I am continually amazed at the sheer amount of people who have begun blogging within the last year, all trying to build an audience and make some extra cash while they’re at it.我不断惊讶的绝对数额的人谁也开始在博客的最后一年，所有试图建立一个听众，并提出一些额外的现金，而他们在这。 Unfortunately, most of them don’t seem to get beyond a handful of subscribers and visitors.不幸的是，其中大部分是似乎没有摆脱少数的用户和游客的需要。 There are a variety of reasons for not being able to build a consistent audience, but here’sa list of five ways that will ruin any new blog.有各种各样的原因不能建立一个符合受众，但下面列表五种方式，将毁掉任何新的博客。

1. 1 。 Making it Personal: 使个人：
No offense, but unless you’re Brad Pitt or Angelina Jolie, few people really care about what you’re thinking or what you did last weekend.没有进攻，但除非你布拉德皮特或安吉丽娜朱莉，很少有人真正关心你的想法或你没有什么上周末。 If I were to blog about random things in my life, there are maybe a couple dozen people who would care.如果我是在博客上写下随机的事情在我的生活，也许有一对夫妇十多人谁照顾。 But if I blog about freelancing (which I do), I have a potential audience of dozens of thousands.但是如果我博客的自由工作（我做） ，我有一个潜在观众数十人。 Determine an area you are expert at (or can become an expert at) and blog on that topic.判断一个领域你是专家（或可以成为专家）和博客上的话题。 No more, no less.没有更多，没有更少。

2. 2 。 Cut Costs: 降低成本：
If you really want to build an audience, then I suggest you have a blog that is professional and audience-ready.如果你真的想要建立一个观众，然后我建议你有一个博客，是专业和观众做好准备。 This means no blogspot domain, but your own (it’s not that expensive, really).这意味着没有Blogspot域，但你自己的（这不是昂贵的，真的） 。 You should also make sure you have a nice template and have a designer friend to verify this.您也应该确认你有一个好范本，并有一个设计师朋友来验证这一点。 You should have the ability for users to do all the standard fare like searching, subscribing to your feed, linking their comment names to their own sites, etc. Now you can certainly do most of the above yourself if you’re good, but don’t try to save a few bucks at the expense of your blog looking like a high school project.您应该有能力为用户尽一切收费的标准像搜索，订阅您的饲料，他们的意见联系在一起的名字，以自己的网站，等等现在你可以肯定上述大多数自己如果你是好的，但不'吨尝试保存几块钱而牺牲您的博客看起来像一个高中项目。

3. 3 。 Advertise 刊登广告
Yes, advertising will ruin a new blog.是的，广告会毁掉一个新的博客。 I see this all the time on new sites.我看到这一切的时间对新的网站。 There are 3 units of Adsense, affiliate banners, etc. But when you have a new site, advertising turns off visitors, plain and simple.有3个单位的Adsense ，下属横幅等但是当你有一个新的网站，广告关闭游客，简单明了的。 It tells potential readers that you don’t care about them - you just want to make a buck off them.它告诉潜在的读者，您不关心他们-你只是想赚钱了他们。 Yes, I know that it’s exciting to know that you have ads on your site, ads that people might click to earn you cash.是的，我知道这是令人兴奋的知道，你网站上的广告，广告人可能点击您赚取现金。 But really, is it worth a few quarters a week to turn off most of your visitors in the early stages?但实际上，它是值得的几个季度一周关闭大多数访问者在早期阶段？ Now once you have the visitors, then you can let loose on the ads.现在，一旦你有访客，那么你可以让松散的广告。

4. 4 。 Neglect to Blog 忽视博客
If you can’t blog at least twice a week starting out, don’t waste your time.如果你不能博客至少每周两次出发，不要浪费您的时间。 This is something I personally struggle with, and have found that my best subscriber surges ALWAYS come during a frenzy of blog posts.这是我个人的斗争，并发现，我最好的用户潮总是在疯狂的博客帖子。 Not only does this keep current subscribers, but it will produce more content to draw new subscribers, give Google more content to index, and give you better search engine traffic from long tail searches.这不仅使当前的用户，但它会产生更多的内容吸引新用户，使谷歌更多的内容编制索引，并给你更好的搜索引擎的流量从长长的尾巴搜索。

5. 5 。 Keep to yourself 请给自己
Yes, even in blogging, you have to network.是的，即使是在博客，你必须网络。 You have to know the players in your industry and you have to be active in the relevant communities.你必须知道的球员在你的行业，你必须积极参与有关的社区。 Comment on other blogs, get involved in forums, etc. My greatest traffic influx this past week was from a comment I left on a thread at a larger website.评论对其他博客，参与论坛等我最大的流量涌入这个过去的一周是从评论我离开的一个线程在一个更大的网站。 My second greatest influx this past week was from a posted link from a blog whose author frequents the same discussion board as I. So get out there in the communities and good luck!我的第二个最大的涌入过去的这个星期是从一个个链接的博客的作者流连在同一讨论板作为一所以摆脱在那里社区和好运气！
