The world of blogging is laden with opportunity to develop these niche pockets of followers that you mention. I also agree with accepting limitations. The greatest strength of blogging (democracy at it finest) is also a weakness (plenty of voices out there). It's definitely important for individuals or brands marketing their platforms via blogs to accept this reality. Excellent post, Valeria!

Of course content matters a great deal and each point (secret) addresses that. I was looking more for the angle on nurturing the blogger himself/herself to build confidence and believe in self.

Welcome to the conversation, and thank you for contributing your thoughts. Of course content matters a great deal and each point (secret) addresses that. I was looking more for the angle on nurturing the blogger himself/herself to build confidence and believe in self.

Additionally, I think good content is important for a successful blog.

I thought we did away with trying to keep things separate with work/life. You're right though, seeing friends and family in the real world is a good thing ;-) The turkey -- what a fascinating name! I hope you celebrated your visitors. I remember when I had my first five. It's all good. The important thing is that you enjoy blogging. Usually like minded people do find you. Thank you both for visiting with The Blog Herald today. Hello Internet Cash Flow — that is a very interesting observation. I thought we did away with trying to keep things separate with work/life.

There are subtle cues in the presentation that each blogger chooses that are important to them -- and to you. For example, I liked the touch of your using a key as an icon next to your URL. It tells your value prop in one image. Welcome to the conversation, Michael. There are subtle cues in the presentation that each blogger chooses that are important to them — and to you.

And the 3rd point is one that could really catapult many bloggers to greater success if they did it right. Personal emails are still the best form of social media.
