As a "smaller blog" I always wonder to myself what attracts the most attendance daily. Who is reading and who isn't. What other bloggers schedules are like and what I am doing the same/different.
I have sponsored a few blogs since I stepped onto this platform and have a gained a few bloggy friends. I have found a trend over the last year where a few stick around commenting all of the time and then I won't hear from them again. They hang out for a little while and then I wonder where they have been or what they are up to.
I spend a great amount of time on my posts. I usually am brainstorming throughout the day what I will write about next, what kind of audience it will attract and a title (which seems to be the hardest decision of them all).
So here are some questions I have for you:
What were the first steps you took to becoming a "bigger blog"?
Who would you recommend sponsoring?
How did you go about learning the outs and ins of the blogosphere?
What do you know now that you wish you knew then?
Of the followers and readers you have, how many do you talk to often? Do they come back frequently or are they sporadic?
By the looks of my blog, what could I do differently?
If you offer support, help and guidance in growing blogs send me an email. I am searching for the person who will help me grow my blog, become a friend and listen to all of my questions as I am still learning.
