Blog Design and What We Want Out of Them

There are a number of new styles of blogs around at the moment and the most common thing that I've seen is the way they are being set up.
There is a real drift away from the older style blog similar to this one and thousands of others from a generic blog, to a very sleek style blog that you can tell just oozes money being poured into it!

That's not a bad thing at all but for most of us to try and compete for any sort of 'market share' then we must figure out what it is exactly that we want out of our blog and what we are willing to put in to it.

If I think of what it is exactly that I want out of blogging then it would simply be to have my say and earn the respect of fellow bloggers. No amount of money that I put into the look of my blog will alter what they think of me.

There is always the thought that my blog might take off and start making some descent money but I know that with the amount of time and money that I put into it, that it's pretty unlikely to happen.

I guess the most important thing that I'm trying to say as best I can is that if your looking at making quiet alot of money out of your blog then be prepared to put a fair bit of time and money into it.

You may want to do heaps of research on different types and styles of blogs and be one of the growing many who subscribe to a sleek looking blog designs.

If not, then maybe blogger is the one for you.
