I haven’t been able to blog since last 5 months.  Though my passion for writing and sharing my opinions were still the same it’s just that I wasn’t finding enough time to blog.  Why am I writing this?  I could have just started writing  and things would go back to normal but at the same time a thought crossed my mind that there would be a lot of people like me who want to blog but had to stop blogging due to one or the other constraint.

In such cases we would think about a lot of stuff like:

• Is it really worth starting a dead blog
• What happens to my SEO
• What happens to my Google indexing
• My audiences would have stopped waiting to read my post

Many such things crop up in our mind and we starting thinking towards starting a new one or just leave this one behind.   Let me tell you, it’s a bad idea to leave this one and let your effort go down the drain.

First and foremost, it’s your blog – your perception your views about topics that you write about and the points mentioned above really doesn’t matter.  This would matter only if you are a PRO Blogger but if you were then you would never land up in this state.

Restarting to blog is more about mindset than anything else. Most people think of having changes in design or functionality some might improve interactivity of the blog and the other would improve / include social media aspect of the blog. Each one of us is trying to give a reason to the world that why you were absent for this long and why are you starting all over again.

Bottom Line when starting to blog after a gap:

You aren’t starting to write because people want you to write, you are because you are passionate about sharing your perception with the world.

I have approached the whole thing with this mind set and everything has worked out well.

Few things I did before I re-started

• Promised myself that I will post at least once every 15 days
• Informed my personal network to watch out for my blog again
• Used social media to spread message so that people can be aware that I am starting again
