A Plea to Paintball Blogs Everywhere.
Don’t suck. Oh, wait, more accurately, try to be professional, descriptive, opinionated, and well-written. Here are some tips for writing a good (paintball) blog.
1) Check your grammar. Nothing screams 13-year-old-n00b like bad grammar.
2) Come up with original stuff, not just news copied and pasted from another paintball site.
3) Play as much as possible. By participating in that which you are blogging, you create more opportunities for ideas to swim about your head.
4) Explore different angles of your subject. There are about a thousand different fields of paintball to discuss, so don’t just focus on one (unless you can be excessively in depth).
5) Promote your blog by telling other paintballers and bloggers about it, but don’t spam. Spammers go to hell.
6) Contact me. I want to know about more paintball blogs that are well-written and that I can network this blog with.
7) Don’t be afraid to voice a little opinion. This is what truly brings a blog to life, the voice its writer infuses within it.
I just want to see more respectable paintball blogs. So all you aspiring bloggers out there, go ahead and give it a try, just don’t make it a waste of your time!
