Seven To Ten

What is a blog carnival? Think of an event where a lot of people gather for the fun and entertainment. A blog carnival is not too far away from that.

As a blogger, you need links and in a blog carnival, you will find an array links pointing to blog posts about a niche topic. Usually, there are many editions of a blog carnival, and every week, different blogs will host it. It is easy to participate, as an example, go to the Blog Carnival website, browse around for relevant topics and submit your entries.

This is a simple yet effective method to promote your blog when you are starting out. The carnivals will give you exposure in the form of high quality relevant traffic and back links. Additionally it will also give you the possibility to interact with fellow bloggers.

The more I write on this blog, the more I love it. It is a joy keeping track of my events and knowing that people can see what is going on in my life too, even if they are far away.

We can communicate through comments. I love reading other people’s blogs that I care about and seeing the things that they are interested in and hearing their stories. I love how sites can be personalized, and people can write about whatever they want without getting interupted with someone else’s opinion.

If you don’t like writing, what are the reasons? You can use blogger or wordpress and taking the first steps is easy. I can do it, so can you, just do it…

Today, I spent some time exploring this wordpress blog: customizing the header, checking out the widgets and the other features. The blog theme suit me just fine. I prefer a simple, minimalist style, as they say, less is more.

Time flies even for a simple activity like finding a suitable header to use. I realize there is a lot more to learn to become a part-time blogger. For the time being, I will call it a day.

A lot has been going on in my life. Am currently working in a seven-to-ten construction job and wants to get out of the daily grind. Many conflicts demand attention, hopefully some are resolved soon.

By writing this blog and examining new ways to make money online, I can keep myself occupied and afloat financially.
