I hear this question many times by people at many forums. Most people who ask this question are either internet marketers who don’t know much about blogging or it is a blogger who doesn’t know much about internet marketing. Not that these people are newbies to internet but they are new to either of the two. Everyone starts like that. In fact, a year back, I didn’t know about both and later when I knew about them, I got confused on which one to use in my new blog.

One question that comes up quit often is, how do I get people to follow me on Twitter? It’s actually…
Having a clear idea of who the ideal reader is for your blog’s content might be just what you need to take your blog up a notch. If your blog is new, I know you might be thinking I’ll take anybody I can get! But hear me out. Read through the whole post, and then decide for yourself if you think the idea has merit.
