Ever play tag when you were a kid? I sucked at that game. Seriously. I’ve never been able to run with any speed or efficiency, in fact, when I run it’s the kind of thing that is compared to a train wreck. Everyone watches with their hands over their eyes but some fingers moved so they don’t miss anything. I’m short which you would think would lend me speed…no such luck.
I’m terribly shy among people so anytime I played tag, I tried to be the fastest…oh how I tried…but I never succeeded, therefore I was always IT. Always. You would think the game wouldn’t be fun if you didn’t share responsibility of being it…but no, it was always me.
The years of people tagging people have begun again…in the blogosphere. I’ve been tagged by DCR. Because it’s him - the most creative blogger I’ve ever read, I’ll indulge…
The idea here is to mark your five favorite tips with an asterisk and then add one of your own.
2. Be, EXCELLENT to each other.
4. Always reply to your comments.
5. Blog about what you know & love.
6. Don’t use filthy language-buy a dictionary.
7. Blog about something educational.
*8. Be yourself; others will follow.
9. Don’t have too many blogs that will become a chore to maintain.
10. Keep it simple, user-friendly, interesting and organized!
11. Keep the blog simple and sweet!!!
12. Share with others your thoughts and don’t be shy!
13. Never ask for link exchange. Blog hop to increase traffic.
14. Don’t clutter your blog with ads all over the place. IT’S IRRITATING.
*15. Don’t comment for the sake of commenting. Some looked too fake and its a big turn off!
16. Share something interesting and you will gain more readers.
17. Show that we care to all bloggers, treat each other as friends.
*18. Pictures say a million words. Keep them coming!
19. Blogging should be fun or you’ll get tired of it pretty soon.
20. Don’t think people will come to your blog if you’re not willing to pay a visit to them.
21. Everyone loves to read short posting and best, illustrated with a picture.
26. The key to a good article is a good introduction. A joke, a question or a picture does wonders.
28. Write for yourself first. Remember that it takes time, effort, patience…and above all, daring.
32.Don’t be afraid to expose scammers you’d be saving other people time and money!
So who do I tag?
Let’s start with the always insightful Bloggrrl. She always writes great blogs that seem to concur with my thoughts…ironically. I like to think not many people think like I do…but glad that some do!
And I’d like also to tag PureBlogging, David always has great tips to share and often inspires me.
And finally, Derek Semmier from Dad Balance at EMomsAtHome.com, Derek always has great information to share about his family, how he manages and has even figured out how to network on the golf course!
I only linked to fellow bloggers that I actually read and respect their opinions, I look forward to their responses and to see which tips they like best.
