15 Things You Should Know Before You Start Blogging

by Daniel Scocco

I am in Rio de Janeiro right now for the SEO de Janeiro event. That is why we had no post yesterday (the welcome pool party required all my attention…).

The event goes until Monday, and after that things will go back to normal on the blog. On Tuesday I will also try to post a recap of the event here with some pictures, so stay tuned.

On the mean while, if you are thirsty for some blogging tips, check our the article from Neil Patel titled 15 Things I Wish I Had Known When I Started My First Blog.

Here is how he started the article:

Over the last 3 years I created 2 blogs, my first (Pronet Advertising) is on marketing and my second (Quick Sprout) is on business. Although both of my blogs do well, I made my share of mistakes. I am not a big believer in regrets and I have learned a lot over the last 3 years, but if I started all over again, I would do things very differently.

Check it out!

Just read the article it was a good article although I think he could of gone in to a little more depth explaining each mistake more clearly and how people could benefit from his mistakes.

I don’t usually add my own link but I know it will help people, I have over the past 10 weeks or so been writing my own Blogging series which looks at my own Blogging mistakes and considerations to make before you develop a Blog.

There is no such thing as a mistake, just something new you learned not to do again.

Thanks for the article. I too believe that from every mistake we learn and from the mistakes comes knowledge. Sharing mistakes is a great way to learn, but sometimes we need to make the mistake ourselves in order to truly learn.
