Real Bloggers

I've recently surfed blogs. And found very few worthy of reading (I do not claim to be a good blogger, myself, either). However, about the few good blogs I found, I did not fail to observe what made them stand out; what made them interesting; what made them real. This is what I observed:
  • Effective Expressiveness

These bloggers are capable of effectively expressing their thoughts and opinions. Their descriptions are not repetitive or uninteresting. What they put down makes you want to read on, read more.

  • Likeable Lingo

The words, phrases and other aspects of writing are catchy; unusual; imaginative; creative. So what if they are invented by none other than the blogger? As long as they make reading the post a pleasure, they are a plus point.

  • Cool Candour

If the writing contains some good candour, it really is appreciated by the reader. Nobody is perfect. And candour only emphasises this truth. It is crucial in strengthening the reader-blogger bond. This is one blog populariser!

  • Wit Works

Some blogs are pouring wit! Some others are just sprinkled with some. Either way, wit is instrumental in making a post a good read. Be it sarcasm, humour, embarassment, mocking, any kind of catching-the-reader-off-guard thing really works.

  • Relevance Rules

Whatever be the blog about, the posts must have some relevance; some relevance to the time; to today's world; to the reader. Any kind of rambling is certainly not recieved well. It must be relevant.

Any more suggestions?
