That is so much about what you should do when you are blogging. But in this post 8 Things to Avoid When Blogging, you will learn what to avoid while you are blogging online.

1. Never Post Without First Proof Reading (Be An Authority)

You may say, “I was really gifted with great English”, but the least you can do after spending time to create post is to spend a little more time to check the grammar and spelling of your post content.

A quick way is to use the Firefox browser to type your content as they have a built- in spell checker. You can also copy your content to Microsoft Words to check for grammatical error.

You also could use Windows Live Writer to write posts, it has all features of blogging, using it you don’t have to worry about grammar and spelling problems any more.

2. Do Not Write If You Do Not Have Ideas What To Write

When posting, have a minimum word length about 250 words or more. And
do not post on your blog for the sake of posting. You must remember that
people spend their precious time to read your posts, so your job is to ensure you give them valuable information so that they would come back for more.

A quick way to get more content for your blog would be to go to Google
Videos and grab a 40-minute video clip on your topic. By doing so, you do
not have to write at all, you just have to put a video on your blog, when you really don’t want to write.

3. Do not Copy Content From Others (Avoid Duplicate Content)

When posting content on your blog, please avoid using duplicate content or
copyright content from others. You would be in for trouble when they find out you steals content from them.

However, what you can do is you can take ideas from others and paraphrase them. You will be amazed that most top seller books you see today at bookshops have similar content.

4. Do Not Post Offensive Post

Never post any form of writing that would offend anyone online. This is
especially so if it is someone you know and dislike, online or offline. It is
never civil to show your readers an offensive habit.

5. Never Put Direct Referral On External Hyperlinks On The Same
Window

More often than not, when people read your blog post, they will find
hyperlinks on your post. You should never allow these links to external sites
that are not yours to appear in your blog.

6. Do Not Hard Sell In Your Blog Post

I see this happening many times on many blogs of others who try too hard to sell something on their blogs. They kept explaining why a product X should be bought and insisted it’s the best product out there.

Instead of doing hard selling on your blog, what you should do is to
persuade. A soft- sell approach will be more effective and also gives your
readers some solid content so that they can benefit from reading your blog.

7. Do Not Go Off Topic On Your Blog (Focus On Your Topic)

Writing in a blog can sometimes lead you into talking about almost anything
that comes to your mind. It’s very important, that whatever content which
comes out of your blog has to always be relevant to the topics on your blog.

You do not want to read a stock trading blog talking about cooking, do you?

8. Credibility Is Key In Blogging

Never lie to your readers especially when you are paid to write reviews, tell
your readers it’s a paid review.

That would be all of 8 things, but you know there are other mistakes you may make, like 5 Mistakes That Bloggers Should Avoid and Top 5 Common Mistakes That new Bloggers often Make.
