It’s been 20 wonderful days of blogging. Was pretty confident of learning new things through blogging but never expected the learning process to start that soon. I am now regretting for not starting blogging much before. Better late than never, as they say (ok some self-consolation).
In this post I’d like to tell you about what all things I have learned in the last 20 days, not many but still above my expectations.
- Making myself organised : First of all, let me volunteerly admit that I am a highly unorganised person when it comes to work. But, blogging has somehow taught me to work in an organised way to some extent. I have now learned how to keep myself productive and what all things affect productivity. Instant Messaging is by far the most distracting thing I have experienced.
Not only did I learn about productivity, I have also learned to keep handful of pre-written posts/drafts in the buffer. This is what we call risk management in blogging.
I have also downloaded a To Do List Manager, it’s showing some positive results too.
- Writing for humans : Gone are those days when the likes of Keyword, Title Tags, Number of words etc used to play on my mind (well, not really but still). I know they are important, but, writing for humans is much more important if one looks at a long term prospective. People say "Content is king", and I say "At present content is not the only king, but surely will be" as the SEO goes more semantic. I am here to stay for long, so that makes sense.
- Social Media is Important : Social bookmarking sites like Mixx, Digg and few others have helped me in getting TechnoDiary indexed, not only the home page but also each and every post that I have written so far.
- Incorporating images into the posts: Finally, I have realised that images are important, they make the post beautiful and give another reason to visitors to read the post.
- Commenting on other blogs: That has helped me a lot. Not only does it help one in getting some quality traffic to one own’s blog, it also helps one building contacts with fellow bloggers.
Nice! I have learned quite a lot of things. I’ll update you soon when I learn about more things. That’s all for the time being. Sayonara.

Blogging and publishing an article consistently (daily) takes quite an effort too, not just the time involved but having good topics or ideas to write about.
Happy blogging!
Good luck to you in Blogging Idol! I like all your points and agree.
That’s quite good that you have learn the basics of blogging so early. Keep going!!
Hi Sahil, I can’t believe that you are into blogging from past 20 days. By looking at your blog & your thoughts I felt like you are a very experienced blogger. It’s good that your have learned so many things in a matter of few days. Keep up the good work.
@Pras, I have several niche blogs but I have writers for them. I am not a newbie in true sense. Yes indeed I am myself blogging for the first time. Thanks for your good words, much appreciated :)
