If you’ve ever had a successful blog in your life (or any, really), I can almost guarantee one thing:
It wasn’t your first one.
It happens all the time. Somebody gets a blog, and for the first week or two, they’re pretty gung-ho about it: updating it once a day (or multiple times a day), slaving over the perfect reader-friendly layout, compulsively checking the hit count, sometimes even going so far as to buy their own domain name right off the bat (not recommended). Then, the excitement wears off. By the end of the second month, they’re lucky if they can remember to update it once a week.
I guess this really makes out for an awkward, self-prophesying first post.
So… uh… welcome, guys.
