This is direct from my other blog over at www.fuelmyblog.com . I must appologise for the lack of posts recently, normal service will resume soon!


After reading over 400 blogs in the past two weeks, launching http://www.fuelmyblog.com/ I now am able to offer some blogging advice! What works for me may not work for you but I am open to debate here as a new 'power reader!'


1. Don't just post "Paid for" or "Sponsored Posts", slide them in among good personal posts.


2. Use classy photographs - not blurred images.


3. Always write when sober!


4. Try to be the first with news - I broke Beckham leaving Spain before the BBC!


5. If nothing happened that day, don't say "nothing happened today" - If I read a blog for the first time and see that, I wouldn't go back again, would you?


6. Write about your everyday life, getting to work, shopping, we may be in different areas of the World, different cultures are interesting.


7. Don't just talk about your kids.


8. Allow comments


9. Make sure your template is easy to read.


10. Take photo of your lunch, we all eat and I find it interesting! Mine is below, feel free to add a photo of yours!

When my site went live yesterday, www.fuelmyblog.com, I have gained an extra 49 readers. That is 49 more readers before launching to the public.

If I am right, www.fuelmyblog.com should almost guarantee more readers for everyone advertising. I am not most read blog either on the site either.

Does £50 represent good value for money? Well, the only reason I set up this site was to find more blogs to read and get more to read mine. I have already achieved that. £50 represents a one off payment. The site is guaranteed to be live for 5 years. Is £10 per year a lot of money?

You need to decide what you want to achieve out of your blog. Do you want more readers? Do you want to make money from your blog? Do you want to get your blog published as a book? Ultimately, if www.fuelmyblog.com generates more readership, you will achieve what you want.

If you have already advertised or want to advertise, think of this first. The only way people will find out about this site is if we all write about it. The more links to it, the more hits we all get.

Today has seen the launch of my press release, at the time of writing, over 3,000 PR agencies have picked up on it. I will keep promoting the site but without good write ups, none of us will gain any advantage.

Have a great Christmas and keep on blogging!

So, today's blog was going to open the debate about veil wearing in the UK. I can't start it yet as I don't know for sure what the story is here, it seems that a criminal escaped from Blighty wearing a veil. Once there is more info, I will address this with a debate.

So, onto today's topic. Blogging.

I was wondering just how many people blog? I have read reports that around 50 million are doing it. If that is fact, and the biggest blogging country is France, why is it that I have not met another blogger yet?

I love them. My wife reads them, and she seeks all sorts of advice from them.

Is the blog the greatest tool that is the result of the Internet? When you think of the Internet, you think of news and shopping. Blogging brings it all to you but normally, it is matter of fact and from the heart.

Blogging in the new documentary. I wonder how long before there is a blogumentary series on TV. Maybe there already has been. Let me know.

I would like some real stats on blogging, if you have any, post them in the comments.
