I have gotten emails from people have read my blog and want to do blogs in that same and want to do more blogs from those topics on my on my website. I wonder why. The SEO person in my BNI says oh yes you should do it. Well I said last week that I want to be genuine. So really do I want to get plenty of traffic at any expense.
So that being said here are some things I would not do.
Tip number 1 do not take pictures off the Internet. You know that you could get in big trouble for doing that I think I did for 5 minutes when I started and then I heard stores and i didn't want to be one of them. Some of you have credits next to your picture. Why back when I opened an account with istock.com. These are Getty Images of high quality. I buy credits and use them when i need them. The one above is a credit. So is the one below
Tip number 2 - Don't copy and paste. Everyone knows that it is not authentic.
This is the easiest way I know to hurt your blogging voice and your credibility. If you see some good information and it relates to an interesting topic do the fact checking and quote the source when you add you on context to it. It is ok think to start a blog as i do on my constant contact and then add a link Read more.
