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.我不斷驚訝的絕對數額的人誰也開始在博客的最後一年，所有試圖建立一個聽眾，並提出一些額外的現金，而他們在這。 Unfortunately, most of them don’t seem to get beyond a handful of subscribers and visitors.不幸的是，其中大部分是似乎沒有擺脫少數的用戶和遊客的需要。 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.有各種各樣的原因不能建立一個符合受眾，但下面列表五種方式，將毀掉任何新的博客。

1. 1 。 Making it Personal: 使個人：
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.沒有進攻，但除非你布拉德皮特或安吉麗娜朱莉，很少有人真正關心你的想法或你沒有什麼上週末。 If I were to blog about random things in my life, there are maybe a couple dozen people who would care.如果我是在博客上寫下隨機的事情在我的生活，也許有一對夫婦十多人誰照顧。 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） ，我有一個潛在觀眾數十人。 Determine an area you are expert at (or can become an expert at) and blog on that topic.判斷一個領域你是專家（或可以成為專家）和博客上的話題。 No more, no less.沒有更多，沒有更少。

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個觀眾，然後我建議你有一個博客，是專業和觀眾做好準備。 This means no blogspot domain, but your own (it’s not that expensive, really).這意味著沒有Blogspot域，但你自己的（這不是昂貴的，真的） 。 You should also make sure you have a nice template and have a designer friend to verify this.您也應該確認你有一個好範本，並有一個設計師朋友來驗證這一點。 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.您應該有能力為用戶盡一切收費的標準像搜索，訂閱您的飼料，他們的意見聯繫在一起的名字，以自己的網站，等等現在你可以肯定上述大多數自己如果你是好的，但不'噸嘗試保存幾塊錢而犧牲您的博客看起來像一個高中項目。

3. 3 。 Advertise 刊登廣告
Yes, advertising will ruin a new blog.是的，廣告會毀掉一個新的博客。 I see this all the time on new sites.我看到這一切的時間對新的網站。 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個單位的Adsense ，下屬橫幅等但是當你有一個新的網站，廣告關閉遊客，簡單明了的。 It tells potential readers that you don’t care about them - you just want to make a buck off them.它告訴潛在的讀者，您不關心他們-你只是想賺錢了他們。 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，我知道這是令人興奮的知道，你網站上的廣告，廣告人可能點擊您賺取現金。 But really, is it worth a few quarters a week to turn off most of your visitors in the early stages?但實際上，它是值得的幾個季度一周關閉大多數訪問者在早期階段？ Now once you have the visitors, then you can let loose on the ads.現在，一旦你有訪客，那麼你可以讓鬆散的廣告。

4. 4 。 Neglect to Blog 忽視博客
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週兩次出發，不要浪費您的時間。 This is something I personally struggle with, and have found that my best subscriber surges ALWAYS come during a frenzy of blog posts.這是我個人的鬥爭，並發現，我最好的用戶潮總是在瘋狂的博客帖子。 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.這不僅使當前的用戶，但它會產生更多的內容吸引新用戶，使谷歌更多的內容編制索引，並給你更好的搜索引擎的流量從長長的尾巴搜索。

5. 5 。 Keep to yourself 請給自己
Yes, even in blogging, you have to network.是的，即使是在博客，你必須網絡。 You have to know the players in your industry and you have to be active in the relevant communities.你必須知道的球員在你的行業，你必須積極參與有關的社區。 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.評論對其他博客，參與論壇等我最大的流量湧入這個過去的一周是從評論我離開的一個線程在一個更大的網站。 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!我的第二個最大的湧入過去的這個星期是從一個個鏈接的博客的作者流連在同一討論板作為一所以擺脫在那裡社區和好運氣！
