The first mistake I made with my first blog was launching a blog without any content.

I was so excited that I have got it set up, customized and in a few hours and ready to launch that I launched it absolutely empty and started promoting it. Putting it on all possible social networks, writing to my friends on Skype and posting it on the local business forum.

Outcome

It sucked like nothing else on this Earth. People hated it. I was so disappointed and felt offended when I just wanted to feel important and be seen as someone who is awesome enough to create his own blog.

A mistake not to make

Never ever launch a blog without a content. Work on your content strategy, develop it and slowly produce quality content before making it available for the public. You simply don't decide to sell a book, you design a cover, and you sell an empty book. Do your homework. Write your content before publishing your blog so readers can get some value from your blog.

The good thing

Just do it. Screw it, lets do it as sir Richard Branson said. If you got that impulse, that spark just use that energy to build something. Starting up with a crappy product is better than just thinking about perfect product which will never be released.
