After 3 years of blogging inconsistently, I've come to realize that there are a couple of reasons that lead to the quick demise of my blogs. These are the top 3 reasons why:
1. The lack of readers visiting my blog. I thought I had quality content, but why aren't there any readers after 3 months?
2. The lack of resources to guide me on how to improve my blog outlook. Even if there are, some are just too complicated to understand, not to mentioned implementing them. If improving your blog is that easy, there would be not be so many sites out there offering help and advice.
3. The internet is a cruel world. I've made my shares of mistakes and got demotivated when I realize I was forever blacklisted, especially if it involves abusing advertising. Yes I admit I was naive when I started blogging. The classic scenario of having a standard template with lots of ads in it and hoping for money to roll in.
Looking back, I realized that there many bloggers out there who face the some problem as well. Then it dawn to me that there should be a site that provides solutions and advise for many aspiring bloggers out there.
That lead me to start 4u2invest.blogspot.com.
While producing articles for 4u2invest.blogspot, I had my fair share of researching and reading. The reason? I did not want my articles to be just another cut and paste from a variety of sites. In addition, I wanted my articles to be simple and easily digested by readers.
A week ago, while doing some research for my article, I stumbled upon an article about the benefits of having your own custom domain. I decided to dig deeper. 10 more related articles later, I was convinced that having a blogspot in my url wasn't going to help my blog in terms of reaching a wider audience.
I immediately embarked on a search for a suitable domain. Thanks to MakeWords.com, I was able to find the domain name that I wanted in double the time by utilizing the site's domain name generator. To keep the story short, I bought the domain, registered with ZoneEdit.com, parked my domain in their server and defined my CNAME, did some configuration to the custom domain setting in my blogger account and I was up running. (Believe me, its not that complicated to use your own custom domain while using Blogger.com to host your blog. I shall be coming up with the guide soon.)
That my readers, was how Bloggerfocus.com got conceived.
Cheers and Happy Blogging.
