I got serious about my blog in 2010, and write for several national websites and blogs that represent the areas I want to be known for. This blog, this team and content is important to me. The blog format and vehicle is important to me and according to all the latest 2011 research from Technorati's Blogosphere, blogging continues to be a hot trend that is just getting started and for good reason. It can build your brand and propel your clout and authority to the top of your field fairly quickly. Content creation and content marketing are only at the beginning. We are officially a "content generation" world, so get on the train and ride with us.
