About Content Smatter
Wednesday, May 2, 2007
Content Smatter was originally supposed to be a blog/article site about the contents of your blog. But then that didn't really work out the way I had hoped to when I first opened Content Smatter. So I morphed it into a directory of all the blogs that were at The Weblog Review and allowed people to add their own.
Unfortunately the directory turned into a total bust. Spam sites became very popular with Content Smatter. Every day hundreds of people would submit their site and since there was no approval process, their site was auto listed.
Life kind of hit a snag and I stopped posting to The Weblog Review. But recently things have picked up and I am reviewing sites again. In my first week back I have seen numerous errors when it comes to blogging. And I have posted about these errors in the reviews. However I remembered I had this little site which was supposed to help people improve their blogging.
Now don't get me wrong, I am not a writer at all. I do not have an English major and I didn't study to become a journalist or an author or anything that actually me writing down words in the English language. I am a web developer who just happens to blog and loves all things blog related. So from time to time, there will be a new article on here explaining how to improve your blog.
