The Three Great Enemies of a Blog

Today we'll talk about the three great enemies of a blog. I recently completed 3 years blogging. Believe me when I say that, although it has been a very rewarding period, the work was hard. And lately is harder still, because it is more difficult to capture public attention because of the huge competition, social media (especially Twitter), that have changed the way we communicate on the Internet and influenced how blog, and changes in Google algorithms, which aims to ensure the highest quality and usefulness of the content occupying the top positions in the search results.
From the beginning, I realized that you had to have a lot of imagination and that blogs are not a 100 meters race but a marathon. It is very easy to start a blog and leave soon. In fact, that's what happens to a large number of people who open a blog. Today we will see some of the causes of the closure of a blog. Fortunately, there are remedies against them.

A blog has three great enemies: the lack of constancy, apathy and impatience. Then I invite you to fight those three enemies with a few tricks I've learned over time.

Lack of Evidence

If you fail to regularly publish when simply not going to engage your followers. Especially at the beginning, set yourself a pace of publication and follow a schedule. And do not confuse rest with abstinence: sometimes you need a break; used the holiday as an incentive, not a procrastination.

Apathy

Boredom is another major obstacles faced by a blogger. Apathy comes when your blog has taken over you. How to achieve not be a prisoner of your blog?

Stacey Roberts proposes in 2014 Reboot: Find Motivation and Inspiration to Blog Better This Year some good solutions to combat boredom start a meme, interact with other bloggers, be exposed to new things (buy a book, watch a movie, meet someone Again, going for walks, spending time with his family, listening to music, going out of their normal daily rhythm, etc.).

But there is one idea at the very interesting article: Hire a coach who forces you to step back when necessary, to keep you in the direction that you have previously established that makes you difficult questions and encourages you when you're in a slump. No need to pay for a coach, this may be a friend, family member, another blogger, etc..

Impatience

Patience is the first weapon of a blogger and this is not nonsense. Without patience you will not get far. Visits will not arrive on the first day; perhaps months elapse until you start to see the first fruits. And if your blog has lots of years, then all the more reason you should arm yourself with patience because the world will breakneck speed and the road is endless.

I hope these will serve and fight it touches your irregularity, laziness and impatience.
