Blogging tips #0: Introduction

(NOTE: this is part of the “Blogging tips” series)

This is the beginning of a series of blog optimization tips that I’m planning to do here.

I’ve been blogging for more than two years, but I’ve only been doing it “for real” (as in “post more than once a day instead of less than once a week, have more than one “catch-all” blog, etc.) for a couple of weeks.
