It seems to me that we bloggers get caught up in thinking about monetizing our blogs, or the design elements, or SEO; while the major focus of our time should be on our writing.

I’m often asked how I got over 136,000 readers for my blog, and the answer I offer folks might seem like there’s some trick that I do not want to share with them.

This is the answer. This is how you become successful as a blogger: create exceptional content, and the readers will come. Content is king, as they say, and that should be the focus of 90% of your efforts.
