Deep in the Diploma of Web Content lies a nifty little course on Editing Web Content. This one is crucial, because research shows that editing content correctly can double the usability of a web site. Editing is always a step-by-step process. And always you start by asking the big questions, such as: Is this web page really necessary? What is this page for?

This is a guest contribution from Jerry Low. There is one thing that all successful bloggers have in common with one another: Habits. They all have habits that keep them focused and productive no matter what else is going on. They can easily navigate the highs and lows of life and still keep blogging away. These habits force them to focus on things like learning new techniques consistently and seeking new knowledge about blogging, SEO and best practices.

Today’s podcast episode is a little bit different – a throwback of sorts to one of the 31 Days to Build a Better Blog Podcast challenges. I think it’s important to offer challenges like this, as it’s very easy to read or listen to what to do , but actually doing it is a totally different thing all together. In fact, absorbing knowledge without putting it into practise is one of the 21 mistakes I see new bloggers make fairly consistently.
