Caught With My Pants Down!

By
Real Estate Technology with Rentec Direct

To blog or not to blog... it's been the question on my mind this month yet I've failed miserably with follow-through as this is my first blog ALL JANUARY!  Usually my creative juices flow, I can get in blog-groove pretty easily and inspiration flows like honey, yet January has proven to be more of a black-hole-groove.  

How many of you started 2012 with blogging intentions only to be caught exposed with nothing to show?  Days gone by, filled with plenty of activity, yet nothing shared with your online community and nothing gained by SEO work.  

Blogging is a constantly growing medium and if you miss your opportunity, you are missing a HUGE strategic bandwagon.  I found this chart in an article that was discussing blog strategy and it offers a great visual for the growth in the blogosphere:

So, Back in the saddle, on the wagon, onward soldier!  I admire those of you who have been faithful to the call and show up each day with a wellspring.  Let's continue to keep each other inspired by sharing our stories, offering our insights, questioning each other.  

Blog away!

Keep at it Janell. It takes a while to build relationships and the skills you learn are transferable to other stuff.
