I have a flair for writing and thus enjoy blogging. Based on positive feedback on a few ideas I have shared in the past, I have decided to start a series of blog posts about how you can blog more effectively, if you are already a bloger or intend to be one. It does not matter what your motives for blogging are. You can still do it more effectively. You can gain more following, make more friends, increase/improve your professional & social network, make more money, grasp new ideas etc
I have been writing online since 2004 and have been blogging actively on this particular blog since 2005. Being a website developer, I know how to make a website look better and be more effective. I will thus share some skills and experience to help you be a better blogger than you are already, in a personal and simple manner that would make things easy to grasp for even the newest initiate.
Whilst I hold no magic wand to improving your blog rankings, I am confident that when you apply the simple techniques I am sharing, you would do much better. Chances are that you know some of what I am sharing already and are already implementing them; feel free to join the conversation in such cases and share your experience or even disagree with me where it is necessary to do so.
I will publish new posts for this series every Wednesday starting from today and would update this post with the new topics as they are published.
You are welcome to ask me questions in the comments area.
This series is for those who want to shine at blogging, only. Those in the pursuit of excellence who are never satisfied with mediocrity. To such bloggers, I dedicate this blog series.

how should i ask for back links from blogs that are more popular than mine but in the same niche?? there are a few that i have been reading and commenting for some time and am wondering how to ask them to include my blog on their blog rolls without angering them… help a green blogger
Kenyan Tykoon, you do not ask people for links. You earn it by posting high-quality blog posts. Over time, you will get noticed and people would voluntarily link to your posts, or include your blog in their blogroll.
Hi Oluniyi,
You blogging about blogging, finally! 🙂 Please share with us in this series why you prefer wordpress over blogger. I am still planning my big move – I’ll let you know when I need assistance. Thanks!
I would surely share my views on why I believe WordPress is not only better than blogger.com, but is the best blogging platform out there today.
Pls go ahead! I cant wait to learn.
