In today’s CCLiveChat we got a crash course in blogging courtesy of Gavin Ward. Gavin is Operations Director at Moore Legal Technology. A former commercial lawyer, Gavin is responsible for ensuring that an excellent service is provided to clients and in particular that online business generation strategies are developed and executed to get the best possible results i.e. to get more of the highest quality online enquiries for clients.
Before qualifying as a lawyer, Gavin also established a guest legal blogging service to help lawyers and legal professionals from around the world to publish and share their legal knowledge and news within law blogs (‘blawgs’) more effectively and to get found online. Gavin was also a former tutor of private law and moot judge at the University of Glasgow and a tutor of commercial law at Strathclyde University.
Gavin touched on mistakes bloggers make, themes, keeping the blog fresh, quality content, spam, monitoring comments, captcha, Akismet and more.
In the end, we found we had not touched on all topics yet so Gavin suggested a future chat about blogging. Then we will start with search engines/SEO.
Jacques Soudan also discussed SEO here o DCC: “There are 3 search engines (SE) that matter: Google, Yahoo and Bing. Together they provide 95% of traffic to sites – Google obviously being the massive gorilla – between 70 and 90% of traffic comes through them – you better stay friends with them (whether it is a good thing that one party dominates the market is a whole different (consumer) question …). Those engines use up to 200 variables (algorithms) to calculate rankings in a secret formula – clearly, the main one being …. content. Which makes complete sense – you’re not only a blogger, but also a user: you want the fastest and best answer to your query (you will even change search engine if you feel you don’t get the right answers any longer).”
The verbatim text is below.
See you at the next CCLiveChat!

| LilacLounge | @Vidocq_CC that's a shame. I'm eager to chat about blogging though. My blog could certainly do with some attention! #cclivechat | Fri, 11 Nov 2011 17:01:02 +0000 |
| Vidocq_CC | If you check Gavin's twitter account you see all the blogs and websites he runs. And he runs them successfully! #cclivechat | Fri, 11 Nov 2011 17:01:23 +0000 |
| Vidocq_CC | Gavin started out somewhere as today, we'd like to pick his brain and of course, get tips for our own blogs. #cclivechat | Fri, 11 Nov 2011 17:01:53 +0000 |

| Vidocq_CC | Another question I have is how do we make sure our blogs do not get cluttered and, how do we keep the oldest posts in view? #cclivechat | Fri, 11 Nov 2011 17:06:33 +0000 |
| GavWard | @vidocq_cc I think the biggest mistake bloggers can make is not to share useful information. Bloggers should add value #cclivechat | Fri, 11 Nov 2011 17:06:43 +0000 |
| Vidocq_CC | @forensicnexus Cool, do not forget to use the hashtag #cclivechat so the others can filter you out via tweetchat | Fri, 11 Nov 2011 17:07:35 +0000 |

| Vidocq_CC | From @Cyber_Panda_ time issue is a big problem for me: i have periods of activity & inactivity rather than consistent blogging #cclivechat | Fri, 11 Nov 2011 17:19:30 +0000 |
| GavWard | @miriamsaid I love the excitement I get from publishing a blog immediately. I rarely schedule blogs #cclivechat | Fri, 11 Nov 2011 17:20:02 +0000 |
| GavWard | @GavWard @Cyber_Panda_ @Vidocq_CC @BrianInkster @problogger I'd consider myself a Ninja Blawger eg with http://t.co/OvHHauQX #cclivechat | Fri, 11 Nov 2011 17:21:07 +0000 |
| miriamsaid | @GavWard Have you ever had the nasty experience of someone plagiarising your blog posts? #cclivechat | Fri, 11 Nov 2011 17:22:04 +0000 |
| GavWard | @Cyber_Panda_ @Vidocq_CC ...where I won't write for a while then publish a good post that gets many shares #cclivechat | Fri, 11 Nov 2011 17:22:11 +0000 |
| GavWard | @miriamsaid Yes, plagiarism isn't to be welcomed, but as long as I get a mention/backlink to my website I'm generally happy #cclivechat | Fri, 11 Nov 2011 17:23:23 +0000 |

| miriamsaid | @GavWard. What is your motivation for blogging..Is it to educate/inform or to just get your view across to the masses?? #cclivechat | Fri, 11 Nov 2011 17:25:25 +0000 |
| GavWard | @Vidocq_CC ...but there are certain drawbacks to anonymous blogging. For me it was lack of ability to develop personal brand #cclivechat | Fri, 11 Nov 2011 17:25:54 +0000 |
| GavWard | @Vidocq_CC To avoid clutter in your blog, pick a good theme e.g. @WardblawG's is Thesis for Wordpress http://t.co/X0eh8tdD #cclivechat | Fri, 11 Nov 2011 17:27:12 +0000 |
| GavWard | @Vidocq_CC Thesis cost me almost $200 but there are plenty of good free Wordpress themes #cclivechat | Fri, 11 Nov 2011 17:28:02 +0000 |
