Every successful blogger or blogging coach will tell you it’s important to blog regularly to maintain the interest of your readers. So I posted a note to Twitter and asked the Twittersphere how they find inspiration for a blog post. This just encourages community discussion and give a wider point of view on the subject at hand.

Just do it while giving back to the community as well. I noticed someone asking for advice. Want to self promote?

Forums allow you to make conversation and that of course means being able to post whatever you want on the site. The only way you can get around this is to take the time and effort to establish yourself in the community, and then to post your link only when it comes up naturally in conversation.

One of the most common questions I’m asked by bloggers is “ how do I find readers? One of those places could possibly be a forum or social media group (like a Facebook or LinkedIn Group), and you’re missing out on a wealth of untapped readers if you’re not in there being part of the community too.

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).

Every few months somebody proclaims that blogging is dead and being replaced by micro blogging and other media and this post on the Forbes blog by Jeff Bercovici seems to say that Facebook and Twitter are replacing blogging. I’ve never been a daily blogger, but that doesn’t devalue blogging itself. It was awesome.
