Content

Well as they say content is key, you have to pick a topic from which you have a wide ranging knowledge.  If you can find a niche and strive to become an authority on the topic then people will pay attention.

The regularity at which you add content to your blog also provides a key point in determining whether visitor levels grow.  Frequently added content will help to drive new visitors to your blog whilst also providing regular readers with a reason to keep coming back.

Research research research

Keep your ear to the ground and finger on the pulse looking for the latest news and technologies.  Your users want to find cutting edge articles and if you can’t provide them they will find another site which can.

Create controversy

Now this is something I hear other bloggers mention a lot and to be quite honest I’m not too sure I totally agree, so let me explain.  If your articles cause controversy but you believe in everything your writing and feel you can back up your statements then I have no problem with this.  This is the start of a debate not a war, however, if your sole aim is to cause controversy with the aim of driving traffic and you can’t substantiate your claims/statements then I believe you will only create a negative long term impact on your blog.  Users are not stupid and do not like deliberate and underhand attempts for attention, plus it’s never a good idea to get yourself a bad reputation.

Passion and drive

Your articles must display your passion and drive for your desired topic.  Without this your articles will undoubtedly be a less then entertaining read and more than likely provide very little interest to readers.

Blogger finally supports OpenID, which means WordPress, LiveJournal or Vox users can directly leave comments on Blogger posts. For those who don’t know what OpenID is, it’s a simple URL, which can be used to sign into any site which supports OpenID. Since you’re the only one who has control over your URL, you’re the only one who can use that URL as your identity.

How to use your own site as your OpenID URL:

Like most people, I’m not comfortable with handing over the ownership of my personal identity to some third party OpenID handler. I want the flexibility to choose between OpenID providers without having to change my OpenID URL. How? Well, it’s pretty simple. All you got to do is pick any free OpenID provider and create an account (if you already have an account on WordPress, LiveJournal or Vox, you can skip this step). Now add the following lines just above </head> on your weblog or whichever URL you’d like to use as an OpenID URL:

<link rel="openid.server" href="http://www.myopenid.com/server"> 

<link rel="openid.delegate" href="http://username.myopenid.com/">

Replace openid.server href with your OpenID provider’s server URL. Similarly, replace openid.delegate href with your OpenID URL. For instance, if you want to use your WordPress blog as your OpenID provider, then it should be:
