I think we're all guilty of any of these points at one time or another. The "Too much “we-we” talk" part especially. I read that you should really be addressing what the reader wants to see. And keeping in mind "how can I help solve the reader's problem?" That has helped me a lot. Excellent post!

I also hate when people who have a portfolio site or maybe a 1-person business site use 'we' language. It totally takes the personality out of it.

I know that I use "we" too much. Its hard not to but makes sense why you should cut back on its use. Nice comments here. I know that I use “we” too much.

Plus, I'm not a big fan of going back and changing old posts. I try to learn from mistakes, and just keep moving forward. Thanks for the comment!

As we are currently looking to start a blog this is incredibly useful, particularly in the attention to details. Your point about encouraging particpation seems really good, as well as the reminder to encourage your community by replying to comments – the community aspect of blogs seems to me to be their most valuable asset, and highlights the ‘natural’ approach as more engaging and productive. -Michael Fantastic post – thanks very much.
