What is the reason you have begun blogging? For me it is to make a little money showing people what I know about making a little money on a website or blog. It’s purpose is to do that in a way that is hopefully entertaining and useful to my visitors. This is stated pretty clearly in my Blog’s Mission Statement.

There are three things that happen when you know your blog’s purpose:

  1. You don’t go off on tangents about places you want to see before you die as often as you do when you know what you should be writing about.
  2. You’ll attract the visitors who want to read what you’re writing, instead of distract them from the real message.
  3. You’ll be able to set up the right kind of advertising that will fit your blog like a glove, and therefore make you money.

That’s three pretty good reasons to know the purpose of your blog. Write it out and stick to it!
