Recently I hosted a thread at Blog Catalog where I reviewed a lot of new blogs. I noticed some mistakes that kept coming up and decided to make a video explaining them. If you can avoid these three, you’ll have a much better start than most new bloggers.
What do you think new bloggers should avoid? Tune in next week for my next podcast or subscribe to my feed.

Thanks Damien – like many writers, I find it too easy to stumble into “personality blog” territory and forget my focus, so I’m grateful for the reminder. It also served as a kick to get me to adjust my “about” page and do something about branding my site – that’s today’s work list written!
I hope you don’t mind a little criticism – invest in a bigger white board and a tripod!
@Mike: Thank you Mike. I’m doing my best to get a podcast done each week and I appreciate the suggestion about a bigger whiteboard and a tripod. Will get! Best of luck with your blogging pursuits. Hope all is going well. Keep in touch.
Thank you for the video it was instructive.
hopping to hear from you more often, but put a tripod :o)
Regards,
I agree with bendrits, a tripod would mean so much Damien, it can be a 50% quality boosts. Anyway, good job!
I now own a tripod :) From now on when I post videos they will be fixed. Thank you!
