I don't usually join Private Facebook groups. My purpose for being on social media is for my activity to be Public so that I can get traffic to my monetized blogs and articles. However, I did make an exception and joined a private group of fellow bloggers. The Admin created Twitter and Pinterest accounts. You can share your links in the FB group and they will promote them via social media. This social media marketing arranagement seemed to making my content more visible and sending traffic my way. The best part is … it's FREE.

One of the mistakes I make when I was starting out blogging is to write any content I feel like writing. I believe that's the audience are going to find it valuable. I realised otherwise when no one is coming to my blog. Those who came don't spend much time on the site and I have to do the real thinking.
