Yes, I\u2019ve blogged about social media and some cool ads that have come up, but I\u2019m uncertain about my blogs effectiveness. I understand that it is a class requirement to write my blog, but I want to continue after the \u201crequirement\u201d stage, and create a personal blog that can strike interest from people that aren\u2019t forced to read my blog for grading purposes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">I fully understand the importance of blogging in the business world, in the marketing world, and even in the personal branding world. So I began to wonder, how can I make my blog better? How can I make it so people actually would come across value in my posts? This self searching led me to a blog post by Tyler Tervooren titled <a href=\"http:\/\/www.problogger.net\/archives\/2011\/03\/23\/the-better-blogging-formula-think-do-write\/?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+ProbloggerHelpingBloggersEarnMoney+%28ProBlogger%3A+Helping+Bloggers+Earn+Money%29\" target=\"_blank\">The Better Blogging Formula: Think, Do, Write,<\/a> which exactly answered my question. It outlines a blogging success formula that emphasises the importance of actually doing what you\u2019re writing about. No one wants to read about a travel blog, until the persons been there, and no one wants to read about a cooking recipe until someone has actually cooked it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">So my goal for next week is to add the doing part into my blogging formula and see how the test run goes&#8230;of course I\u2019d love to endorse the Think, Do, Write formula right now, but then it\u2019d be contradictory to the ideology behind it. So I\u2019ll let you know next week once I\u2019ve actually done it!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.problogger.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/08\/problogger-logo-design.jpg\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0I\u2019ve really developed a personal interest in blogging, social media and twitter, but unfortunately I\u2019ve hit my first\u00a0writers\u00a0block when it comes to blogging.
