Want to know the secret behind blogging success?

How to get thousands of readers?

Ten thousand subscribers?

It’s easy.

Write quality, original stuff about things that people are interested in.

Want proof? Check out Maki’s latest post on gaining 10,000 RSS subscribers, and you can see how he did it. I have to offer my congratulations as I’ve been a long time reader (and all too infrequent commenter!) pretty much since the start and can vouch for the fact that there’s never been any gimmicks, competitions or fake controversy.

Just thoughtful, well researched  quality information, plain and simple.

There’s no doubt that you can make money or grab some fleeting fame by riding the coat-tails of a passing fad, courting controversy or hitting all the key words, but to lay down solid foundations you need to know what write about, care about it and get that to come across in your writing.

On the plus side, if posting less frequently is a key to success, I’m well on the way to fame & fortune ;-)

Nice one Maki, and here’s to the next 10,000.
