The Bloggers With The Most To Say

What is/was the most difficult part of your blog? Was/Is it the setup? Finding Topics? Gaining readers? I would like to know about your experiences. I am a newbie and am finding the setup to be slow but steady. I don't have many readers that I know of after a few weeks of posts. And I had a hard time thinking of topics at first or was so nervous to write anything but am easing up. I am intrigued by blogging so I would just like to see what everyone experiences.

Ahh..I am a newb too. Gaining readers is tough. Followers is even harder.

My fiance started blogging about 9 months ago...set out to have at least 100 followers by this year. She managed to not only do that, but to get a bunch of free stuff from other bloggers for our wedding. Shes way more talented at this blogging thing than I am.
I've been blogging since November and finding topics is the hardest thing - I'm a student at university, busy with studying and not much else. It's hard to think of something interesting to write about with sounding repetitive! I've started using write prompts for the occasional post, but only if I've not blogged in a while.
hmmmm google analytics.. I'm going to look into that.

Hardest part for me is getting readers. yes... it's pretty tough because most bloggers already have their set of daily blog reads.
the templates! im always fighting with them.
I blog everyday but sometimes I cant even remember what I did yesterday!
but thats just my lousy memory.
I won't consider myself to be a newb. I've been blogging for years, and have been steady on my current for over 2 years now. It started with my film projects in school, but has gone back to my usualness. I'd say it's more like a personal journal for anyone to read. But I have found the hardest part, as well, is to be the gaining readers/followers. But in a sense it doesn't bother me. I write for myself, and if people want to read and follow it too awesome! Sometimes writing is the only way I can get certain things out, and I prefer typing over writing (faster) and to have total strangers see it and comment it, makes me feel pretty good.

I lost myself in there somewhere... eeeeeeh
To be honest, one of my "worries" about my blog is that since I am a lesbian, women will be afraid to read my blog...

Haha, that sounds totally silly, I know. But I worry they'll either think I'm going to hit on them (which I most certainly will not, as I am very happily married Thank You Very Much) or that they'll think I'm going to post... Strange lesbian stuff. Haha! Okay, that REALLY sounds silly. But still...
From one newb to the next- Welcome to the blogosphere!

I don't have any monumental words of wisdom to share based on my own experiences, but I do know this-- blogging shouldn't be stressful. Life has enough problems of its own.

Mmm. I'd say given my current situation, it's difficult to know the difference between venting and complaining. I'm going thru a breakup, and I want to write about it, but I don't want to seem like a weak complainer. I know it's my blog, but I don't want to bore my readers.

Also, sometimes I wish I got more comments. It's hard to know if what I'm writing is interesting if no one if commenting! But I guess that's a struggle for most bloggers.
the hardest is putting my thoughts into words so that the reader understands it exactly as i thought it.

When I want to share a crazy event that happens to me, I have to watch what i say b/c I discovered that my family and my friends read my blog. I'm already paranoid about the gov't and bosses... now I have this to think of. But, sometimes I just say F- it, I'm writing it anyway...
