Happy New Year 2010! The New Year Plans
2009 was an important and memorable year in my blogging history, because I started blogging on my own domain and hosting in this year. I started blogging in English in early 2008, but it turned serious in the year 2009.
It is just the rule of nature that after 12 months, a year will be over. We have been watching so since we were born. So, there is no way we can prevent the past from being past. All we can do are analyzing what we’ve done in the past and planning for a better future.
Same to your blogging career.
Maybe the January 1st isn’t your blogging anniversary; still you’re entering into a new year with your blog and you must be planning for something new and better than before. Here are some tips that are right now in my mind that I’m planning to do by myself in the year 2010. You can follow these tips to take your blog to the next level in 2010.
- Unless you’ve got thousands of posts in 2009, you may want to explore each of your post and see how readers reacted with them. You may find a way to improve the way you write or the style you use to format your post body.
- Consider if you need to change your blog’s layout. I don’t recommend changing blog’s look too often, as it may be irritating to some readers. But I do recommend you to change layout or theme in case you think that the change will make it better.
- See the post publishing rate of your blog and compare it with how many active readers or subscribers you have. If you have a pleasing amount of readers, you should consider writing more often. However, if you think that your writings become worse if you try to write too often, then just leave it. To publish posts more often, you can’t sacrifice your quality of writing.
- Try to remember how many ways you’ve used in 2009 to gain visitors to your blog. Most bloggers will find that they left comments, guest posted, exchanged links, etc. Sit with a pen and paper and note down what ways you’ve used to drive traffic to your blog. If you find out that there’s something you didn’t do, you may consider trying that new way of bringing visitors on your blog in the New Year.
- Find more relevant blogs to interact with in 2010. Remember, the more blog-relations you have, the better for your business.
Business? Yes, you read it right. After reading all these, you may be wondering why you should do all these stuff for your blog. Let me remind that as long as you are planning to make some money from your blog, you’re running a business and you are an entrepreneur. So, treat your blog like a small business and try to grow it larger. Hard work and patience will one day for sure bring success to your way.
Wish you all a successful blogging year in 2010!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Start a blog right away! Already have one? Then make it popular!
If blogging and making money with it has been a long cherished dream of you, and if you believe you have time, patience and a topic of interest to blog about, it's time to kick off your first blog with a perfect domain and reliable hosting. If you already have a blog, make sure you have an outstanding premium theme if you run WordPress. Only content may not bring success; creativity and design matter a lot.
If you're looking for a theme with top quality design and custom options that take no time to change your blog into whatever you like, the best would be WooThemes. If your budget is low, try ThemeForest for great quality WordPress themes at an affordable rate.
On the other hand, if you are more focused and serious in blogging, you should go with some framework. Highly suggested framework is Genesis which is recommended by top class bloggers including Chris Brogan. Headway is another alternative at an affordable price. If you have time to spend for blog development and willing to make it extremely customized, Thesis by DIY themes is also in the list.

If you need someone to hand over all the technical stuffs and want to pay attention to content creation only, I'm always at your service. Hit here to find out the services I offer.
Just started a new blog few days ago, and going to start another one. So… it's a very important year for me. I hope 2010 will be a successful blogging year for us.
Happy New Year !!!
Thank you very much for your comment. I wish you best of luck with your blogs. However, I'm keen to know how do you plan to profit from your present bangla blog BigganProjukti? What is your plan?
You know…. a popular blog is an asset. It doesn't matter that, it is making money or not. But I have a plan with this blog. Prothom-aloblog got two sponsors “GP” and “abc Radio”. I hope BigganProjukti will get one. But not sure about that … you know its too hard.
Now please tell me what's plan with bn.biborton.com
We all have realized the power of social media in 2009. In 2010 i have a plan to socialize all my works and myself. Its a great way to get raw traffic and self branding.
Hope will do something good togather.
Well, to get a sponsorship from companies like GP or abc Radio, you have to go a long way. Best of luck for that.
Happy new year and all the best in your journey throughout 2010.
Dear,
“abc Radio” is their own product. So it should not considered as sopnsor. Getting sponsorship from GP is great. Hope if u make your publishing popular you also get one.
Happy new year to you too Sajib; you know Jan 1 is the anniversary of my blogging life and now I've stepped into the 3rd year; 2009 was the best year of my life and hope 2010 will bring something even more
I didn't know that before. So, you've started your journey with a New Year. I'm sure 2009 was so far the best year in your life. (Well, I can guess your income stream of this year
)
Anyway, Happy New Year! I'm glad to see your comment on my blog after quite a long time. Hope you'll be commenting more.
Happy New Year to you too! Blogging is going to be my focus this year
By the way you should check out the plugin “Digg Digg” it would really help you…
And you already know what my focus for this year is. Taking my English to the next level as well as improving my blog.
I'm going to install the recommended plugin. Do you have any tutorial where I can read about the plugin and its use?
Thats great to hear, you could look it up: “Digg Digg” it should be around on wordpress.org with some tutorials.
Thanks, Ben. I'll try to find out some articles about it. However, I remember once I used the Digg Digg plugin but I failed to put up the digg button on the posts I wanted. I really need to check out a tutorial on it.
