Anonymous blogging

A perfect way to overcome the fear of starting something.

Just one more layer to peel off the procrastination onion.

Sooner or later, you’ll realise with over 200 million blogs sites to choose from, that it is unlikely that you’ll be a global hit. Who knows, you may be, but you’ll only be if you share what really matters to you and you say what you really think.

Your voice matters, to you and to others like you, who will find you and love what you have to say. Especially, if you take the risk of being 100% you and saying something that is controversial, something that stands out.

The others who don’t get what you have to say or don’t like it, they don’t matter.

We are not here for everyone, so shout your name out and be proud of what you have to say.

But, if it helps you get started, then hide your name until you get comfortable.

My view is, write for yourself, then you’ll write your best stuff, ignore the comments and stats. Create your best work free from the fear of the critic.

Put your name to your work.

200 million blogs, will my message be seen?

There are 9 million bicycles in Beijing, that’s a fact, well according to Katie Melua’s song. There probably is a few to be fair.

Well looking at stats about how many blog sites there are and apparently, there are approximately 200 million of them.

This generates about 1.5 million posts a day.

Those 1.5 million posts are vying for the attention of 3.6 billion internet users.

There are always enough people to read our posts, buy our stuff, to attract to our message.

The problem isn’t the size of the audience, it’s the message we create and whether it will stand out from the other 1.5 million posts.

Create the right message, keep making it better, consistently share it with the world and be patient, the right people will see it.

After all, we don’t need 3.6 billion people, we just need the right ones.
