			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-family:Georgia;"><font color="#800080">Welcome to the exciting and mysterious world of the <font color="#0000ff">B</font><font color="#ff0000">L</font><font color="#00ff00">O</font><font color="#ff00ff">G</font></font></span><span style="font-family:Georgia;"><font color="#ff00ff"> </font></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Georgia;"><font color="#800080">1. Have FUN creating your blog.  It should be personal and memorable.  Think about easy to read fonts, colour schemes and layouts.  Why not include visual aids?  Inspiration can be found in both words and images.  People should take pleasure in visiting your blog.</font></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Georgia;"><font color="#800080"></font></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Georgia;"><font color="#800080">2. Pay close attention to your titles and make sure they are descriptive and include key phrases or words as this will help with your blogs publicity.  You should aim to attract as many readers as possible.  After all, your talents have gone unrecognised long enough.</font></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Georgia;"><font color="#800080"></font></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Georgia;"><font color="#800080">3. Although it may feel wonderful letting your psyche run wild, it is best to stick to one topic per blog.  Make sure your blogs are not just a stream of consciousness, as this will not always grab or hold a readers interest.  It would be wise to write your initial blog in Word in order to check both grammar and spelling before posting.  Ensure your content is clear and concise.  You want to maintain a certain level of professionalism.</font></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Georgia;"><font color="#800080"></font></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Georgia;"><font color="#800080">4. You can never do enough research.  If you are finding it difficult getting started, please research.  Locate interesting and successful, well established blogs.  If you are concentrating on a specific topic make sure you read relevant blogs to ensure you are not just covering the same information or perspective.  Establish your own original angle.  Make sure your content is up to date and relevant.  Ask other bloggers to comment and respond.  Feedback is good.  </font></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Georgia;"><font color="#800080"></font></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Georgia;"><font color="#800080">5. Establishing a blogging pattern is very important. You may have written a few very interesting and popular blogs all a week apart. Your readers eagerly await the next installment. A great many months pass when you finally decide to revisit your WordPress excitedly pasting your piece de resistance, only to find there are no longer subscribers. You have lost your audience; they are visiting new interesting and popular blogs by bloggers who maintain their posts regularly without fail.</font> </span></p>
