Ed Vielmetti on 10 Things You Need To Know When You Start Your Next Blog

Ed Vielmetti writes 10 Things You Need To Know When You Start Your Next Blog.

In comparison to Mark Bernstein’s Writing the Living Web, Ed’s piece has more tactical advice: matching blog software to your style of writing, picking good titles, writing for an audience that will drop in via search.

But they agree on not getting worried over the size of your audience, and the importance of archives.

Update: Fixing the mix-up on Mark’s name. Sorry Mark, and thanks _m. Weep for us, btw, for we can’t shut down the Red Wings in the closing seconds.

    Thanks for the point of comparision, Bill - I’m sure I had read that some time before, and it’s good to put the two side by side.

    I’m totally confident in the “audience of one” approach to blogging, that’s so much easier to put into your mind when writing than trying to put something together that a zillion people might or might not see.

    Not to be nitpicky, but it’s Mark Bernstein…

    Good pointer for blog writing advice, though… nice complement to Mark’s.
