I’ve heard bloggers writing a single blog post for two to four hours. Boasting aside, I only write mine an hour or two each.
No, I’m not a natural writer. In fact, I’m still having those “Dramatic pause” every minute or so looking for the right word to express my point (That’s because English is not my first language.)
What’s my secret?
Focus.
Do nothing but write the article.
But how do you grab hold of that focus till you finish the article?
Here are my five tips:
1. Turn Off That Music
Do not lower the volume, turn it off!

Increasing Your Feed Readers is Easy! How?!
This article is guest posted by Marko
If you are one of those bloggers “stuck” with 7 readers daily, I can really imagine that you were shocked when you saw the title saying that “increasing your feed count number is pretty easy!” Well, here is a fact for you. Generating more RSS subscribers is pretty easy (and fast) when you monetize your blog the right way! Through my blogging days I saw many bloggers crying for RSS readers without even monetizing their blogs the right way. So in order to stop this invasion I’ve made a list of methods, ALL bloggers should use to grow their feed readers. Don’t wait subscribers to “fall off” the sky… Build your list YOURSELF!
