Mobile Blogging to Boost Your Blog Ratings
Friday, April 24th, 2009 |
Whether or not you realize it yet, mobile blogging, otherwise known as “moblogging,” is rising as a very popular form of instant blogging that’s set to take the world by storm.
How to Moblog to Boost Your Blog Ratings
Mobile blogging isn’t complicated. In fact, regardless which platform you use, there’s very likely an integrated method to enable blogging to your blog from your cellphone. As you can see from my last post, which I used in this article, I’ve enabled my phone to fire off entries to BetterContent whenever I’ve come across anything exciting or newsworthy.
Just consider the possibilities:
- Journalists can instantly publish pictures and text from breaking news events
- Hikers and campers can keep a live online journal of their adventures
- A whole new niche for traveling novelists
- Private Investigators can instantly publish findings for clients in private blogs
- Families can provide instant updates to each other on family blogs
As a writer, the potential for using mobile blogging in your online writing is unlimited. Moblogging provides creative writers with a new method to publish adventures and travels instantly, as they are taking place. Imagine reading each mobile entry from an adventurer as she hikes through Colorado. Picture viewing images and text from writers traveling throughout the Middle East and providing updates from Islamic societies directly from those villages. And even on a much smaller scale - you can publish updates to your camping blog while you’re on your camping trip, or updates to your travel blog as you are exploring on a safari.
Enabling Mobile Blogging
Google has made it as simple as possible to blog from your cellphone. Read my recently published article here, and in just moments you’ll be publishing updates from your own cellphone. You don’t need a data plan - Google allows mobile bloggers to publish blog updates with simple Instant Messages. It’s simple, and it allows you to update your blog far more frequently - keeping things fresh, and keeping your readers happy.
