10 STEPS TO BECOMING A BLOGGING BFF
1. Determine your primary audience
- find out who you are talking to/who do you want to talk to
2. Post regularly!
- almost daily
- your blog and post on others blogs
3. Keep posts short
- most people don’t care
- don’t vomit on your readers keep it short and sweet
- occasionally you can have a long post
4. Be Real. Share your story, victories and failures

5. Use Humor!
6. Don’t put down other ministries or people
7. Remember that blogging isn’t private

8. Be a thought reader
- don’t just steal someone else’s stuff. Be original and listen to what your readers want to read
9. Don’t listen to your critics
10. Reveal the real you
- don’t write about what you don’t know
