There are several ways that you can destroy your own blog. It might be a slow and gradual demise; or perhaps sudden and decisive.
- Become boring. Talk about yourself, and nothing else, in the most tedious way possible. Leave no detail unturned.
- Post rarely. Let entire glacial epochs pass between those posts about your choice of socks.
- Never link to any other blogs. After all, none of them have cool socks like yours, to keep their feet toasty warm, during those chilly ice ages.
- Have no comments available on your blog. Why let anyone discuss socks and glaciers when you do it so much better, if somewhat less frequently. Anyway, who’s counting?
- Don’t comment on any other blogs. They will be extinct after the thaw, and will have worn out their socks by then anyway.
- Don’t submit your posts to any blog internet carnivals. Those other bloggers will only steal your socks, and pack them in ice, leaving you with cold feet.
- Only sell your products on your business blog. There is no need to provide information about anything; just your products. They are the best, just like your cool sock selections. Everyone knows that.
- Never submit your blog to the free blog directories. You don’t want your blog to be contaminated by contact with those other icy and sockless blogs, and the visitors they might attract.
- Don’t post on any forums or message boards. Your opinions on foot coverings and ice, are much too valuable to waste on others. They might even have the auadacity to post back about your genius ideas.
- Accept nor send any e-mail regarding your blog, or any of your posts. Just give them an icy stare and wave your dirty socks at them.
That should kill off your blog.
Fast.
Don’t worry, you can always claim extinction.
Just like the wooly mammoth, which did little to adapt either.
