I regularly rummage around the net looking for tips on better blogging. My thinking is, if this site is going to be a useful resource for the OC/IC community then I need to invest in making it as attractive and user friendly as possible. Most of the articles and sites I’ve read are designed for businesses and entrepreneurs who are earning a living from blogging. This means that they are not always immediately related to our needs as representatives of a faith tradition. However, I have stumbled across a host of useful bits and pieces over the past three years that have made a difference in the visitor numbers of this site. Since I recently posted urging all OC/IC folk to get involved in blogging – I think it’s only fair that I now invest in helping people to do just that, and do it well by sharing these tips in a series of posts. Obviously I don’t have all the answers, only ideas gleaned from other places that seem to work here (and some that don’t work so well, but are still worth mentioning) that I hope you will expand on, and “tweak” from your own experiences in comments.
