I just came across it today and I was thrilled. Mostly, because I've been already doing a lot of what you mentioned in your article (and that makes me feel like I'm on the right path) and also excited to receive sage advice from an established veteran who is simply sharing his experience. I don't know who it was in an earlier comment that said most new bloggers will never see the post. Whoever he was, he was wrong. New bloggers who are excited and passionate about their impending unchartered adventure as a blogger will be scouring the Net, much like myself, to find out as much information as possible to create a successful launch. Thanks again for your article. Please keep creating pieces like that. They're needed and taken seriously by serious newbies:) Best, Derrick Hey,

Most blogs with many submissions a day have a team of writers (like this one) 2. Search rankings can decay over time unless you keep growing the number of inbound links.

I do have more questions now. A fellow blogger said one of the best ways to increase page views is to produce. He said his site has posted an average of 70 posts a week. Is that average or necessary for a good web page? I've also noticed that as I get more blog reactions to my site, it seems harder to find my on a google search for North Dakota Bismarck blogs. Is there a correlation here, or is it all in my mind? Thanks! Thanks for the e-mails. I do have more questions now.
