'Ah, the business blog. Everyone knows they need one, but no one knows what to say on it. My clients moan, "It''s easy for you. You''re a writer. I''m a cake decorator/photographer/project manager/bookkeeper – what on earth can I write about?". Blogging for your business helps attract new customers, and it solidifies your brand for current clients as well.

'Next week marks the 3 month anniversary of Vanessa (my wife) starting her first blog at Style and Shenanigans. It’s been a fascinating process to watch her plan, launch and grow her blog. Some might imagine that being married to ‘the ProBlogger’ means she’s constantly being told what to do and being given secret tips and advice – however I’ve been remarkably restrained in my involvement and very impressed by what she’s intuitively built already.

'A lesson I''ve learned from pitching and negotiating with copywriting clients is that they don''t often articulate what they secretly think. Getting hired (and re-hired) largely depends on paying attention, and you need to have enough initiative and intuition to address those thoughts. They usually make the difference between landing the project and losing the gig.

'This is a guest contribution from Tim Soulo. This year I’ve managed to grow a photography blog by 500% in about 6 months and I think I’ve learned something along the way. I was following five fundamental things that you can learn from any marketing blog, but I like to think that I’ve made a few personal discoveries about each of them. And the most important of all the discoveries is how these five fundamentals unite into one solid strategy.

'This is a guest contribution from Gary Newell. I started blogging almost two years ago and since then, my blog has grown considerably. I have learned a lot in a relatively short period of time and I want to share five of my biggest mistakes so you can avoid falling into the same traps. 1. I didn’t link to my own articles. For well over a year, I would write articles and post them on various news sites and social media networks.
