Blogging is Like Sushi

Submitted by Student on Tue, 01/29/2013 - 12:11am

Reading is involved in the ordering process of sushi and is also necessary for blogging, but that's not what I'm talking about. After reading countless blogging tips and scanning several 'how-to' websites, I've come to the conclusion that starting a blog and keeping it 'fresh' is similar to trying sushi for the first time and keeping the love for the delicasy alive.

Professional Blogger in the Making

At the beginning of this week, I was completely unaware of the potential of creativity that comes with blogging. It is, in a sense, similar to writing, but you can do SO much more with a single blog post. You can give millions of people access to your thoughts just by hitting the "publish" button.

I have always envied people who have aesthetically pleasing, successful blogs.

Blog doesn't die, it still keeps possibility.

Before I get into what I learned from one of the resources in the book, I have to share the experience I just had with trying to use SEO. It really isn't all that exciting but it is worth sharing for others to learn from. I had posted two videos to a new Youtube channel I started for my cheerleading gym. I tagged "pride123" to the videos hoping that this tag would be unique enough and help with SEO. Well, come to find out when you search Google for "pride123" it is actually a business about drug and safety education based in the UK.

Tips & Tricks for a Good Blog

I found this week’s reading very helpful by suggesting ways to improve my blog. One of the tips that I utilized this week had to do with internal links. In my first blog post, I didn’t use any internal links, so this helped spark the idea I should put them in my post.

How do we make a "good blog"?

Submitted by Student on Mon, 10/08/2012 - 6:58pm

Through the readings for this week in Cole/Mehraban and Scott's books, I have discovered techniques that can make my page unique. I have learned it is very important to add your personality to the page. This week, I chose a background and header photo for my blog that expresses my style. I chose a neutral color that complimented my header photo. The photo I chose for my header is one of my favorite photos. It is the "Lennon Wall" in Prague, Czech Republic. It is a wall that has been filled with John Lennon inspired graffiti and pieces of lyrics from Beatles songs.

Blog Pimping

Promoting your blog can take you down many avenues given the amount of available recommendations, plug-ins and other bells and whistles you can incorporate into your website to promote your blog.  It’s not that I am an in-decisive person but I do want to think about how I want to go about branding the blog in the long run and not just hitting a checklist for an assignment.  Perhaps not so surprising since I started out as a journalism major a lifetime ago, I am really enjoying the writing portion of the blog.  The topics are subjects I am familiar with and passionate a
