Use blog to build credibility
Lots of friends are like me, host their own blog on wordpress. Actually, thanks to Great Fire Wall, more and more people, not only the geeks, including some people konw nothing about wordpress began to buy their own domain and set their own blog by using wordpress. The problem is that sometimes they did not know what to write about. Personally, I set up my own blog: daibin.info for nearly 2 years. Look what I got:Page Rank2, nearly 200 pageviews everyday. I wrote something about wordpress,google,toastmasters; but it seems that this blog neither gave me the chance to launch my name-brand nor change my life.
I started to ask myself: what do I want to get from my blog?
I just read a article about blog in May 2009 Toastmaster® Magazine.I found some valuable advices about blogging, I want to share this with my blog readers. This article gave me a chance to rethink my blog.
The article said “establishing a blog to build your credibility”
(Original from Penny Sansevieri)
How can we use blog to build our credibility?
- Become a filter: become a expert of your area
- use your blog to review books or products in your industry
- interview other professionals and turn your blog into a resource
- blog on current trends. keeping your finger on the pulse of what’s going on will show that you are in touch with your market.
I think the key argument of this advice is “Be Professional!”
People like to listen to or have a tendency to follow to these professional guys, so we can set the major goal of your blog as a place to publicize your professionalism. Just find what you really like and keep on writing blogs about that area.
