If you are thinking about spiffing up your a blog a bit, it may make sense to add sound and/or graphics to your blog. You may want to consider this if you have either a personal or business blog. Both types can normally be improved with judicious use of audio, pictures and video. You may consider adding a picture or two of yourself, or some pictures of the products you are selling. Pictures of yourself tend to personalize your blog and build relationships with your readers faster.

Depending on your blog configuration, you may need to know a little bit of HTML to get the codes installed. It’s possible you can get by with come copy and paste instead of HTML knowledge.

In addition to sound and pictures, you will want to consider other things, such as a blogroll and link lists, both to provide valuable information to your readers and to monetize your blog. These items should all be related to your blog’s main topic or subjects.

It is important that you are careful not to overload your blog with video and/or audio. Too much and you will draw your readers away from the important writing you have placed on the blog. You don’twant so much audio and video that it becomes distracting to your readers. The amount is a decision only you can make.

I am sure that you, like me, have been to blogs that had so much side-bar stuff that it was impossible to focus on the blog itself. Overload yours and that is exactly how it could turn out. When it comes to everything outside of your blog posts, less is better.
