Over 800 Blogs in Directory!

Posted by apple on 29th May 2008

Two days ago, Kho King, the founder of BlogMalaysia, mentioned about reaching our target of 800 blogs in the directory before 1st June 2008. I would like to sincerely thank all bloggers who had submitted their blogs to our blog listing directory, which make it possible for reaching our target of 800 over blogs!

Today, our directory has an amount of 809 blogs! Just before 1st June. And of course, to ensure quality links, we have to disapprove some blogs which do not meet the entry requirements. We notice that some bloggers submit their blogs without fully understanding the entry requirements (rules). We will recompose the rules shortly.

Once again, thank you for your participation in BlogMalaysia directory. :D

Avoiding Typos

Posted by apple on 20th March 2008

typoAll of us make mistakes almost every time, including typing. We can type very fast whenever we are going to post something in our blogs. But do you even read once what you have typed?

It is something very common when reading someone’s blog and notice there are several typos. This is a demerit towards the impression of both the blog and the author. Anyone can own a blog and we hardly know who the person is. So, most of the time, we judge a blog owner through his/her words, in other words, the presentation of his/her blog.

Therefore, it is very important for us to avoid as much typos as possible. Your editor may have the auto spell checker. This is a very handy tool and you should make full use of it. Whenever you see a red underline, be sure to double check if that is really a typo. The best way is to preview your post and read at least once to check for any error - grammar or spelling.

Why should we avoid typos?

  • Impression wise.
  • A more professional feel.
  • Avoid misinterpretation or confusion.
  • Giving the correct information. Sometimes a single typo can have different meaning.

This is a really good practice that every blogger should follow. Check your post before publishing it. Keep typo occurrence to the minimum.

Happy blogging. :)
