Why Some Start to Blog
It’s interesting to hear from other bloggers as to why they started to blog. There are many reasons why someone may start to blog. Would you like to learn some reasons as to why some people start to blog?

Many bloggers view developing links as a painfully slow process. Yes, it does take time and although it may go slow, you can speed up the process by applying a little bit of wisdom. The wisdom you apply really isn’t any different than if you were looking for a date!
Let’s think about that for a moment. If you were looking for a date you would do a bit of research and take a look at what the potential date may have to offer, and what you would have in common. That’s the first lesson here and an easy one to deal with.
Have you overlooked an important priority on your “things to do” list for blogging? It’s certainly easy to do as you probably already know. Today I discovered something that I thought I had done for my blog months ago, only to discover I had not! It must have been one of those days when I instead took a rabbit trail and got sidetracked!
In that I forgot to do this, I’m sure there are some of you who may have forgotten to do this important step! Did you remember to add your blog to Google’s Blog Search Engine? As I mentioned, months ago I intended to do this, yet I discovered today I had not! I did it for my other blogs, but of all blogs to miss I missed submitting this one!
To make it convenient for you I’ve added the link to Google’s Blog Search Engine in our SEO BlogMaster Tools list, which I’ve been updating from time to time. Just follow the link to the post and you will see the link for the Google Blog Search Engine.
In the beginning, there was a wanna-be-blogger. Many who have the desire to create a blog or to build a business through blogging become overwhelmed on how or where to even begin. There are many steps to take while on the road to blogging, and some have made their path easier by taking a step-by-step approach.
One such blogger is one of our new members over at our blogging community, Link & Blog Challenge, but she had an additional challenge, which many other bloggers are not faced with - her health. If you are a person with health challenges you may discover that blogging is a great way to provide you with some extra income while you are at home working your way down the road to recovery.
Most would jump at the opportunity to get free blog advertising. If you are a blogger who wants to take advantage of getting something for zero dollars, then you came to the right place! The opportunity for free blog advertising is right underneath your nose! “Where?” you may be asking as you are salivating over the idea of getting free blog advertising!
Do you think I should share this goldmine of free blog advertising with you? I have nothing to lose, but before I do, let’s talk about some expensive blog advertising so you will have a greater amount of appreciation for how valuable the free blog advertising really is!
It seems that most people ask “how much” they can make from blogging rather than asking “if” they can make money from blogging. There are quite a few pie-in-the-sky pipe dream promoters promising a silver lined path to the golden goose from blogging. I think most people who begin to blog do so with dollar signs reflecting from their pupils, and their tongue salivating over how they’ll be the ultimate blogging cash cow in the near future.
I thought I would share this question a gal asked in a forum, and what my reply was. She asked;
My blog ranks in Google’s first page of results for two keywords, which aren’t included in my meta tags. They’re just merely words I’ve used in two separate posts before, and alone don’t reflect much of what my blog is all about.
This was my reply to her question.
