10 Blogging Tips

Briefly, some tips:

  1. Write to be helpful.
  2. Be brief.
  3. Tell a story.
  4. Connect others, if appropriate.
  5. Share. Often.
  6. Don’t overthink it. (It’s a blog, not a dissertation.)
  7. But be thoughtful.
  8. Don’t be mean.
  9. Publish often enough to build a relationship.
  10. But be mindful of your audience’s time.

What else would you say? What if you were telling someone at Disney or Starbucks or the Woman’s Society for Advanced Cancer Research about blogging? Share your blogging tips?

    #6 is my favorite. I would also add (although super cheesy) Tip #11: Have fun. I’m a big believer that if you enjoy what you’re writing and have fun doing it, then people will enjoy reading it. It just comes through.
