Today, a friend asked me to take a look at her new blog and so I spent 10 minutes reading it from top to bottom. Although it's aimed to women in business, I liked it a lot! (Ken here).
The blog has a catchy title and is laid out very clearly, and what's more, there's a separate page for first time readers that introduces the subject matter and the person behind it. Nice touch.
It's set in a classic, easy to read serif font, so my eyes didn't tire while reading and I actually read everything, something I don't always do. The top banner was stylish--colorful and contemporary and the rest of the layout was free from clutter. The effect was clean and to the point.
Naturally I subscribed--even tho it's for women in business, there's a lot of good advice for men as well. You can see it at: successaintforsissies.wordpress.com/
This same person suggested I take a look at another blog; one that's all about blogging itself. This guy has developed a profitable business out of blogging and showing others how it's done. You can see it at: www.entrepreneurs-journey.com.
The writer, Yaro, has developed a whole system of tips and tricks for bloggers and he offers some great free advice. He even offers some free vids on how to set up your blog at: www.becomeablogger.com
Both of these people have a great idea for their blog. They know exactly who it is that they are targeting and they write things that will be of interest to them.
What's your blog strategy? We'd like to hear about it.
