Today's Quick Tip....
Does your blog seem to lack a sense of purpose? If so, it's extremely unlikely that it will ever become popular and attract a lot of readers.
And trust me, I know from personal experience how frustrating that can be.
In my humble opinion, the best way to give your blog a true sense of purpose is to use it to help people.
Truth be told, the entire purpose of my Rick's Daily Tips Tech Blog is to help people solve their tech problems and provide the info necessary to stay safe and be productive on social media.
That's it - nothing else. And so far it seems to be working.
Helping folks gives me the satisfaction that comes from (hopefully) doing some good in this world while also allowing my blog to grow and flourish.
To me, that's the ultimate win-win situation.
Give your own blog a sense of purpose and you'll be able to enjoy all the wonderful fruits of blogging that you so deeply desire.
