Diary Of A Novice Blogger Part Two
Whew! That first real blog entry is now out of the way! That has to be the toughest part....it must get easier from here!
I decided to keep a diary of my experience as a novice blogger, along with other diaries about specific treks along the social media road. My intention is to help other newbies along the way, and of course, to entertain and delight everyone. As a small business owner of virtual assistant services, not only do I need to become learned about social media applications, but I must share my knowledge of these applications...once I acquire some, that is.
The first thing I found out is no one will be helped, entertained, nor delighted, if they can't find my posts! It's all well and good for me to type my blog address in Google and beam like an idiot at my fabulous blog page, but then reality hits, and I know that no one is seeing my journal other than me....except maybe my husband, and my dog. I'm not really even sure about my husband, and my dog, though very smart, has never been spotted reading a book, a newspaper, or magazine, never mind a blog.
I've got some key words in place (whether they work or not is still debatable, but I won't know until I move onto what, I am told, is the next step in blogging: finding places to put my blogs. That step, I am assured by all I have read, is very easy. Really, just a click or two and it's done!
I am excited, of course, to know that I am mere moments away from success! I have, after all, submitted my business website url to search engines, directories, and the like, so this blog submission thing should be a snap for me! I have been given the basics on pinging too, and that would be a good thing to utilize.
Once I have submitted my blog, it certainly can't take long for my key word searches to put me right at the top of the blog rankings....or at least on the first few pages anyway.
Ok, here I go! Soon I will be rubbing elbows with the more experienced bloggers!
