Useless Directories 2007-12-23 02:23:00 While I am searching for some directories where I could submit my blogs, I came across with Dave X. Smith’s site. According to him, he has been experimenting with the most popular blog directories and rating services for more than six months.

Why Bloggers should show their own pictures on blogs they own 2007-12-21 17:37:00 Showing of self-picture on blogs is not really a requirement for blog owners. There are bloggers who chose not to do so, while some of them choose to have it included in the About Me section. They may have different reasons for doing such, but the following reasons are the most important ones why blog owners should show their own pictures on blog they own:1.0 It is a validation of their ownership of the blog. This means that no one can deny that the true owner of that blog is the one who has his or her picture on it. If there will be future problems about ownership, he can easily prove that he is the real owner of the blog and its content.2.0 Viewers can identify the blog as certified real and existing site as owned by humans and not computer generated only. A blog without the picture of the owner can be doubtful in terms of authenticity and intention. It is like an ID card without a picture.3.0 A blog with the owner’s own picture has a greater chance of being trusted than those with ...

How To Reply On Comments 2007-12-20 16:48:00 Comments, whether good or bad means that the reader took time to give their views on your posts. It also means that your posts have been reviewed carefully and the reader found it interesting to comment on. Therefore it is your responsibility to reply, and such replies are so important to readers. Moreover, here are some useful tips:1.0 If the comment looks sarcastic, do not do the same. Be calm while explaining your side, and pacify him. If he continues to, then you can block his future comments. However, do not forget to thank him; he viewed your site anyway.2.0 If the comment is out of topic or asking a non-related issue, reply still. Answer his question then lead him to a proper forum where he can get more discussions. But do not be offensive; he might just do not know where to ask.3.0 If the comment is to correct your mistake, be humble. Say sorry and thank him for the advice he gave you instead of ignoring it. Then post a reply to correct your mistake. But you may do some researc ...

Common Unethical lines of Bloggers 2007-12-20 04:27:00 Blogging is a good form of communication, and anyone who can read and write can be a blogger. This is the chance of everybody to enjoy the freedom of communication. But sometimes, this freedom is being used improperly. Although it may not look intentional, there are lines that are unethical in nature. Here are some of them:1.0 Let’s exchange links. You can usually see this as thread title in forums, especially in the Introduction or off-topic discussion. Actually, there is nothing wrong with asking anybody to link to your site. But if you are to link other site just because you want your site to be linked with others, that becomes unethical. I believe that if someone likes your site, he will provide a link to your site whether you ask it or not, and vice versa.2.0 Fave me and I’ll fave you. This is somehow the same as asking for an exchange link, except that it is usually applicable for Technorati. Again, if a site has good content, it will be a favorite by many, and you do not eve ...

Blogging Tips from the original Blogger 2007-12-19 18:04:00 According to Wikipedia, it was Jorn Barger who coined the word “weblog” on Dec. 17, 1997. Now, after 10 years of blogging he is back to share his Top 10 Blogging Tips.Below are some of my favorites:1.0 You can certainly include links to your original thoughts, posted elsewhere … but if you have more original posts than links, you probably need to learn some humility.2.0 If you spend a little time searching before you post, you can probably find your idea well articulated elsewhere already.3.0 Being truly yourself is always hipper than suppressing a link just because it's not trendy enough. Your readers need to get to know you.4.0 You can always improve on the author's own page title, when describing a link. (At least make sure your description is full enough that readers will recognize any pages they've already visited, without having to visit them again.)And for me, the best tip in which I believe bloggers must always do:5.0 Credit the source that led you to it, so your reade ...

My first list of Directories 2007-12-14 11:28:00 Since some directories have already approved my blogs, I would like to share them with you batch by batch, together with some details about them. Here it goes without any specific order:Article Highlight: The owner goes by the name of Article Specialist. He is an Indonesian and he is my 2nd mentor in blogging.

These are all true, and nobody denies that. However, to get there needs a lot of good qualities and here are some of them:1.0 Humility: A successful problogger posts inspiring comments on other blogs rather than insulting words.

Delve into the mind of a Human Blogger 2007-12-12 03:53:00 I would like to reserve this post to acknowledge a young Indian girl named Meghna who has been reading my parenting blog regularly, and even share it to her parents. For all you know, she has excellent talent in writing poems and articles; and shares her views as a student, daughter and human.

Imagining John Lennon 2007-12-08 10:25:00 Today, December 8, 2007 (here in the Philippines) marked the 27th death anniversary of a simple but talented man named John Winston Lennon, the co-founder of The Beatles that the world has admired for their great looks, songs and trendsetting styles. As a Beatle, he can compose a song within an hour or two while resting in a hotel after a tiring concert.After ten years of one of the greatest bands of all time, John Lennon decided to call it quits and went solo, after which he made mature and experimental songs.As an artist, he engaged himself in peace advocacy by living a white life, wearing white clothes, using white piano and the like. Although he somehow became an anti-religion humanist, he made inspirational songs like “Give Peace a Chance”.But on December 8, 1980, Mark David Chapman ended Lennon’s life by shooting him five times, four of which hit Lennon and was declared DOA (death on arrival) at Roosevelt Hospital. The murder took place in the streets of New York, USA aroun ...

An Article About a Specialist 2007-12-04 10:28:00 During my first month of blogging, I met a problogger through MyBlogLog, by the name of Article Specialist. Just like any blogger, he invited me to visit his site so I did. Since he has many useful blogging tips that I need, I keep visiting his site. As I go along, I noticed some of his unique characteristics that truly made him a specialist, in which I want to share them with you:1.0 He has a showcase of his very informative blogs that is updated daily except on Sundays. When I asked him if he still has enough time to sleep, I was surprised that he sleeps more hours than I do. I guess Sundays are for his family, his church obligation or maybe a simple day-off.2.0 He collects great blogging tips from other sites and posts them with his own words, without forgetting to give credit to the originator, and he calls some of them as mentor. You will notice the link.3.0 He includes parenting tips, family tips and other personal development related topics in his blog, which means he is also co ...

How to post a Good Post 2007-12-02 04:12:00 You have a bright idea about something and you cannot help but post it, but it is not fun as you might think. A good post is good if and only if it was posted good. Your good post will be the ugliest post ever if nobody would like to read it even if he sees it. So, you might want to consider these things before posting:1.0 Use an attractive and relevant title: There are posts that have almost the same in content in other blogs, but if the title is attractive, readers will take time to read it again. The title just like the ads, must call the attention of the visitors. However, it must also be relevant because if it is not, then you will loose that visitor. First impression lasts.2.0 Check for grammatical and spelling errors: No matter how good you speak English, writing is different from speaking. Errors also occur if you are excited to post, so better be calm. I use MS WORD as a scratch for making a post, which informs me when there is something wrong. This also serves as my original ...
