Questions To Ask Yourself Before Publishing That Post
Posted by Jimmy as Blog Tutorial, Tips, WritingFor some bloggers, coming up with a post is a hasty process. This could be especially true for those who have several blogs and need to post in a hurry at times. Though producing many blog entries at a time could be deemed productive, it doesn’t always mean that the entries are of good quality OR meet the needs of the blog. How do you prevent yourself from publishing such entries? Here are some questions that you could ask yourself before hitting the PUBLISH button on your web browser.
1. Is my entry easily understandable?
This question is actually related to an entry I posted recently on the use of big words. Yet big words are only a small part of a readable blog post. Try to look at your sentence construction as well. Another thing to look at would be the organization of thought. Is the flow easy to follow? Does the post convey your idea/s fluidly? If you find yourself lacking in one of these aspects, do not hesitate to postpone publishing and re-work your post.
2. Am I offering something new?
This is one of the biggest hurdles long time bloggers face. After writing and publishing hundreds of posts, it is only expected that some ideas may become redundant. If you are presenting an idea in a novel way, then that is acceptable. However, if you are merely saying the same things over and over again, you might want to find some other ideas to present to your readers.

Questions To Ask Yourself Before Publishing That Post (Part 2) by Blog Tutorials
24|Mar|2008[...] In my last entry, I present a couple of questions that you should ask yourself before publishing you… Here are a couple more. 1. Will my readers find anything useful in my post? This really depends on your target readers. If you take into account who you want reading your blogs – and you definitely should do this – then you can determine what your readers will find useful. For example, if you are targeting your business’s customers, then what they will find useful is something related to your niche. If you are writing for Blog Tutorials, then anything to do with improving one’s blog will be useful. Then again, if you just want to make people laugh and have a good time, then a post in that tone would be useful. Always remember that you should focus on a specific market and base your targets on that. [...]
