Jeruk 0 Report post Posted September 4, 2008 (edited) I decided to blog in English with a lot grammatical errors perhaps. So I hope anybody can check my article and inform the grammar errors. I think this is the best way of learning to write.If you decided to leave comment about my article, please doing so at http://closepages.blogspot.comIDEA FOR BLOG:If you want to start blogging but you still do not have any idea, this is the right article for you. To drive people to your site you need to have contents that suit your readers. 1.Blogging about computer and technology:-Most of the people that like to surf, usually acttracted to gain information about computer and technology. If you blog about these things, I am sure that your blog will attract a lot of traffic.-However, you should be aware that the bad side is that most of the current articles that you write will not be relevant after few years later. This is common because technoloy moving so fast and changes happen frequently.2.Blogging about food / places / vacation :-Blogging about food seem to be boring however you need to remember the fact that food still remain the same all of the time. If you write about the nasi lemak you eat todak, after 10 years they will still some people that will search for "nasi lemak"-What I want to say is, although the blog about food seems to drive less traffic than technology, however the contents are always relevant for lifetime. So blogging about food also is not a bad idea.3.Below I state a list of blog that you can write as a starting platform:-Game-fasion-celebrity-sports (need to update frequently)Besides, you should also aware of a few things before you start blogging:1.Does your blog contents always relevant?-If you blogging about sports but do not like to update, your content will not be relevant anymore and thus your site will have bad ranking in search engine.2.How much your competitor is?-Just my opinion, I think that having a less competitor is good. Why? Let say that I am writing about famous technology like handset. Maybe my content is good but I need to struggle so that it can reach high page ranking in search engine.3.Do you prefer common visitor or not?-If you like your site to have its certain die hard fan, make sure that your blog is specialise. This is because people always find something that specialise.-If your blog is just like my blog, it's hard to find its loyal visitor. However, you can still depend on search engine.Then, why I still blogging? There is a simple reason to it. I hope that I can improve my writing skills and and I want to improve my English. So why not I start blogging?? Right now I am trying to blog in English (and I think with a lot of grammar mistakes). So if any of you find grammar errors, I hope that you can correct it by giving comment.Ha ha, maybe later my blog can be the source for students to learn English...

However I did not how to make the right sentences for them.Maybe I should consult my English teacher directly.Yes that would be the best choice. It's hard to explain the mistakes in forums because it'd take too much time. Unless you ask us to check one sentence at a time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kasyfi 0 Report post Posted September 13, 2008 In writing world, grammar is as much important as the content of the material. Same goes to blogging, which means you turn your piece of writing into technology stuff.Just imagine, if you write with broken language and lots of grammatical error, it wouldn't be called a written material anymore, it's a crap!Plus, those errors might as well cut down the mood of interpretation. Or maybe you are fond of driving a broken car..hmmmm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you write about the nasi lemak you (ATE) toda(Y), after 10 years the(RE) will still (BE) some people search(ING) for "nasi lemak".-What I want to say is, although blog(GING) about food seems to drive less traffic than technology, the contents are relevant for (A) lifetime. So blogging about food is not (SUCH) a bad idea.3.Below, I (HAVE) state(D) a list of blog that you can write as a platform:-Game-fasion-celebrit(IES)-sports (need to (BE) update(D) frequently)Besides, you should also (BE) aware of a few things before you start blogging:1.

Why? Let('S) say that I am writing about famous technology like handset. (PERHAPS) my content is good but I need to struggle so that it can reach high page ranking in search engine.3.Do you prefer common visitor(S)?-If you (WANT) your site to have its certain die hard fan, make sure that your blog is specialise(D) *IT'S BETTER TO USE "PRECISE" OR "SPECIFIC"*. This is because people (WILL) always find thing(S) that (ARE) specialise *AGAIN, IT'S BETTER TO USE "PRECISE" OR "SPECIFIC"*. .-If your blog is just like my blog, it's hard to find its loyal visitor. However, you can still depend on search engine.Then, why (AM) I still blogging? There is (JUST) a simple reason to it. I hope that I can improve my writing skills and and I want to improve (ON) my English. So why (HAVEN'T) I start(ED) blogging?? Right now(,) I am trying to blog in English (I think [THERE ARE] a lot of grammar mistakes). So if any of you find (ANY) grammar errors, I hope that you can correct (THEM) (AND LEAVE YOUR COMMENT).Ha ha, maybe later my blog can be (A) source for students to learn English...*hope you don't mind that I used upper casing*PEACE...hehe!
