10 years ago on April 9, 2010, Google included site speed as one of the all-important ranking factors.

How is blogging in 2023 different from being a blogger five years ago, ten years ago, or more? Each subsequent edition considered the evolution of blogging at the time they were published.

Much is said of the great content that is required to become a great blogger. Great bloggers don’t settle for great content. Great bloggers understand that how you deliver your message is just as important as the message itself. And unfortunately, many bloggers have this down to a fine art. You have to be memorable.

Days elapse, but there’s no sign of your published piece. Bloggers and site editors, especially at top-tier outlets, are generally busy people. Firmly yet respectfully give the site editor an ultimatum — publish the piece by this date or you rescind the right to publication. No emails from the site editor. Why Does This Happen?
