What ever said in this article is absolutely correct… To get the most from blogging you need to have a full control over your blog. Free Blogging platforms like wordpress and blogspot can’t help you in this. You need to have a hosting package so that your blog will be in your control. Only having a blog and doing SEO can’t give you the expected profit. There are more things you should worry about such as website performance, its speed of web page loading. Your uptime and downtime are the major issues people face nowadays. Due to this you may lose your valuable visitors.
The Do’s and Don’t in your blogging guidelines was really basic and every blogger should know that. Because it shows the netiquette in your personality for being a blogger and reader. I recommend this to be included in the terms and conditions if you want to blog.
