Ten Things I Could Be Blogging About That I’m Not (Blogging About)

Toucan, in a treeWhenever I read those goofy, carny “How to Blog Better and Make a Ton of Money of the Unsuspecting and Easily-Led Public” sites, they forever talk about “pillars of content” and how list posts are a great way of getting traffic and generating content and all that nonsense.
