How To Gauge If You Are A Pro In Your Niche
Do you read over the past posts (advice and suggestions) in your blog or do you know what you have ever posted 1 year down the road?
One of the advice that many successful markters will give to new online marketers will be to concentrate on your niche and blog often on that niche.
And, to be able to blog often, you have to learn how to give advice and suggestions in your blogging. From there onwards, you will slowly build up your traffic and subscribers. That’s where you also build your fame and can result in good monetary sense. Agree?
So one of the ways to gauge, I believe, whether you are a professional or expert in your niche is if you do read what you have posted and most importantly using what you have posted as a reference.
For example, I have ever written a post on how to write articles to drive sales and traffic and articles, as many marketers would strongly recommend, article marketing is one of the good tools to use in your online business. So whenever I do write an article and I want to use a good template to gauge - I can use my post as a reference.
So what does this mean to you and to others? Simply put, if you preach what you says and use what you know, other marketers will pick it up and have better perception of you as a professional in your niche.
Remembering, blogging is not just posting for others to enjoy. Blogging what you know, can be a good reference for your own as well.
Learn from what you have posted and you can be a better professional!

Good post. I feel if you are able to consistently post for 6 months on your niche, I consider that you are good enough in your niche. There are always new people who wants to know more and your blog could be one platform to share information that you know but are foreign to them.

Yeah I’d agree with this. I mean, if you don’t ever use your own stuff for reference then it’s most likely that other people won’t either. I often find myself referring back to articles that I wrote less than a month ago.
