People don't read blogs

blog brisbane writerWrong. They do.

In the USA, 25% of consumers read blogs, with14% of them commenting on blogs. More than half (52%) of consumers in Japan read blogs in 2007 and 21% added comments.

The popularity of a blog grows exponentially, with authors of blogs commenting on  others' blogs. People refer to different blogs and link to each other, creating a relationship between readers and bloggers.

Realistically, it can take about three months of consistent blogging to generate a reasonable amount of followers and create a credible relationship. Blogging is not a quick-fix solution to a failing industry; neither does it sell a bad product. You might make a few sales by promoting a product on your blog, but you will lose even more sales when people discover that they can't trust you - and they will let everyone know all about it on their blog.
