Bad Blog Tip #5: Pointless Profile

In our series of Bad Blog Tips, we will share with you the most effective ways of creating an atrocious, abominable and otherwise useless blog. Follow these nuggets of wisdom and soon your blog will be more rotten than spoiled milk.

A biography, no matter what medium, is supposed to be a unique expression of you as a person. However, as millions of wannabe probloggers fight for revenue like crabs in a pot, they all seem to be following the same advice when it comes to writing a description of themselves.

Thus, with today’s Bad Blog Tip we teach you just how to come up with a bland profile page. As you know, the “about” page is one of the most visited pages on any weblog. In addition, your social media pages frequently require some sort of bio to complete your registration.

Make it seem that you are über-deep by writing a series of words that you think set you apart as special but are really so mainstream that you just come off as a pretentious, copycat and lazy writer.

For example: mother, painter, blogger, cash money maker, wizard of oz fan, bean enthusiast, trombone collector, free thinker, unique, pompous, windbag, self-important, narcissistic, conceited, interweb marketer, money magnet, wind spirit.

This is just the tip of the iceberg as far as ridiculously lame profiles go. Feel free to experiment until you find what’s right for you. With a little effort, you can ensure that your profile doesn’t stand out and blends in with the rest of the so-called “pro” bloggers out there.
