The Equity Kicker: The declining importance of blogs

    Nic

    Fully agree with your findings. I started blogging in 2006 and used to proudly display the title of "blogger" on my business card. Now I am a micro-blogger on Twitter and find it hard to motivate myself to blog at my usual site www.manojranaweera.com. I also maintain blogs at http://www.nwstartup20.co.uk/blog and http://www.edocr.com/blog. All need more love. regards Manoj

    Check our posterous.com

    So simple.

    I use tumblr for very specific purposes - to back up my real world meetings/presentations with in depth information. I also use my delicious account for the same purposes. Neither have spaces for comment - which is where posterous may have the edge.

    Otherwise commenting on other people's blogs is a good activity!

    "Google traffic is more important than blog traffic"

    Q. Why does Google send traffic to particular sites?

    A. Blog content.

    I guess we should be writing equally for both

    1. visitors
    2. for the long tail of search.

    I find "My Blogs" on facebook (http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id...) works quite well as it puts something on my profile whenever I write a blogpost (not often) and as a result most of the very few hits I get on my blog have come via facebook.
