www.lockergnome.com – Rule #1: Be Craighton Miller! Har, har, har! (Just kidding, Craighton.) Everyone wants to be an award-winning machine of exquisite content creation who will be the envy of his or her peers, but there’s a lot of noise out there in the blogosphere and it’s tough to stand out in the crowd. If you want to focus on being a good blogger and write posts that people want to care about, you must first look at what not to do when composing a blog post. (After all, why learn from your own mistakes when others have already made them for you?)

  2. The only deterrent for me when it comes to blogging is people wanting to argue. I prefer to have a discussion where people offer advice and insight rather than bashing my article and insulting my intelligence for voicing my opinion on a topic. 

  3. to tell u the truth these are the exact reasons i never went into blogging, bec my blog post would look so bad it ll be an embarassing situation for me as a writer of that content, yes all these factors are very essential and that is where the necessary hard work is and i know its a lot of work that is why i respect all the content creators i follow.

  4. lol, nice topic for what not to do in blogging, yes very well written

  5. Honestly, I do a couple of these things. I have multiple blogs that I post to, but two of them I am not nearly as good about with posting regularly. It’s something I want to try to do more. Even just once a week.

    The other I struggle with is sometimes writing too long of blog posts.

    It was mentioned about writing too long of a paragraph, but how long should a blog post be? I’m open to suggestions. Are some of my posts too long? Here’s one of my blogs theendresult(dot)tumblr(dot)com

  6. yeah man maybe you don’t but I enjoy most of the stuff he put’s up here on YouTube and I’m sure lot’s of other people do to. I would suggest unsubbing if you don’t enjoy the content anymore as I’m sure he’d appreciate not getting shit comments like what you just posted.

  7. I agree. Chris relays his videos in such a way that they are much easier to digest and catalog. If I don’t think that a particular video topic will interest me as much, I don’t watch it right away. I would rather choose between multiple 2-10min videos, than watch one long video. Smart, efficient, I like it.

  8. i used to watch it until he started spamming my homepage with pointless shit nobody gives a fuck about!!

  9. should of named this chick in a bikini with a thumbnail of a chick in a bikini
