If you’re new to blogging (or even if you’re currently running a blog), you’ll no doubt have some things that you need to address on your blog, as no one’s perfect.
That’s right, not even me! 
That said, there are certain measures that you can go to that will no doubt improve your blog, and this article will discuss some of those points.
1: Install Wordpress:
Wordpress is THE best blogging platform out there – no exceptions. It’s extremely easy to use, is very customisable (with all the plugins and themes that are now widely available) and is also completely free. If you’re serious about your blog, then Wordpress is the only real option when you put it back-to-back with competitors, and, without it, the rest of these tips aren’t very helpful.
2: Comments:
Every blog should have comments. If you aren’t getting comments on your blog, you’re something majorly wrong. I could go into a load of detail and write a whole article about how to get comments, but I don’t have time, plus it’d probably start getting boring, so I’ll give you my top two ways. Firstly, install the ‘Top Commentator’ widget and The Comment Luv Plugin, as these both add an incentive to commenting. The second is to leave comments on other people’s blogs. You’ll soon find that the majority of bloggers will comment back, and, if they don’t, stop commenting on their blog.
3: Askimet:
Askimet is a great plugin for Wordpress that I would recommend to every blog in the planet. It basically controls all your spam comments for you and segregates them. If you are receiving a lot of traffic or comments then you’re bound to get at least some spam, and Askimet does all the hard work for you so that you can focus on answering the good comments.
