Did you know that those simple reminders that mom always told us (over and over again, everyday) since we were kids, can help us become better bloggers? Yes, mothers know best!

Here’s our list of 10 ProBlogging Tips Your Momma Always Told You:

1. Clean your room. The best environment for blogging is one that is clean and well-organized. A clean place helps to clear the mind of clutter. If you blog from the bedroom, isn’t it better if the bed is made and your desk is organized?

2. Finish your breakfast. Sometimes we interrupt meals just to “peek” at blogs. It’s always recommended to finish your meals before they become cold. A healthy blogger is a good blogger.

3. Take a shower. Having a writer’s block? Why not try a refreshing shower or bubble bath, and surely your ideas will flow like water.

4. Never pick a fight. Debating and arguing on blogs is perfectly fine, but when you begin to act like a kid, you lose readers — unless your blog is for kids like you.

5. Don’t eat too much candies. Nobody reads a toothless blogger. Seriously, too much sugar is bad and will give you a hard time sleeping at night.

6. Listen to people older than you, such as those who have been blogging for years.

7. Don’t eat junkfood. Eating junk food while blogging interrupts the thinking process and is bad for the keyboard. In fact, you should not be eating while on the computer because you tend to eat faster than normal.

8. Get some exercise. This is a must for bloggers and for probloggers. Because we tend to spend hours on our desk, we fail to give attention to our physical well-being. Take a walk and get some fresh air, or play basketball or catchball. Your mind will be refreshed and your body will too.

9. Throw out the garbage. Clutter. Clutter. Clutter. Nothing is more difficult than blogging in a messy environment. If you blog from home, it’s always helpful to clear the clutter, throw out the garbage, and clear the kitchen sink.

10. Find a real job. If blogging is a job for you, then there’s no need to find a job outside. But if you need a job, and you’re stuck blogging and hoping that it will give you a six-figure income soon, it’s recommended that you begin looking for employment. Being employed fulltime or part-time will not affect your blogging since you can do it after work, and will give you cushion in the event that your online income drops due to unforeseen circumstances.
