When I first wrote my original “Why I Hate Blogs” for article submission I was pretty sure that the humor would get some hits but in my wildest dreams I never thought that out of the 26 articles I did write that it would be second in the amount of the hits it did get. Actually it was dark humor because I honestly do hate spending the time blogging away or let us be more specific – I honestly DID hate spending that time.

I believe it’s crucial to analyse what you want to achieve. To do this you must set specific targets you want to meet. Your targets should follow the SMART rule. Meaning each target should be Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant and Time-related. By setting yourself goals you are outlining want to want to accomplish therefore motivating yourself further. An example could be setting a monthly number of page views to your online business. To make this a SMART target it also must be a realistic number that can be achieved in a set time, for example 1 year.

For you to be successful you need about six months of consistent writing by creating new blogs that hit the market every day and can be found in all the search engines.

Search for yourself online. Simply go to Google and search for your company, you may be extremely surprised in what you find! I know we were, since the first page of results contained nine links to bad reviews or our competition, while only one was to our website. So if people searched for us online we were not making a good first impression. Google also has “alerts” which can be emailed directly to you as soon as a new result pops up in your name, which was also a big part of what we did. Again, direct someone to manage this day to day and cc everyone when something important comes up. The alerts are very simple to setup and change.

You can skim the headlines and only read the ones that jump out at you or save others for later. This gives you complete control over what you read. It’s also possible to search blogs and old archives of blogs when you’re looking for something in specific that might help you in the game.
