The Real Secret to Becoming a Popular Blogger
Posted by Holly in Blogging, Success
What makes a blogger successful and popular? According to a post written by Johnny Truant on “The Secret to Becoming a Popular Blogger“-it takes a person who others can relate to. It takes an interesting person – to really draw readers in and keep them coming back for more.
He points out that two bloggers of equal ability – can be having a totally different impact (or lack of) on readers. One may be interesting, and write the same way he speaks, sharing true stories mixed into the information he shares. The other may just share the facts – leaving readers educated, yet bored.

Business ideas are needed even more right now in this recession. So many people need another way of making some extra cash. Any ideas help.

Wow Holly
This is a hard hitting report. I went in and downloaded it and was surprised how many “scam sites” I recognised.
This is another step to “Honest Marketing” and all the principles you represent.
I think the more of these people speak out, maybe more of the Newbies coming on board will save their hard earned savings/cash on paying out to rehashed crap.
Great information to have. I will be keeping a closer eye on their site.
Kind regards
Tom

I have hopefully only the best sites linked to on my own web site and blog–over a hundred-including this one.When i link to a blog on my web site I find that these best ones all have 1 of 2 things in common;good information and/or information presented in a way to keep the reader’s interested for more than 20 seconds.

By the by;I had started my own rating system from th ninth page on ,based on content,readability,interest keeping and overall “following depth”
So a rating of ,let us say ,4.85,means great but the number of subscribers is less than the most popular sites or blogs so far.
