    Dear Sunil,

    Nice article and writing but frankly speaking, i dont like the way you are using Google Adsence banners. I understand that every blogger want to make some extra bucks but they way you are using banners are not proper, i mean it is purposefully placed to make people click on that.

    I recommend to follow adsense guidelines, if you want to stay long with adsense, do play ethical.

    all the best

    I've read blogs where bloggers try to impress others with their knowledge of a particular subject by using all this technical jargon. They don't seem to see that most people don't get it and will switch off.

    Good point, it's always best to keep it simple.

    Typically you need a paid webhosting account and some experience to setup and run and promote your own blog, but you can create a blog easily and Free in minutes if you use some blog hosting platform.

    • http://www.gupshupblog.com Sunil Jain

      Initially you have to start up with free blogs only so that later you can decide that "are you serious about blogging" :) :)

    Getting visitors to your blog can be done many ways – 1. Search engines – more content you post , more hits you get, 2. exchange links with blogs on same subject, 3. Submit interesting posts to social networks etc.

  • hosting domain

    what points keep in mind when creating a blog and posting content of another website.
    Just copy content from any website and paste on my blog.
    Is google ban my blog for copy-write. or i have to use certain things to do that copy-paste.

    • http://www.gupshupblog.com Sunil Jain

      Wherever you blog , your content matters ;)
      If you copy form others either they can send you a legal notice of penalty or they can cancel you domain by reporting your hosting provider.
      When it comes to Google , it indexes only the unique content and displays it in the first page of the search :) :)

    I think another important consideration are your goals, do you just want to make money, or build a name for yourself as a flagship expert? These two things are very different.

      Hello JR :)
      Recently i had watched a Hindi movie -> 3 Idiots in which there is a saying that " Be excellent in any stuff then success will run behind you "
      Similarly blogging for money should not be your initial goal , once you are recognized then later you can think of it , what do you think ??? :) :)

    I will surely abide by these points that you have listed. I have been writing blogs for quite a while now. I keep them short and I agree that there is a need to add some pictures to spark more interest.

    @Pamela

    Hello Pamela , I am glad that you agree with all the points listed above and definitely images play a big role in attracting the readers and hence decrease the bounce rate of your blog :)

    Thanks for commenting =)

  • thecapital15

    at the end of the day its YOU that matters,, because blogging is not something that you can work on,, either you are born with it or you just can't do it!! its like singer or actor you can't improve on it,,, you need to have that spark which appeal to the audience…

    @thecapital15 You are right Altaf, it’s all about “YOU” , but this post gives you a clear idea on how to create a blog and letting to know few basic things while creating it :)
