My wife, also a blogger, forwarded this to me.

I think you have done a terrific job summarizing Elise Bauer, but guess what, you have yourself not followed most of the suggestions from her.

And that is Okay. I think, like most things in business, same rules do not apply to everyone. I can post my favorite YouTube video with just one line of text and create a compelling post, while I may need to write 100s of words to comment on the impact of oil prices on economic forecast.

A blog is merely a publishing platform and I don’t like the idea of people turning it into a rocket science. Reading this post makes blogging look intimidating to someone who has never blogged, but it doesn’t have to be that way.

I make a very respectable living blogging and if someone wants to do the same, my advice is to write what you enjoy and magic will happen — don’t get too bogged down with the technology and promotion. If some things sound too technical, hire a teenager who might be happy to help you and all it will cost you are a few gift certificates.

Great job on this live blog. I went to BlogHer and couldn’t decide between all the great sessions. My roomie Stephanie of Metropolitan Mama had a few session to live blog and I saw how challenging it was for her to write a well written summary in such a short time. Nice job!

Wow, so much info that I had to add your blog to my Google Reader. My blog is a new addition to my website (which is also rather new). Thanks for sharing so many tips. Digg has not worked for me, but now I see that’s this is probably because my site is for women. Propeller has worked well for me, but I will definitely check out Kirtsy.
All the best,
Tina

Thank you for posting this recap. I couldn’t go to BlogHer and was upset that I’d be missing out on this session. I bookmarked this post too because I think that there are points that I can use now and in the long term to generate traffic for my blog.

I Stumbled this post for you too.
