,I got a comment from one of my fellow citizen, a Filipino. Saying this,

"hahahaha very nice offer. Pero pano makakasigurado ang mananalo kung ikaw mismo na nagpasimula ng promo e wala nmng adsense ads s blog mo na nagpapatunay na kaya mo nga magpaapprove ng adsense account? Please answer honestly, HOW on Adsense Account Giveaways!"

 - uwish

You know, I'm not forcing you to believe me, and one thing is, I will not post about something that I'm not sure.  Yes, he's right too on what did he said, but the thing that push me to post this, is the link attached to "uwish" which he used as his name. What's the use of that? For me it's an insult. So if you want to gain respect from others, try to give respect too. I know who you are and I know where site where you from. Insecurity won't make you successful. Just mind your own businesses. 

So, what's your experience/s?

Choosing Your Blog Niche

Before making a blog, there are several pointers that a blogger needs to understand. One of this is choosing your own  niche. This is also what a beginner needs when planning to make his own site. So niche is the keyword or idea to put on your blog. This is what your blog will reflect. For example, you choose the niche sports, so your blog posts should more on sports related. You can also make a blog that has no specific idea, or if you want to blog every different trends everyday, though there's no problem with it, but I recommend to have your specific niche, so you can focus on only one topic.

How to choose a niche that will suit your taste? In choosing, think of what you want like your hobbies or your favorites and any other interests. This is the easiest way to start a blog post. Easy in a way that you already know what your topic is all about and you don't need to search for it first in the internet. 

What to avoid in choosing a niche? Avoid choosing a niche that you don't know, or avoid choosing an idea that you just see in the internet just because the site you saw is successful even though you don't know anything about it. Niche matters, yes it is. But strategy matters more. Remember that every successful site that you will see is not profitable or advantageous because of the keyword it reflects, but it is because of the strategy that the site owner implemented to make his site on the top.

Beginners always think that it might help for increasing traffic and pageviews, but it is a large X. This method ain't help, I admit that I also used this method, because like the reason I mentioned earlier from this post, I thought that it's a big help.

There are also some ways beside automated backlinks that can be the reason why your site will be/ is ban or penalized. These are Cloaking, Hidden text, Doorway page, Keyword stuffing and other Black Hat SEO techniques.
