“Post it”, “Hold it” or “Delete it”

Published by tclian under Blogging

When finished writing a post and decide to publish it, sometimes we can have thought like “Should I publish this post?” This put you in a situation: “Post it”, “Don’t post it first” or “Delete it”.

 

Don’t post it first
You may take few hours to write a post and then you decide not to post it. Because you think the content is not good enough and you want to rewrite it.If you choose to rewrite it, you better start the rewriting immediately. If you choose to rewrite the topic after a few days, you may not have such great ideas like the first time you write for the topic and this make the rewrite post is worse than the original post.

 

Post it.
If you post it, you have a chance to get comments from your readers. If you make mistake, sure the readers will correct you. From the readers’ comments, you can create a new content and link to the post that you make mistakes. It is better to know you make mistakes than never know. At least, we can learn from the mistakes and gets corrected.

 

Delete it
If you choose to delete a post that you already spent quite sometime on it. It is really a waste of time. Try not to put your post in this situation. Before you put your post in this situation, consider whether you can still put it in the above two situations.

 

I will choose to post it because I want to see my mistakes. Do you have this problem?

The more you do, the better you become

Published by tclian under Blogging

Have you ever wonder why that blogger can write such a good post and attract many readers to visit his/her blog? People who subscribe to his/her RSS is increasing. Why mine is so lousy and only a few readers came and visit my blog?

 

If you recall back when you are a kid in the Kindergarten, when you first get to know maths do you learn it step by step or you master it in one day. You have to do lots of maths questions in school and home too. If you go to math tuition class, the tuition teacher will give more questions to do. For the first time, you may take an hour to complete 10 maths questions. But after doing many maths questions, you only use 20 minutes to complete 10 maths questions. You already have the skill and know the techniques that’s why you are able to complete the questions in the short time.

 

This can apply to blogging too. When we are blogging for the first time, we are like kids in Kindergarten. We learn step by step. There’s a lot of things that we need to learn. We read blogs that have same niche like us, use any techniques or service available to promote our blogs, search for plugins and themes for our blog and etc.

 

All these requires many efforts and times from us. Soon or later we will master the skills or techniques that make our blog successful.
So if you just start blogging like me and feel disappointed with nobody visit your blog. Be patient, work hard and never give up. You will soon see the good result.

Time is always not enough

Published by tclian under Just Another Thought

I always find myself not enough time to do certain thing. For example, learn new programming, organize my work space at home, organize files and folders in the hard drive and etc. When I cannot complete certain task at a required time, I will get frustrated and said to myself “Why my time is always not enough”. Then I realize that all this while “my time is always not enough” is actually my fault.

 

Later I realize it is my bad habits that cause me “time is always not enough”.

 

- Procrastinate
I like to procrastinate. Tasks that are supposed to be done daily but I will do it once in a month. So tasks started to pile up quickly and I cannot finish it in one day.

 

- Messy
My work place at my home is always messy and this happen to the folders and files in the hard drive. When things are not properly organized and in the end it takes time to find them.

 

- Lack of strong determination
I put tasks off that I was supposed to complete them every day. I choose to go out with friends, watch tv drama, sleep, do downloading, etc and in the end, things are not done and result in stress and frustration.

 

- No timetable
It is hard to arrange time properly without timetable. I need to create a timetable and complete the tasks that has been scheduled.

 

Do your time enough for you? If not, it is time figure out what’s wrong with your time management

Blogs that make money what do they have in common?

Before I own a blog, I read other bloggers’ blogs. I found out blogs that has high traffic and make money have something similar. The common things that I found from these blogs are:

  • They post frequently. Blogs that make money have at least 2 posts per day.
  • They show how much they earn from blogging for each month
  • They have different money makers in their site besides Google Adsense.
  • They all have RSS and will ask you to subscribe to it.Some even give prize to people who subscribe to their RSS
  • They use Search engine optimization (SEO). You will find the blog mentioned how important is the SEO
  • They do not copy and paste. They give their opinions or write review about something
  • They give tips on how to earn money from blogging
  • They are passionate about blogging. I think passionate plays important role in every success stories
  • They shows other top bloggers who earn a lot money from blogging
