One way that I try keep learning about blogging well and increasing my presence in the blog world is to read posts about blogging successfully. Another is to read posts about things I could be doing wrong. It is really through reading a mixture of both types of posts that I find things I need to change. It also gives me an opportunity to find the things I can pat myself on the back for doing well.
