Challies, yes. Me, no! I agree with DJ about Hyatt’s book. However, the main thing about blogging is to do it for your own spiritual benefit and enjoyment. That will keep you going even when there are few readers. It’s like everything else – you’ve got to do lots of it to begin to get good at it – and I’ve got a long way to go. Read lots of other blogs and find out what works for others.

He literarily walks step by step on how to build an online tribe/ community.

But to put it short, create content that people like, but that no one else is creating. Congregate with people in that niche online (Facebook, twitter, blogs, etc). Writing a free eBook (or in my field a free mixtape or album) will help build an email list. And just serve as a resource to people.

My podcast gets 30K downloads a month and my website 10K Unique vistors. It’s not a ton of traffic, but that’s some of what I’ve done to get there.

But I’d suggest Hyatt’s book if you seriously want to build a platform. I consider him an expert.

Question for you though …it seems easy enough to start a blog, the difficulty seems to be attracting people to it. The celebrities like Challies & yourself are well known already but for those who are not like myself, where does one even start to find their audience?
