"Top 5 tips for new bloggers"

1.Organisation
All entries in a Blog should be organised (archived) well so viewers can follow your blog easily.

2.Simplicity
Keeping a blog should be kept simple. I believe the entries in your blog should be straight to the point without too much text. No one wants to read a long essay....

3.Appearance
The blog should look appealing. Having the right design(background), photographs and text. If it is a personal journal for family and friends, it should show your personality (colourful etc), but if it's for clients or professional purpose, it should look more formal, portraying the right message.

4.Updating
Blogs should be updated regularly. If you want people to follow your blog, you need to post new information so they will want to continue and follow reading new things. If you don't update, then people will stop returning and you could potentially loose a follower. On the other hand, I also believe that if you excessively post new information it will make it hard for the followers to keep up, so keeping entries to a moderate level is vital.

5.Networking
If your blog is not only for friends and family, but for you to network your business, you should start following other blogs so you can extend your network. Following someone else's blog is another source of advertisement!
