Much like with forums, we also see a lot of new blogs open up and again, whilst some of them stay around and we see them grow, other times we find that some tend to close not long after opening.

What tips would you give someone who is new to owning a blog?

Learn from popular blogs. Check out how they post articles. Do they have a schedule? You can analyse how they write, too, and use this in planning the way that you build your blog. Also, it is important to note that not every start will have instant success. So, be patient in all you do.

Do you want to blog because you are passionate about writing, or do you want to create a blog in the hope of making money? If your answer is the former, you can start blogging, if your answer is later, do not blog. Blogging requires multiple skills, it is not just about writing but also website management, therefore, build relevant skills.

I would always advise anyone who is interested in starting a new blog to make sure that his blog niche is something that he or she have passion for. This is the only way he will not get burnt out from adding contents consistently on the blog. A blog is all about contents and without it, there is no way you are going to have traffic and activity on that your blog.

Aim for 3 to 5 articles a week. This sounds like a lot but it will pad search engines. If possible, do daily posting but what you want to remember is if you have an email list, you will want to keep this down to just 2 or 3 posts per week.

Always having articles on your blog is a good start. Writing 3 to 5 articles weekly will make those visiting your blogs to see where they can post, and that is a key part that should be considered. Visitors want to see that the blog owner is bringing new contents where they can comment.

Whenever you have decided to start a blog, you must make it a priority to add articles on your platform almost everyday. If it is possible, it have to be more than one article on daily basis. This is what is going to help to drive traffic and activity to your blog, otherwise there is no way you're going to have any major breakthrough with that blog project.
