Blogging is all about conversations–reach out to others around the globe who share similar interests and learning from each other.

How do you get people to visit your blog? How do you find people to talk to–to enter into conversations and collaborations?

Here are a few tips:

• Read and comment on other people’s blogs. When you comment, be sure to type in the address to your blog. Other people will read your comments and click on your name to learn more about you.
• Add your blog URL to educational blog lists like Support Blogging and Teacher Lingo.
• Find a niche (what’s your passion? your special area of expertisement?) and share things people really want to know. Avoid just journaling (Who really cares about what you ate or what movie you watched?)
• Use more than just text. Incorporate multimeda elements like images, Vokis, videos.
