Blogging may have plenty of reasons to be written, for example, :
1. You want to establish yourself on internet and get people to know about who you are, what you like, etc. In shot a personal blog. That’s a wonderful way for making new friends!
2. You have an expertise in something and want to spread a little knowledge among others. A public opinion is what you’ll get in exchange. If you know what your audience likes then you know where to make profits from.
If you own a product or offer a service, then blog is the best of keeping your customers updated and gathering their suggestions.
A personal blog- A kind of blog which generally means an online diary! A place for your profile and things unrelated to any relevant topic.

Alexa Rank! What’s the trick?

There are quite a lot of prestigious ranks on Internet, desired by a webmaster. These ranks include Page Rank, Techronati Rank(for bloggers), etc. And on of them is the Alexa Rank?

Alexa.com is a service provided by amazon.com to provide webmasters with info about where they stand in the world. A good Alexa Ranks means you receive a good portion of Internet traffic!

What’s the range for a good rank??

Well, I suppose if you could into top 200,000, you’ll be pretty well off.

On the topic:

I have been observing my site’s Alexa Rank for past so many months and have come to the following conclusions for the fluctuations that take place.

From my experience:

I get almost 85% of traffic from India at the moment! Just a month ago my site’s daily reached to its max. of some thing around 78,xxx. After that time, my traffic stats kept increasing but still my Alexa rank showed decrement. I was baffled.

My observation on this:

I observed that the percentage of my traffic from India was falling and traffic from other countries was increasing. My US rank jumped on from somewhere 1,xxx,xxx to somewhere around 5xx,xxx.

What affected my Alexa rank?

The sudden shift in the traffic sources led to a temporary decrement in my rank. My weekly rank reached as low as 6xx,xxx.

Now that my rank has started to increase again, I am feeling happy.

Now a few tricks which will help you increase your Alexa rank:

1. You should have heard of forums, that’s the place to advertise. Just place a link in your signature and welcome people to pay a visit.

2. Put your site on review in as many places, e.g., forums, social networks,etc. Public opinion is what which helps you learn what they want. And actually this will help you drive a lot of traffic to your site too.

3. Ask your family and friends to visit and leave a line, comment, sign up, etc. on your site. Remember family and friends are a great asset when it comes to increasing traffic.

4. Love your site and feel good about it! Be confident.

Remember, a lots of hard work doesn’t pay if not done cleverly.

……….Plz, be my friend and leave a line…………. lol :P

Inspire to blog!

Everything needs some inspiration, from somewhere, to be done! The same thing is with blogging. You have to get a little inspiration from somewhere to continue blogging otherwise it becomes a tedious job. Well, I too get bored sometimes and don’t update my blog from days or weeks and I end up in tens of drafts saved still waiting to be completed and published.

Best way to keep yourself ready to blog is by keeping yourself updated about the happenings on internet!! This way you’ll always be able to find some material for a good post!! Reading others’ blogs is also a good way to rejuvenate your knowledge. A good blogger should never lack ideas and should try to blog regularly.

Well, I will not suggest writing long posts instead keep them filled with valuable stuff. 200-400 words should be fine. A post longer than this is a hard time for both the reader and the blogger. First few lines do leave an impression and they should be carefully written.

You should let yours ideas to flow. You should be able to pen down your ideas on a piece of paper/blog. Let me tell, this is the most difficult thing. This happens with me too often, and sometimes I feel like having a plugin which could copy paste the article from my brain to the blog. Unfortunately, you have to do this on your own, no such plugin yet!!

Hope my post inspired to start blogging! btw, What do you do to get inspired to blog?? Please do consider sharing.

How to blog without ideas??

The biggest question which comes across a blogger is what to do when you have nothing to blog? Well, most of the bloggers encounter the this problem unless they do not copy articles from others’ blogs or run some sort of news bulletin. Below I’ll discuss how to find such ideas which will help you blog!
My previous post was about on how to get inspiration when you are to blog. Well, the ideas apply here too. An inspired blogger is who writes wonders. An uninspired blogger is the one who needs inspiration for blogging.:P
The first thing as inscribed in the previous post, keep trying to renew your knowledge. It refreshes your mind and a clear mind knows whats the best to be done/ written . Reading others’ blogs, posting and reading forums, going through news, current affairs. You need to be updated if you wanna blog without any obstacles in mind. You surely don’t want to sit blank when you trying to blog.
Now if you really out of ideas, write about how to blog. Well, that’s what I actually usually end up doing other than saving hundreds of drafts and then deleting them. Don’t think hard, or you’ll get stressed, stay clam. When relaxed try to think again. As said earlier don’t hard but don’t stop thinking either. Try to increase your thinking potential. Expand your imagination to a never ending extent.
Google is your best friend. I always keep telling this to everyone. Always keep googling something or the other about your topic. Every time you type in the keywords your intention should be to learn something new. When you always have something new, you will never be out of ideas.
Keep blogging! Keep trying to blog even when you are out of ideas or are confused with so many ideas stuck in your mind. This helps you gain experience and will certainly help you out next time when you to try to blog. Well, blogging is the best way to learn about blogging. xD Practice makes a man perfect.
Never even think of copying! It doesn’t matter how much you like an article, no copy and paste, please. Well, people tend to do this thing and this tends to lead you to your blog’s end. Originality is what is appreciated. An 100-words original article is a billion times better than a 1000 words article copied from some where.
While writing a weblog post, be true about what you blog. Never try to make up things. You should have a genuine opinion about the damn topic. Writing about anything or everything really doesn’t work. Never go off topic. Everything should be related to your website’s theme. Never go blah! blah! until its your personal blog and it is about you!
Writing about your experiences helps. Public likes reading about people’s experience. Even I do. And that was from my experience.
At last I’ll say that never even think of quitting. That makes you a damn loser!!And if you are thinking of a come back. Ah! That’s gonna be difficult.
What’s your opinion about this?? What do you do when you’re out of ideas. Please do consider sharing.
