2 min readWeb logs (blogs) are a rapidly growing and powerful form of communication. They seem to have captured the interest of the world, even though their content is subjective. Media agencies have realized the power of this trend by allowing their news websites to gather comments from bloggers on every topic, from current affairs to food.

I started my blog in 2008 and have been at it ever since. Learned a lot over the years. I write everyday, usually first thing in the morning. I didn’t always write everyday, but since I have kept journals writing long hand for over 30 years, it has now become an important and essential part of my creative process and practice as a visual artist/painter. I don’t worry about what I am going to write about now. I keep my ears, eyes open, and let my subject matter come to me. I don’t force it.
In addition to these ten proven ways to improve page rank, you should also consider the power of advertising. By creating a simple banner and advertising with it on other sites, you can generate a lot of good backlinks which in turn creates more traffic for your page. Keep in mind that you should be active daily when it comes to blogs and forums that are in your niche as well.
