Good advice! Unfortunately, a lot of the basics of blogging are ignored from the get go due to lack of knowledge. For example, your advice for hosting your blog on your own domain. Thanks for including excellent followup advice in the comments too!

Hi Eric,

It wouldn’t hurt for people to upgrade the way they speak too if their current pattern includes repeatedly saying “you know” or “ummmm”. I agree that if you want to blog continually improving your copywriting skills is essential. Some may need to enlist assistance from someone more talented at grammar, spelling, and writing than they are at least for a while.

My strongest tip is to always write from the perspective of what is in it for the READER. Many business sites focus on themselves far too much. Only your about page should be all about you and even that could focus on what you have to offer THEM.

Every time I read something that starts out “My business has been doing blah blah blah for X years” I immediately hear the reader thinking “so what”. They want to know that stuff AFTER they decide you have something they’re interested in – not in the first paragraph of everything you write.

The essence of a blog is content. Really take time to sharpen your writing skills and understanding of grammar and punctuation. Practice, practice, practice. I find my clients often do not distinguish the way they write and the way they speak. I had to edit out “you know” from one of my client’s articles. There must have been two dozen instances of that overused phrase.
