Blogging For Business - How to Keep Your Blogs Updated With Fresh New Content on a Regular Basis
When I first discovered blogs back in 2005, I was overjoyed at the thought of being able to publish my ideas on the internet so easily.
That joy soon turned to frustration when I discovered that committing to blogging meant a commitment to writing on a daily basis.
I had always wanted to be a writer, but had not been writing for about twenty years.
I also set up about ten blogs that year, leaving me with writer's block and feeling dread every time I turned on the computer.
I knew there had to be a better way.
Soon I realized that I could write short posts on the two blogs I was most interested in maintaining.
The other blogs could all be updated and maintained by using other people's writing.
This is a completely legitimate way to blog.
The first place I visited was the largest article directory in the world, EzineArticles.
This site allows you to use articles written by others, as long as you give the author full credit, do not change any part of the article, and leave the author bio, also known as the resource box, completely intact.
This meant that I could find articles that fit my blog's niche and use other people's articles to keep the content updated.
It was also great for those authors, because their writing would be promoted and bring them more visitors to their site, as well as more sales.
It was a win-win situation.
Another method I employed was to find people who wanted to write guest posts on my various blogs, just to get the exposure.
My recommendation is to only start one or two blogs when you are just starting out, and then to look for ways to have others help you to keep them updated with fresh, new content.
