Creating a blog 101!

#1: Make the design of your blog yourself! Believe me. it will look fantastic and you will get 0% hate, guaranteed! Also it takes about 5 minutes and it’s free!

#2: Update it whenever you please! 4AM? Haven’t posted in 5 months? Don’t worry! The best thing to do in that situation is put out tons of posts so your followers can see you’re back. 20 posts … 30 posts… it doesn’t matter as long as they’re rapid fire! I guarantee your followers will read them all with equal interest and will love you again instantly after seeing your devotion to them has returned!

#3: dont wori if yu haev gramar mistakes or misstype! im shure you’re odience will understand end luv you aider wey!

#4: Don’t try to be funny! Don’t BE funny either! People want original content and there are too many funny people out there.

#5: Don’t try to be original! Everything you can think of has already been done! People don’t care for original content they want funny content.

#6: Don’t contradict yourself (seriously this time)! For reference look at tips 4 and 5.

#7: Read the comments on your posts and videos and take them at heart!The comment sections on internet content is always very helpful and you should always follow any tips like: “kill yourself…” or “you should never post again…” etc. Also you should always encourage people who see the the content first to show you their devotion by making their achievement public!

#8: Never bring new people in your stories and posts! People don’t like their status quo to be disturbed and any alterations may lead to other people’s blogs, make them start wondering around and eventually leaving you.

#9: If you thought even for a second that any of the tips above were actual tips that you should follow, then just give up on blogging! Forget all of these tips (especially #7…!) and just go kill yourself!

Confused yet? Well I confused myself too so let’s stop here. That’s more than enough information to get you started. Don’t forget to share this with any friends you have (lol like you have any). I don’t care if they’re interested in blogging! Just do it!

When Is The Best Time To Post? You Asked!

When Is The Best Time To Post? You Asked!

    This week’s question comes to us from a long time blogger friend who still hasn’t worked out the answer to:

When is the best time to put a blog post live?

The fact that no one has a definitive answer to this question really isn’t surprising. So many of these blogging questions are basically like asking “How long is a piece of string?”. The answer is ALWAYS: it depends on your niche/audience.
