1731st BLOG POST -->>
The way of communicating with an
audience is changing gradually since years and there have been new players in
each of the mode that becomes prevalent according to the contemporary time.
Earlier, people had only radios to communicate then came television. Post
television became prominent, new terms of communicators started getting
invented such as VJs, hosts, anchors who started influencing people with their
shows. And finally, Internet entered and the whole dynamics of communicating
changed. Earlier it started with digital magazines owned by an institution
which got its own revolution where a person started speaking by himself through
his own website which gave a new term to the mankind- Blogger. And the latest
book that I have just completed reading is about how a person can enrich his
blog and increment his performance as a blogger written by Mr. Anuj Tikka named
“Blogging For Gold”. The book also has the tagline that says “A to Z of
Blogging”.
The book is divided into 60
chapters which sounds like 60 tutorial classes being given every day on how a
person should approach Internet as a blogger should and ensure that his efforts
does not go into vain but he is able to earn something out of it- both
monetarily and personally. I am glad that people like Anuj Tikka exists who
rather than keeping their findings on how to make the craft successful with
themselves spread it with their contemporaries ensuring that everyone grows
together in a field that can provide lot of opportunities to both- the creators
and the audiences. Anuj has written a really no-nonsense book keeping all the
chapters and advices crisp with no diversions or non-clarity in thoughts. You
can only bless him after reading this book as I, myself, being a blogger since
last 10 years learnt a lot from this e-book which is written by someone who has
explored the field for just 3 years.
The author has not only given
tips on how to increase the readers, subscribers and views on the website but
also given solutions on how to write better contents and how a blogger can go
beyond just blogging. Not only has he spoken about the benefits one can get by
just being a Blogger but taught how a person can earn through integrating their
portal with other social media platforms, similar blog sites, affiliate
programming e-commerce websites etc. The book opens a great dimension for a
person looking out for being a Blogger letting him know the various options he
has to explore and convert his hobby into a full-time stuff. Not only talking
about just Blogging platform, author has also discussed about being a Youtuber,
content creator, self-published author, story-teller, social media influencer,
collaborator and what not.
The book is very impressive with
its well research and self-experienced content. Though I would like to point
out few drawbacks over here- The author has in some places just given
references of what to be done but does not give a descriptive solution of how
it needs to be done. Secondly, the chapters are not divided into sections which
has scattered the chapters belonging to the same subject across the book which
confuses the reader if he has completed knowing everything about this one topic
or he might get a chapter afterwards on the same stuff. Third and the last, I
believe author ended up repeating the same thing quite often to ensure that the
reader remembers the same but it becomes monotonous after a point of time. It
could have been wonderful if author could have given a summary of all the information
in the end as Important Tips that the reader could keep it with himself to
refer in future.
Overall, this is a great book for
people wanting to create some stuff online and share with people or get
popular. I give this wonderful effort 4 star out of 5. A must read.
Thanks.
