“Who is my audience?”

Too often, bloggers start with the wrong question. They ask things like:• How can I be interesting?• What can I write about?• What will make this post more engaging?

Those are great questions, but they are totally meaningless unless you first un-derstand your audience.

“Blog for someone, not something”The clearer your view of your audience, the better your writing be.

“Quality of content and consistency are the most important factors in setting up your schedule… Consistency will keep them engaged, build brand awareness, and if done right help convert them to buyers.”

others.• Use your transparency to help others, not simply for the sake of being

transparent.
