Blogging or Blundering???

What makes for a good blog?

I have been blogging for a few weeks and I have questions. Well actually, I have a few questions. Will you help me decide whether I am blogging or blundering?

  1. How do you decide what blog posts to read? Is it the “title” that draws you into the post or are you following specific bloggers loyally and reading only their posts?

  2. Do grammatical errors in the blog bother you? Do you ever mention them to the author?

  • What makes you decide to comment on a blog? Are you really touched by the information contained in the blog or are you just trying to show support to those whom have been courageous enough to commit to blogging.

  • Well, I don’t think it’s fair to ask you to answer my questions without providing the answers to the questions myself. So here are my thoughts on these questions:

    1. Well both, a good title will get me to read a post and yes I read posts of those I follow. However, I am realizing sometimes this is one in the same. What do I mean? Sometimes, I decide to open a post because of the title them realize it is written by someone I follow.

    2. Sometimes and never. Grammatical errors bother me in a blog when they are numerous and I have never mentioned an error to the author. I believe being courteous contributes to the greater good of society. Correction only if’s it is edifying and never in a public forum.

  • I comment on posts that I can relate to and if I learn something new. I think it is important to give honor where honor is due.  If someone enlightens me in some way, if it’s possible I want to take the time to let them know the impact of their efforts.

  • Now, it’s your turn to comment. I appreciate your time and effort. Let me know your answers to these questions. I am growing with every interaction with you. I love to get opinions from those willing to share. I am evolving and shaping my brand by standing before my peers. Help me be a better me.
