Ben Means Business

I read a pretty interesting post today over on BloggingTips.com. It was actually a guest post from Mani Karthik of Daily Dose of Internet. The title of the article was the Top 5 Mistakes I Did When I started Blogging. Despite the obvious grammatical inaccuracies in the title, this was actually a good article. There was nothing particularly deep about the article but it was very re-assuring to someone like me who is new to blogging. The author kind of re-iterates many of the things that you already know but does touch on a couple of things that we tend to overlook. In my opinion the most useful point of this article was when the author wrote about selecting a blog template that i viewable in all readers and who's HTML scripts are easy to navigate by search engine crawlers. The latter of those two points is a major one. I am pretty cautious about what codes I place in my HTML template because I don't want to place any kind of code that may make my blog more difficult for search bots to crawl. Anyway, go and check out the article and let me know which parts you find useful.
