Top 5 Tips for New Bloggers

I was unsure how to go about listing 5 Top Tips for New Bloggers as I, myself am a Newie to the blogging world. I have read the articles "A Bloggers Code of Ethics" and also the "EFF: A Legal Guide for Bloggers", and both articles had very relevant information regarding the do's and don'ts of blogging. I have decided to go in a different direction with my advice.

I decided to stick to 5 Tips which may not necessarily be found in an rules and regulations type of article, so alas my tips for the novice are:

Tip 1.

Don't blog about people that you don't want to read about it.....eg. your boss may google you one day and oooops up pops your scary Xmas party slag about him.


Tip 2.

Try and be truthful, if something didn't happen - don't blog about it. You will get caught out.


Tip 3.

Never blog when under the influence of alcohol or drugs. We have all been there late on a Saturday night and it will come back to bite you.


Tip 4.

Have Fun - and make the blog your own by enhancing with various pictures or diagrams. Whatever rocks your boat.

Tip 5.

Be free to be you. Don't be afraid, blogging can become one of your favourite outlets.
