While reading Groundwell, I came across the authors' ten suggestions for starting the dialogue. One of which is extremely relevant to me right now.
2. Determine a goal for the blog.
This is an aspect of my blogging journey that I am struggling with right now. As social media students, we have a designated agenda for our blogs this quarter. As a public relations practitioner, I feel obligated to continue maintaining my blog. However, Groundswell touches on a pointless blog defeats the purpose of blogging.
I need the blogoshere's help with this. What do you think I should designate as my blog's goal and direction? Who do I want to attract and what do I want to blog about?
My initial thoughts are to blog about PRSSA, but I think they're elements of my life outside of PRSSA that are interesting and would distinguish me from other bloggers. I need your help bloggers.
I think that Groundswell makes such a strong point when he talks about have a purpose and direction for your blog. I trust his expertise and feelings about this.
So bloggers, help me out! Lay it on me! What do you want to read about? What can I provide you that would be beneficial?
