What is Moblogging
Moblogging is short for mobile blogging. Simply put, it’s when you publish blog posts directly from your cell phone or handheld device, without the use of a computer. Moblogging isn’t a new concept. It’s been around since text-enabled cellphones hit the market. However, a lot of people are still blogging the traditional way and using their cellphones for text and Twitter.
Why Use Moblogging
The top reason people blog inconsistently (or stop blogging at all) is lack of readership. Interestingly, the top reason for lack of readership is inconsistent blogging. In blogging, what you write is important, but it doesn’t trump the importance of how often you write. History rewards the most prolific writers among us (wink wink, Stephen King). Of course, what you say is important, but blogging is about sharing the journey. Readers must be constantly regaled with your stories and insight and amazing photos or else they’ll simply lose interest and head off to next blogger who’s updating more frequently.
Moblogging helps you maximize your time. Make use of the dead spaces in the day to quickly blog your thoughts or the things you see. Those moments spent in abject silence as you wait in line at the restaurant or commute to and from work are the best moments for you to blog. Here are a few reasons why you should be doing it:
You are more likely to update your blog.
You feel good about spending time away from your computer.
A sense of immediacy in your posts.
Your audience is more connected to you.
Your audience is motivated to check your blog more often for updates.
