Targeting Your Blog Theme and Content
By Diana Barnum

«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»



What makes a good blog? Someone writing about something they’re
passionate about, that’s an informal definition of a good blog.
In other words, a good blog is when a blogger presents content
on a specific topic or theme that comes across in basically one
voice to the audience, communicating on a one-on-one level.

Take, for example, a blog centered around the theme of dogs, not
all animals, just dogs. It could present its content in a
friendly pet-owner tone, discussing various resources for pet
owners like healthcare guides, how to make your own dog treats
and dog clothes, etc. Or it could present a more formal tone,
like that of a military trainer with firm commands, sharing
specific articles and tips on an assortment of dog training
techniques.

So how do you know which type of content to choose when
determining the focus of your blog? Here are some basic
guidelines.

Choose Your Focus

Choose a theme that you KNOW, one that you are passionate about
and could write about at length. You’ll want to have plenty of
contacts; individuals, companies, groups and / or associations
in your field of interest. And you’ll want to have plenty of
resources, tips and experience to discuss in your content.

Note: To keep your blog going, hosting plus your time and effort
– all take money to continue (unless you’re wealthy, money and
time aren’t a concern or this is for a hobby or nonprofit
(donation, tithing situation, etc.) So if money is a concern,
don’t forget you’ll need to have a money-making avenue to keep
the blog – and you (your time and efforts) - going. Plan ahead
to make sure you’ll have plenty of affiliate, resale and / or
your own products and services to advertise throughout your blog
to generate income. All items need to coordinate with the theme,
too. For example, don’t try selling, “How to Buy Real Estate”
ebooks on your dog site.


Vary Your Presentation

When presenting your content to your audience, offer variety.
Some people are more focused readers, others are better
listeners, and still others are better ‘watchers’ or for
example, prefer seeing video content instead of text. So if you
only post articles – and lengthy ones, you risk the chance of
alienating some of your possible audience. Write nice, short
articles, sometimes offering a link to a web page with further
details for those who may choose to read more. And insert audio
/ video clips and graphics; banners, affiliate products with an
ad spot, or digital photos that coordinate with the textual
narration, for example, to round out your content presentation.

Show visitors photos of your dog. And let them hear her bark in
audio snippets.

Don’t forget news! People like to keep up with news in the
field, so include some. Add a category and announce upcoming
trade shows, for example.


Pre-date & Update

A neat thing about blogs is that you can pre-date your entries
and work ahead in batches to load content once a week or however
often you’d like. Plus you can go back in time and adjust old
entries, updating ad spots, inserting audio / video links, etc.
So keep your content fresh, posting frequently (daily or at
least a couple times during the week), and round out past
entries with updated content to keep it fresh for new and return
visitors, too.

So write a good blog, targeting your theme and content around
something you’re passionate about, something you KNOW. And spice
up your content with variety.

5.) HOT BIZ*TIP
_____________________

Annoying Request

Don't you just hate it when you have a problem with your computer, and a little window pops up and asks to report the error to Microsoft. To get rid of that pesky request, right-click the My Computer icon on your desktop and choose Properties.

In the System Properties window that appears, go to the Advanced tab and click Error Reporting.

You have a few options. You could Disable error reporting. This will make any crashing program's window simply close itself with no explanation of what happened - not the best move.

You could also click But Notify Me When Critical Errors Occur, but it might be even safer (and less confusing down the road) if you select Enable Error Reporting and Choose Programs to exclude only your commonly crashing program.
