When is the Best Time to Write a Blog Post?

Are you a full time blogger or doing this on your spare time?

If you're like me who juggles shifting schedules with blogging activities, then it is very challenging.

Simply because blogging isn't just about blog hopping right? If you want the 'hoppers' to keep coming back then you should offer them something new every time they visit.

It all starts with writing a blog post. Yes, for me it should be writing, not necessarily typing your thoughts in your computer.

So with all these things that we need to attend to, here are some of the best moments when we can write our next 'killer' blog post:

Before:

• Opening your email
• Doing blog hopping
• Reading your reader's newest comments
• Going out on vacation
• Answering a paid survey
  
• Checking your Paypal's latest account balance
• Writing a paid post
• Calling your loved ones
• You call it a day
  

After:

• Having a good conversation
  
• A challenging confrontation
• Replying on your reader's newest comments
• Having a hearty lunch
• Writing your latest paid post
• Having a relaxing walk
• Visiting a new place
• Reading an inspiring story
  
• Talking to a customer service representative on the phone
  
• Coming up with other great blogging ideas

How about me?

Well now, I am eating my favorite peanut butter sandwich for breakfast as I am writing this post.

P.S. This is where I would appreciate the best blog writing moments that worked for you. ;)

Warn Plagiarists with Copyscape

Do you really want to make money online? If you do, then make sure to come up with an original content on all your blog posts.

I've been into personal blogging since 2003 and professional blogging since March this year. Everytime I write a post, I am thinking of my blogging purpose. That inspires me to put my heart and make the most out of blogging about my ideas.

That's why it really bothers me when I read posts from bloggers about their content copied entirely by another blogger. This unjust act just under utilizes the copycat's intellect.

This brings me to check out Copyscape. You can place the banner on your blog to warn plagiarists from copying your content. You can also take advantage of their paid service so you can be informed right away if these copycats did a bad job again.

All of my blogs have these banners from Copyscape. How about in your blog?

I Made 300 Entrecard Drops Today!

I'm very happy to share with you that I'm working little by little to promote my newest baby. One of my means to promote it in the blogosphere is thru Entrecard.

I know I missed the returning your drops lately. So if you've been dropping here for sometime now, you may check your drops inbox and you'll see my 125x125 card parking right there. ;)

If you're reading this and you're just starting to promote your blog traffic, try Entrecard. The Love Drops really work because:

• You can visit and read a lot of blogs in a day
• You can build a relationship by leaving quality comments on their posts
  
• You can earn EC credits for each visit that you do on their blogs and;
• You can also get some more EC credits when they returned your visit

There are a lot more ways to benefit from using Entrecard to promote your blog. I'll discuss some more issues with Entrecard on my future posts.

But I gotta hit the sack for now. If you just read my previous entries, you'll notice that this is my fourth in a row for today. I still have a lot of ideas to share but I also need to report to work tomorrow. Yes, I still have a regular job to attend to so I need to rest now.

As The Online Diva says:

"Time really flies when you're having blogging fun!"

Chat with The Online Diva!

If you've been reading my previous post, you already know that this is one of my newest baby blogs. Well, since I've started some of my other blogs six months ago, I never had the chance to blog about how my boyfriend and I developed our blogs because it's definitely off topic or because we just forgot to post about it.

That is why I'm very excited now that I already have my chat box up! I purposely did not upload one in my earlier days because I still have to build some more content and build relationship with other bloggers (to also promote this blog). I don't want to upload a chat box with an empty space after a week or so because of fewer visitors. But now, I feel the need to upload one because I received some email comments about not having one here in the blog.

Now that I have it up, I hope you'll leave your mark by typing a message on the chat box. Of course, I'd love to read your comments as well on some of my posts here.

Pink Asus Eee PC: My Blogging Friend

This is my Pink Asus Eee PC and I love it! It has been my blogging companion for months and I really love how this little laptop makes me feel all powered and ready to blog anytime, anywhere.

I bought this last July before I went to Davao. I read all over the blogs that Davao City is bloggers haven because almost all establishments have FREE WiFi. I stayed there for a month and updated all my blogs using this little notebook friend as I stayed in some coffee shops. My blogging continued even if I was inside my hotel room because of their FREE WiFi service. ;)

My former best buddy Desktop was that jealous (well I guess) that it started to slow down amidst all the scanning efforts I made to check if it has a virus or just because of old age. ;)

I still love my Desktop but my mobile Asus Eee PC friend is here to stay.

WiGO did not Go for Linux Users

There's really a big difference between the information that you read online versus the experience that you will get once you're there.

I said this because of my experience yesterday. I was in CBTL Eastwood all day. Well aside from my supposed to be blogging strategy meeting with my boyfriend, we intend to have another venue to write our posts in all of our other blogs in that coffee shop.

Before going there, I read a lot of stuff online on how Eastwood City is one of the WiFi cities in the Philippines. A lot of other bloggers also had a list of WiFi ready establishments in Eastwood City so I thought I'll be making the most out of the connection there, or so I thought.

When I went there, I immediately searched for the WiFi access in the area (while waiting for my Eggs Ben order) and so I saw three connections, two from WiGo and there's another one but I forgot the name of the source. I immediately tried to establish connection. Their homepage went up the screen and prompted me to register. I was about to download their toolbar when I got this message on my screen:


There you go, the toolbar is only available for Windows and Mac users. I also heard the same negative comments from other customers inside CBTL Eastwood because just like my boyfriend and I, they're also Linux users and cannot access WiFi thru their service.

Well I just hope they'll do something about it because there are also a lot and growing Linux bloggers out there who might get the same frustrating experience. By the way, after this post, I'll send an email to their Marketing Director Russ O. Alfonso to inquire and clarify about that issue. I hope I'll receive the reply the soonest time so I can share the information with all of you, especially Linux bloggers here in the Philippines.

But for now, I have to rely on my good, old, ever reliable blogging notebook whenever I will plan to blog in that area again. ;)
