Today’s blogging tip is don’t over extend yourself. If you don’t have time to commit to your blog(s) then you have probably over extended yourself with either the blogs or your other activities. Either way trying to do both will make your life suck and no one gives a damn if you blog about your sucky life! When you start out blogging you need to make some serious time commitments to your blog and not just writing the posts either. Unless you have the extra cash to throw around at web developers then you really need to spend time learning site design, SEO, your blogging software, and all the latest information about the plugins that will make your blog great. How do you do it? You do it by reading a lot of really great blogs or better yet their feeds since you can do that quite a bit faster. Where Should you start reading? Here is my short list
