What do you do when a blog just isn’t working for you in the way it’s supposed to?
Easy. Drop the blog and start another one.
I’ve got many blogs – some for my own interests and work, and others which I work on for my copywriting clients – and occasionally, it becomes obvious that a blog isn’t working.
Decisions: import your old blog’s post, or start afresh?
You can import the posts from your original blog, but after doing this several times with mixed results, I just start a new blog.
The advantages of a new blog are:
* Your old blog’s post keep their Page Rank
* You save time – it’s easy just to create a final post with the new blog’s URL, so people can find it
* Your old blog may occasionally surprise you when a post or two catches fire, and the blog’s suddenly gathering lots of attention and links.
So if a blog’s not living up to your expectations, don’t mess around. Start afresh. There’s always room for one more blog.
