Now that I have a lovely blog (in my opinion) the next task that’s eating at me is to keep the content relevant. But how, and for whom? I think this is the root issue behind why I’ve had difficulty keeping posts regular instead of every once in a blue moon. Once I made the decision to redesign my website, I knew that the real reason was because I wanted it done, not because I believed someone else would appreciate it. But because I did it for me, others appreciated it also. The same principles apply to successful bloggers. They develop content that is relevant only to their own passions, and because of that passion, others see it and respond in kind.
Passion begins a cycle that, by its very nature, creates relevance. Once an individual finds a passion, sharing it becomes compulsory and, once shared, it rallies others of the same passion to reinforce and amplify it.
Logically, the next step in this “rebrand” is to generate content that I find passion in, something I’m willing to spend time on, that doesn’t feel like a burden. So I’ve decided on a couple regular types of posts that I’ll be keeping up on: Swipe Saturdays and Type Thursdays.
