What you need to become a successful blogger
Create a new blog can be anyone for a few minutes, so the Internet has millions of blogs, but with each passing day, more and more new ones. But how many of them are successful? 10 percent? 1 percent? Hardly even 0.01% of the total number of blogs can claim to be a resounding title. The reason is obvious - to succeed is not enough to start a blog. There are no components which are difficult to get things done.Consider some of them that if they do not guarantee you the title of top bloggers , or at least help you realize all the plans conceived.

Keenness

If the process does not give you pleasure, if you're not blogging with enthusiasm, he is doomed to oblivion. You can quickly lose interest and, consequently, either entirely abandoned the project, or will do little interest by virtue of the materials. Of course, passion - the concept is not eternal and will eventually fade a bit, but for a good start, of course, need a fuse - then learn new things will be more interesting and easier to work.

Uniqueness

Every good project has its own unique "person." If your blog does not stand out among their own kind, he had hardly become widely known and popular, although it does not mean that he is doomed. For many of the same projects with similar articles win the old-timers, newcomers easier to attract the audience it was a non-standard approach or materials. The blogosphere has been plenty of examples where a unique interesting project started quite an enviable rate. So make sure to think about some interesting chips. Do not be amiss to develop a recognizable (even better unique) style - both in design and in writing texts.

Determination and consistency

According to some studies a lot of bloggers throw his child even before they formed the core of readers.Conclusion - Success rarely comes quickly, so you should be set to a serious and consistent work.Choose your convenient schedule of publications (one post each day, three post per week or 5 posts per month) and follow it strictly. Actually, I think, much in the final success depends on this commitment - from you, for example, may not be the passion, unique in presenting the material, but that does not mean you have to give up. Moreover, the bloggers at the beginning and after a couple of years - they are two different things, you can see the first recording of any of popular authors, over time, gain more experience.

A sober view of things

Do not expect too much at once. Some bloggers expect to receive the first month of 1000 subscribers a week, or hoping to start earning $ 300 a day. When this did not happen people are disappointed and discouraged. To avoid this, start with easily achievable goals. In my case, the first money with a blog was around six months later, it was possible to reach a little earlier, but I saw only the blogging methods (banners, surveys), selling links is not engaged. By the way, if the personal blog for you a means to "earn a little money", the more effective ways to do this. In general, all used to start somewhere, do not worry if at first the effect of the blog is not like you expected.

Ability to write

The blogger with the ambition to be able to intelligently express their thoughts and writing opportunities with minimal errors. Without this, it is difficult to count for something. Very well, if you have a literary bent, then the readers will be very interesting. Although no wonder they say that the content is the king, so if you publish something unique, useful, manner of presentation for the majority falling by the wayside. By the way, about the mistakes - please write in Word, he sometimes emphasizes :) You can also post before publishing it again even read - helps to find some typos.

Responsibility

The reader wants to trust written, so you should not publish unverified facts (and if you do, and publish it with the appropriate mark) and the false imagination of the author. Cherish reputation! I remember one time published a post with one of its "mega investigation" concerning Yandeks.Blogov, it was discussed in detail with lots of examples, screen shots, and then the first comment on the note, "has killed the whole affair," because I was mistaken in his reflections. Since then, try to check carefully the information to the extent possible or not to publish at all.

Sociability and communication skills

The blogger should be able to make contact with his reader. This is key to building a community around this blog. In general, there probably is not even in the dialogue, and for good reasons - answer readers' questions in the comments, try to help them solve some problems, and to your blog will be very positive.

Communication skills in social networks

Today it is difficult to achieve good results without using a social network. If you are "you" with Twitter, Facebook and Twitter, it would be a good help of the blog. At least you can keep your Twitter account to communicate with people. The problem is most certainly the creation of a special group on social networking sites and a small advance - then you can attract more readers to your blog.

Technical knowledge and skills

The blogger must possess at least a basic understanding of what a domain name, hosting, CMS, HTML, CSS and more. Otherwise, effectively manage your blog is very difficult. Even if you crank the project on a free hosting, you still have to deal with technical details. Fortunately, the Internet is virtually any information about this and find a solution is not too difficult.

If all the listed items you do not have problems, you are sure to succeed in blogging! If something in a not so strong, it's not terrible, you can always learn, achieve and fix it.
