Great post and breakdown of things to work on, with the biggest emphasis being on amazing content. In theory it’s simple, but in practice…. But that’s the value we’re giving to our readers, working hard so they have something valuable in their RSS readers.

I liked the post and had this thought while I was reading it: think about how many blogs per day we actually read and continuously check for new content. I’m guessing most people don’t read more than three or four. Now think about how many websites we go back to time and time again.. Again — probably not more than 3 or 4. For me — ESPN, Google, The Onion, Yahoo Answers, and the several blogs I follow. The competition to be a popular blog is fierce.
I think the number of bloggers has reached reached a point where most of the blogosphere is cannibalizing one another, and 1000 or so blogs will continue to vie for the privelage of being the cream of the crop.
Those of us who want to be part of this elite group have a long road ahead. I think the advice is this post is a good start. I would add something very simple, but which can’t be overlooked: always be open to learning something new and adapting.

It is really inspiring to read such post on how a blogger grows his site while reaching all out to his readers. It gives me thought on how I can model on to improve my blogging and site.
