Today, there are young bloggers who have their own websites and blogs. Some even boast high rankings and good sized communities. I contacted a handful of young bloggers, all under the age of 17, to get an idea of whether they see their age as a hurdle and what advice they would give to new bloggers.

The free “Blogging’s Long Tail Approach&# white paper is devoted to describing this notion of blog content breadth, and its impact on search term selection, and search term optimization. But the reality is, your blog is probably a lot more broad than you think.

Just do it while giving back to the community as well. This turns bloggers sour, thinking that everyone in public relations or blogger outreach is just a spammer. It’s time consuming to look at which bloggers to target, read posts, and then write a personal message to the blogger along with the actual pitch.

The blogger (Professor Jutras) posts his ideas, occasionally throws in some editorial and takes some light, widget-fed microblogging (the current events some students share). But it’s only ever got two participants: the original commenter and the blogger. Membership blogging partially meets our needs for community.

3: Large Brands – Bigger brands have two things that smaller companies don’t: an already built community, and money. Communities, social news sites, and online sharing can be leveraged to build a site following. They also often require large investments to create an initial community. Could I add one to your list?

What would you do differently in terms of content or design? Have you taken the time to be a consumer of content first before being a publisher? There is no real down side to being a content consumer first. It can start up the two way communication that is very important for bloggers.

Many people stay to themselves, failing to participate in the community and to build rapport with others in the same field. Some bloggers seem to think they don’t need to focus on this but what they don’t realize is that their credibility diminishes through poor communication. © 2006-2010 Tamar Weinberg.

I’ve personally taken this concept so far that I now have a pretty new box at the end of most blog posts which highlights other bloggers that I enjoy. Too many bloggers get a sense of their own importance, start believing their own publicity and offering advice waaaay out of their remit of what they really know about.

A better approach is to create a content ecosystem that allows you to repurpose and cascade your best information. Instead of a series of self-contained initiatives, build yourself a content ladder.

Without a statistical measure of your blogging progress, adding content to your blog on a regular basis can be an incredibly lonely proposition. This sounds simple, but it’s shocking how many bloggers aren’t clear on the core business rationale behind their blog initiative. Is anyone out there? Does anyone care?
