Blog to tell, publicize, or promote

A collection of how-to articles on blogging to get the word out, especially in virtual worlds and social media.

Why
  • Publicize--Tell people about something important to you
  • That includes instruction and information
  • That's it.  At least for starters.  
  • Maybe you develop a rep and get hired as a consultant
  • Maybe you sell ads
  • But don't count on it
  • If you start for those reasons, you will soon quit
  • Anything that is worth doing is worth knowing why you are doing  it
