What Do You Still Want To Know About Blogging?

Andyhenry · 05-19-2009, 01:35 PM

Hi Warriors,

As you may or may not have noticed - blogging has been one of my 'things' over the years and I've always produced videos to answer any and all blogging-related questions people have.

I've done blogging and pinging (when the term first came out), manual blogging, manual building of auto-growing blogs, how to get indexed right away, how to monetise blogs, demo'd various auto-build/auto-growing tools.

Is there anyone here who still has questions about blogging?

Or are there still common blogging related questions that people here still have?

I'm going to make some more video tutorials soon and I want to make sure this subject is fully covered before I do a different subject.

So - if there's still something about successful blogging that you don't know - let me know and I'll make sure to include it in the videos I make.

If you ask a question that hasn't already been answered here - I'll answer it with a video tutorial and send you a copy to make sure it's explained clearly before I let anyone else have it.

How to build a community of followers and how to encourage people to post comments.

It's weird - posts keep disappearing from this thread.

I've replied twice and they're both gone - plus there was another reply from someone about getting traffic which has also gone.

I think the forum's playing up.

Whatever is going on - I'll make some video answers and give them away to warriors.

I remember before pinging was normal a single ping could get you 20-30+ single subscriptions even with a bad post and title.

Anyway, I want to know something about building loyal readers for any blog.

I am always confused about if to allow comments and pinging as i am never sure if they are good or bad for traffic and rankings etc

How is blogging helping you in your marketing efforts in terms of target traffic?

Hi Andy,
I would be interested in hearing about some of your techniques for getting traffic to your blogs and what you do to monetize that traffic.

In specific I would like to know if you comment on other people's blogs to get links back? And how you go about finding them. In some niches, that part seems difficult.

Hi Andy - great idea for a thread

I'm still stuck on understanding pinging

Actually I do not want to understand it. I just need to know I'm doing it right.
Gosh I've not said that since I was a teenager - Blush.

1. How to ping a squidoo lens
2. How to ping a blogger blog
3. How to ping a wordpress.com blog
4. How to ping a self hosted wordpress blog
5. How to ping anything else that is worth pinging.
6. Is there any difference in what you are pinging?
...............

7. Now if you can also explain it too me as well then that's great.

All the best
