86 Million Blogs! How To Stand Out In This Crowd

Technorati is currently tracking 86 million+ blogs! Are you lost in the crowd looking for a way to stand out? What you can do today to standout from the pack is discover the benefit you will provide and deliver that benefit to your readers.
First lets quickly correct a mistake that could be holding you back.
Are you an old dog in a world of new tricks?
You’ve heard it a thousand times, “you can’t teach an old dog new tricks.” Do you you believe it? I hope not. Maybe you’re like many people and you’ve been blogging for a while, but you just don’t seem to be making huge strides in reaching the top of your blog niche. Many middle class bloggers believe that there are only a few major blog topics to choose from. While it is true that topics are somewhat limited, what most bloggers fail to do is present their chosen topic in a way that is unique and that takes advantage of their own personal strengths. Identify your area of expertise and turn an oh hum topic into a must read.
What’s your story?
How many professional car and home audio video installers, stay-at-home fathers, award winning chili champs, and talk radio host bloggers do you know? Well you know one now. Nice to meet you. That’s right we all have different life experiences that if utilized correctly they will separate you from the herd.
Make a list of unique facts about you. Here is a short list of unique facts about me you can use as an example.
- have visited 45 of 50 states
- very passionate
- have hosted a talk radio show
- married for 12 years

If I were looking for an idea from my short list for a blog idea or topic idea, I might choose:
- hosting a passionate talk radio show
- meal ideas for stay-at-home fathers
or
By utilizing my unique facts I can now craft a story that stands out from the 86 million other blogs.
Whatever it is you blog about there is a benefit that you can provide that no one else has.
Find your benefit and you’ll be on your way to dominating your unique niche in the blogosphere.

yep but I am a stay-at-home father and I do the cooking. I come up with some great original meal ideas that keep my family’s tummies full so why not share them with the world?
I almost went with a penguin picture but when I saw the fox I knew you foxes would appreciate it.
