I am newbie blogger and I have some mistakes, because of these mistakes I almost quit blogging. Here are some 5 of it
1. No goal
2. No Promotion
3. writing for myself
4. I didn't buy my own domain and still using ".blogspot.com"
5. My mind on the money

I still write for myself, BUT I keep the rest of my audience in mind. I'll not spend money on the blog if its not profitable, I have no money to spend anyways. And my mind definitely isn't on the money, but it would be nice if some just came along.
I'm still using .blogspot and I don't find a problem with that. In fact, I have come across many very popular blogs which still use .blogspot
but the disadvantage of having .blogspot.com in your domain is, it is still owned by google, they can remove your blog anytime
hardly think writing for yourself is a mistake. To have passion to write and to keep writing, you must first like what you're writing and have interest in the topics you are covering.
Money generally only comes in after you've garnered a good following and that should only come at a later part when your blog has been more established.
Nah, those are past. I am done avoiding those mistakes, except for number 4.
anyway, removing .blogspot in your domain name makes your site look cooler and professional that is why I wanna remove those.
writing for yourself is cool, if it is a forum type of blog in which people exchanges opinion and beliefs to a certain topic
I will stick with my current plan of attack :-) it is very effective my ranks climbed up faster than any of my past blogs.. my SEO score based on webtarantula has improved also...so I am on the right path .. I think :-)
Still using blogspot, I think it's not a mistake. It's a stepping stone..hehe
anyway, my mistake is I don't take blogging so seriously though I wrote some tutorials. :P
I am also still using blogspot
Take famous bloggers like xiaxue she has a blogspot domain. ;D
