Default Is Steve the worse blogger?

Thought I would ask if any one post's less on their blog then Steve, he has it in his signature and every time I click the last post was in March!

Default git!

ha ha! It's true I do struggle with it.

It needs to be moved to a proper domain, it needs to be updated reguarly, but i am coming to the conclusion, looking at the stats, that its more trouble than its worth! It currently has minimal SEO value, and probarbly detracts value from our professional business rather than add to it.

I waffle on the forum every day, but can never think of anything decent to blog about!!

Maybe I'll kill the blog, but its is handy on other forums which use a blog feed, so yours shows up (cant find the plugin, as I'd like to do it here).

Jurys out, breathe life into it, or let it fizzle pop and die......

Ooh, loads. I sort my blogs out using Google Reader and it's amazing how often someone I'd forgotten about suddenly pops up with "sorry I haven't blogged for over a year..."

Someone I follow on Twitter last tweeted "Going offline as one of my widgets reports a thunderstorm approaching!!! Need a cuppa anyway."

Which would be fair enough, but that was July 2007.

I think that his how most feel about blogs they get started and never really developed (by most people) I use them purely for seo purposes.

I also think a blog that is not updated for a business is worse because you think does the business still run etc.

Fantastic idea wish I thought of that - do you mean actually post for your blog Steve?

lol, may be a PR of 0, but I only want a Marsbar for it

I dunno, absolutely no idea what to do with it. It's actually on the to do list to sort out, but theres too many more important and interesting things to do before it!

Hardly war and peace Steve!

Having been 6 months from your last blog I was expecting a real treat, asked the kids and wife to leave me for half hour whilst I fully digest your thought provoking insight.

hmm
