I looked at blogs but I like to publish my pictures along with my ramblings and I didn’t see that kind of thing integrated in the blogs that I found.  I already know how to do it in Word and I have another tool if I want to publish a lot of pictures with just a little verbiage so I decided against a blog.  The number of hits that I get goes up dramatically when I post a trip report.  How to translate that into purchases, ahhh…   If we new that secret we wouldn’t have to do anything but garden or visit them.

 

Re:  your name.  Sorry this is a question to answer a question.  Is identifying you by name an important part of your business?  If it is, you should use your identification consistently.  If that includes your last name, (and the blog is motivated by business interests) you need to use it.

I've posted this on both GWL lists with hope it starts up some conversations. This topic might have been touched upon in the past but now I'm paying attention and then I wasn't.

 

This morning I spent about 2 hours creating a blog. Hopefully it will become the place I can spill my guts, talk about my garden, lust about new plants and eventually use as a stepping stone to further my career.

 

It would have been nice to read some garden blogs before I posted mine but did not come across any in my tentative search. If you have a blog please let us know about it. Has it helped your business? How often do you post? Is there such a thing as posting too much or too long?

 

Most importantly, should I have my full name shown?

 

Thanks in advance,

Melanie Vassallo
