Blogging For Myself

I was having an open discussion with saimatkong a few days back. And from it, I took back a valuable observation I made of myself. As vain as it sounds, now I know why my traffic isn’t that great.

The simple answers always want to make you slap yourself. And my answer to myself was, I don’t blog for people.

If I really wanted to increase my traffic, what I should blog about are:

  • Tutorials
  • Website examples (galleries)
  • Downloads/Freebies

But I’m not doing all this. Yes, I’ve a category called website lessons or blog lessons. However, you’ll not find a tutorial on how to build a website or blog in there. I know I can write a series on it but I can’t feel the drive to do it.

What I blog about is my personal observations and opinions towards the website and online marketing ideas I’ve stumbled. I like blogging about topics which made me think and makes me want to share it with others.

While you read my articles, it’s like seeing and feeling what I felt when I was writing it.  This my blog’s true nature and the reason I’m blogging.

What is your blog’s true nature? Or, why are you blogging?
