I agree that consistency is very important yet hard to achieve. It's difficult to keep coming up with new and interesting articles. I find it mentally draining.

It's a very nice post. I wonder how many bloggers actually realize that. Well, there's a wide variety of readers who may come across one's blog but what's important is CONSISTENCY, as you mentioned. It'll make a good impression if you have it.

These are great tips, thank you! I got stuck for awhile in planning what we wanted the goals and elements of our company blog to be (we make mobile reference software for libraries) that I couldn't come to a decision on how to get started. In the end it was just about picking a targeted area, thoughts and commentary on working with libraries, new technologies, etc.

Things have started, everyone knows what they need to do to contribute and all is set up for success. Implementing these tips will make it even better.

The beauty of writing your own blog is you are the boss. You are sharing some valuable information however one thing I did not notice is "Commitment" I have seen many blogs with a "gone fishing" sign. Basically the person looses interest or they have not updated since 2003. I have a variety of blogs & I try to post at least twice a week. Having a blog simply to monetize is where (imho) people go wrong. Again thanks for sharing your info.

Great tips. I also tend to think that you need to periodically look at what you are doing and make sure your message hasn’t become stale.

@charlene:

Kottle.org is a fantastic blog with a unique *and* simple design.

Also, the 37 Signals blog has a nice clean design.

You can see I'm partial to simple layouts, however design is totally a personal preference. Check out the blog design roundups on Smashing Magazine for some of the more avant-garde designs .

As for outliers in the blogging world, it all depends on niche - they exist across the spectrum of interests.

Adam, Thanks for your post. Very helpful. Just a few questions: On #2 on design. Can you give me some examples of blogs that have "simple" and/or "unique" designs? And I'd also love to know who you consider to be the outliers in the blogging world.

"Focus on a unique topic, or intersection of topics"...this is really important; all the successful blogs I know are focused and you can find the same philosophy/message in every single post.

Great tips. One way that I have found to have a post archetype is to express my personality through the blog as an archetype -- for instance, cowgirl. I use horses and microfarming as analogies for solutions I am offering through my blog. I also like your other point of viewing the topic from a fresh angle. I've have to get some coaching to realize what specific slants on which specific topics catch the attention of small business owners for my blog, and that has really made a huge difference. A solid list of useful pragmatic tips.

Great post.

My blog is fairly new and I am really working to find my "voice".

For now, I'm not going to worry too much about Super-Uber-Quality content. I'm just going to write what comes to me and try to be true to my readers.

I don't know. Guess I just thought I would share.

Thanks for the Super-Uber-Quality content by the way....
