I recently started asking my clients what are the main struggles when maintaining a blog. What really got my attention was the wide variety of answers I got when I was expecting a common response.
So I thought it would be interesting to ask you. Participate by voting in the poll and giving us your opinion in the comment section.
Don’t forget to comment. Thanks for participating!
Happy blogging.

Sometimes I think where my blog would be right now if I kept a 3 post a week schedule instead of a one post a week.
It causes some pain in my but..lol

Couldn't agree with you more John, that's the difference with being a full-time blogger or blogging for business. I got involved in a couple of big projects that are affecting the time I had to create content…
Thanks for stopping by buddy!

My biggest issue right now is trying to focus on a niche topic within a broad topic of small business. I am a small business coach and what I am really good at is working with a client and helping them solve problems quickly by identifying the critical path they need to focus on to move forward regardless of what business they are in. Trying to find a specific topic around my expertise is what I am having difficulty in clarifying in my head and that will be engaging enough for small business owners. They are my target audience and I want them to call me when they have a problem no matter what it is. I think once I figure that out everything else will fall into place.

Frequency disfunction. I'll have some ideas and jot them down in my journal, bang them out on a Word doc that would be incoherent to anyone else but not spending a few minutes (just a few) often enough to put them into something cohesive and post.
Just one more thing…

I guess I'd love t see more people comment!!
People I know tell me what they think 'live'. Some people comment on the link I put on Facebook.
But few on the blog (well, except for spammers!).
I really like blogs where the comments evolve into a dialogue… like this one!

The hardest thing for me is, traffic. How do you get the traffic to your sites?

That's my problem, too: Finding the time, or more specifically, making my blog a priority. Running a business, taking care of clients, always seems to be more “important”. But if I'm honest with myself, I'd get better projects (and better clients) if I made my blog a higher priority. Thanks for the inspiration and the camaraderie.

For me most difficult thing is keeping your content safe. People copy your content like any thing.
