Hot:

I was surfing the blogosphere looking for some great content to brainstorm for my blog and I ran into this blog post on problogger.com by Mark Hayward title “How to Blog When Your’rs Not a writer”

This title caught my attention as I am relatively new to blogging and I don’t consider myself a writer in any regard.

In this blog post Mark gives a great guide that non writers can use to help them get up and going with their blog.

    Hi Kyle! I really appreciate you writing on this as it's been floating around in my head since I started blogging too. I love that you give an alternate option for non writers because video blogging and photo blogs can be very compelling as well!

    One additional tip I could offer would be to list out things you want to communicate to your audience, just type, get a list of a dozen or so topics of things you will eventually cover. This helps you for the next time you get writers block or are lacking motivation. You will never run out of ideas. Title this document “What to write next” and don't publish it. It will always be waiting for you under recent drafts.

    Cheers to the blogging experience ;)

    Hi Kyle – thanks for your interest in this post from ProBlogger – however can I ask that you don't republish our full posts. This kinda goes against our copyright and more importantly for both of our sites potentially can hurt our rankings in Google as it becomes duplicate content (which they try to eliminate from their index).

    Generally we encourage people to take a quote or two from the articles we write, link back to the full article and add a few comments of your own…. rather than just republish our stuff in full. Otherwise the web just becomes full of the same stuff over and over.

    I like the 'quote', link back and add your own opinion approach better too because it adds value and builds the conversation – ie I'm sure it'd be much more useful to people if you pulled out some of Mark's main points, added some of your own experience, perhaps posed a question etc….. rather than just republishing his thoughts again.

    Hope this comes across as ok – for me its less about 'copyright' and more about trying to make the conversation more useful without hurting anyone's place in Google.

    Thanks Darren for pointing this out to me and I didn't know about problems it would cause to our sites and google. This is definitely a learning lesson and I appreciate you to reaching out to me on this before to much time has past.

    I will revise this posting as suggested..thanks again and you can jump on my blog anytime and give me blogging tips Darren…you are the man my friend. I love what you are doing on ProBlogger…thanks again.
