Any avid blogger will tell you that blogging is very hard work, and there have been rare cases where bloggers have admitted to letting blogging disrupt their family life, friendships in the real world, finances and time.

We are not advocating extreme behavior. But sometimes we cant help admire some of the reasons they give – one of the favorites is that blogging is not just about writing or sharing, but the enormous satisfaction one gets being an active participant in exploring human experiences, knowledge, emotions and passions.

Let’s take a trip into time, back to the early hay days of the Internet. You had to pay for everything; set up of the website, hosting, server managed services, email accounts, and promoting your website. Other than that one needed the services of costly website developers to change a line of text, or a simple graphic.

It was little wonder that only companies could afford these exorbitant rates, leaving individuals and many professionals as passive participants, who could view, compare, give feedback, or buy.

Today the individual has the power to be active participants on the Internet with blogs, social bookmarking and social networking becoming commonly used terminology by college students, innovative brands and even large organizations.

Blogging gave the individual the power to create attractive pages of content with pictures, videos, and share it with the world on click of a button.

The present seems secure enough, and thousands of new blogs are being created each day, the numbers of users reading blog are on the rise, bloggers have started making a modest sum for their hard work, and popular blogs are ranking well in search engine results.

But what’s sad is that 90 percent of them will witness a sad demise because of simple things they did not know (not did not do) when they started blogging. Around 8 percent of blogs will never be read, and 1 percent will give up after a year of hard struggle. Well that leaves 1 percent of blogs that will have any hope for survival, let alone success.

Now don’t get discouraged, blogging is most fulfilling, but rather look within to see the reason why you want to blog and about what? Answering those questions honestly could mean the difference between success or the demise of your blog.

In the animal kingdom, it’s the survival of the fittest.

In the blogging world, it’s the most persistent, innovative and passionate bloggers that will survive. It will not be just about what you do, but what you feel, and how you perceive the world you so write about that will make the difference.

Great Tips for blogger survival:

1. Write about something you know, and are passionate about. After all you will not want to write 3-5 times a week on a subject that you are unfamiliar with, or are not passionate about.

2. Add your complete profile with a nice photograph. Readers like to know a little about you.

3. Be persistent in your writing, your readers expect something new each time they visit.

4. It’s not about quantity, but quality. Write clean good copy, use humor and examples with nice visuals.

5. Innovate, don’t give the same content rehashed, do things differently, give your blog a distinct voice.

6. Make your blog customized, attractive and easy to navigate.

7. Add a search to your blog.

8. Allows your readers to interact with your blog (polls, comments, social bookmarking).

9.Your readers are your customer’s; get to know their likes and dislikes, pay attention to their comments and always answer right away.

10. Create links within your blog posts, to your other blog posts.

11. Create links from your blog post to your website (if you have one) and from your website to your blog. Also give links to other external reference sites that might add value to your reader.

12. Build links from other blogs, and popular websites to your blog.

13. Register your blog on blog search engines and blog directories.

14. Announce your blog to the world on press release sites.

15. Submit your blog posts to popular article submission sites. Don’t overdo it.

16. Register your blog feed (Atom/ RSS) with content feed syndicates.

17. Track the visitors on your blog using services like Google Analytics.

18. Monitize your blog with adwords and select affiliates that adds value for your readers.

19. Track and read other blogs in competition with you. What are they doing different?

20. Track the most popular blogs, see what they are doing (how often are they posting, the titles, the quality of content, do they use graphics and videos, do they answer comments etc).

21. Leave interesting comments for other bloggers. They will notice you!

I accidentally came upon a blog the other day and it was written by someone who calls himself “Skaive, the Keeper”. On the blog, there is a post there that reveals secret files of one of the most secretive bloggers organization in the world, if there ever is such a thing, and it is named as “The Hectic Capiznon Bloggers 2009“. The story could be fiction or maybe not.

 

Skaive is one of the select few who knows about the existence of this group and after a long time of silence, keeping in the shadows of this group, he decided that it is time to let the world know that the Hectic Capiznon Bloggers is real and they are finally here. All members of this group are Capizenos and all are very well educated in electronics and computers. Their specialty is blogging and the internet is their playground.

 

Skaive also revealed to his blog readers that the members of the Hectic Capiznon Bloggers wanted a sort of second name for their group. They voted for it and eventually, their leader, Chromedome, gave a name suggestion and it was voted unanimously. They now call themselves the “Dream Team” of Blogging.

 

On the latest post of the Keeper, he has decided it is time for everyone to get to know the members of this group and so he decided to start introducing them all starting with the life story of their leader, Chromedome. His story is quite interesting, with his mother dying after giving birth to him and was then raised by his dad. It would have been hard for him growing up without a mother. It’s a good thing that Skaive, the Keeper kept an eye out on him all his life. His story wasn’t told completely so I am still waiting for it’s continuation. I do hope Skaive could post it out soon. Be sure to check out his blog and get to know the “Hectic Capiznon Bloggers 2009“.

Bloggers Are A Lot Like Pigeons

So I’m sure many of you read the title and thought, “Where is he going to go with this one?”

Okay, I agree it sounds corny, but it is amazing how your mind frames things early on a cold, wet Midwest winter morning walking to the train station (remember, a perfect morning involves staying in my sweats, not leaving the house, working on the computer). Now granted, I do hope most of us are potty trained better, have a more permanent residence and a sharper mind when it comes to avoiding traffic, but stay with me and read on.

Both bloggers and pigeons are:

1. Vastly colorful and individual.
The flock of pigeons that served as my inspiration reminded me of how unique each one was physically. At a glance they may appear similar when you see a flock together as a tapestry, yet, it is remarkable how distinct the markings are to each bird. Just like our blogs; each possesses personal font-image-layout-color preferences, variances and nuances specific to distinguish us.

2. Tend to bobble, hunt and peck.
I don’t know about you, but I feel I resemble a pigeon as I hunt and peck across the keyboard with my head bobbling most the day! It’s crazy too how their always pecking at something they can see on the ground, or think they can see, and I can’t see it! Do we do that?

3. Friendly and respectful.
Pigeons and bloggers are a genuinely friendly, communal group. Even when pigeons are being fed they are respectful to one another as they go in for their share–unlike seagulls. Granted, every now and then, one in the group gets a little “randy” and starts climbing on the other, but we know the motivation behind that behavior. Overall, they get along tremendously.

4. Very vocal.
Ever notice how much cooing goes on-especially when they congregate? I am amazed everyday as I sit with my feed reader at the wealth of intellect and insight shared daily amongst us all! Maybe that’s why pigeons huddle too, because they have so much to share with one another!

5. Free to travel.
Well, bloggers can travel anywhere Wi-Fi to blog, but isn’t that almost the same today as having wings? What a beautiful thing to no longer be bound to a brick and mortar model and be able to blog from the beach (its really funny here in Chicago along lakeshore beaches we have both pigeons and gulls out in the sand!).

6. Helpful.
Fellow worldwide bloggers I have been privileged to “meet” are some of the most amazing people I have ever had any fellowship with. Although most bloggers are willing to lend a hand with information or a project, if they have the time, don’t forget that they might have to refuse or even not reply because of time constraints, heavy workloads, set principles, or a simple distaste with your lack of proper etiquette. You know what I am saying, don’t get so consumed with your own needs that you behave or come across disrespectfully to your fellow bloggers. Even pigeons do get ruffled and fly away.
Let me know what you think!
