Ten good reasons to write a blog

I am sure that there are several great reasons to write a blog. Let me see if I can list ten good ones right off the top of my head:

1. It will sharpen your writing skills if you write every day. Who knows, you might might even become a decent writer.

2. You could become famous, like other bloggers. I can't name any famous bloggers, but I am sure that they are out there somewhere.

3. Of course with fame comes money. You could blog to be rich. You could get really rich, really slowly, by writing once a week, or once a day, or once an hour!

4. You could meet some cool new people. You might even get some people to your blog. It would be cool if people subscribed to this blog!

5. You might make a difference in the world. I am not quite sure what this difference will be, but I think it would be really cool if you did make a difference to someone in their life.

6. You can write a blog to kill time. (not that time has ever done anything to hurt you) This will be better time spent rather than twittering or completely goofing off.

7. You can write a blogs so that your can have a voice. We all want to have a voice from time to time, so a blog gives you a forum to have that voice.

8. It's hip to be a blogger. Everyone is doing it. Tila Tequila had over 1,000,000 subscribers to her lame blog. I can't say that I will have that many subscribers, (nor will I stoop to the level of skanky women) but two or twenty who read my blog would be cool.

9. You want to blog in a way so you can can build a following using social media like Twitter or Facebook. Social media is NOW and I think that many bloggers miss the boat when it comes to networking on social media.

10. Blogging is fun!

So there you have it....that is my list. I think it is a good start from right off the top of my head. I want to know what you think. What are some reasons that you blog?
