Dear newbie Blogger, firstly I want you all to understand that blogging is NOT FOR EVERYONE! For the fact that Linda bought a mansion in Banana Island doesn't mean you will buy private jet from blogging.

There is this latest trends that has become really worrisome and saddening especially on the Celebrity and Politics section of Nairaland. You have succeeded in turning this sections to an eyesore!

Where in a bid to draw attention to their posts some newbie Bloggers go as far as commenting 50 times or even more on their own posts, coupled with very ridiculous and misleading headlines. Unlces and Aunties if this is not madness, then what is madness!!

Sadly, from 100000 percent plagiarism in Their posts, to very poor punctuation, incoherent storyline, down to misleading headlines, including the ones that post about pageantry everyday blessed day. Ah! Nawao!

Please dear newbie, that's not how to grow your audience. You grow your audience by dishing out fresh, captiving and hot contents. It would definitely not be instantaneous but people get glued and come back for more when your contents are captiving.

Sadly, this trend is not synonymous to Nairaland alone but including Opera news (that one is even worse), Instagram and Twitter.

Dear Blogger, if you can't go through the pain of sourcing for stories or cracking up your head to write articles or features then it's an obvious sign that blogging is not for you.

The worst is the misleading headlines... It's extremely annoying... I used to defend bloggers here when people say "la click la bend"...lol... But I don't blame them.. You'll click for one thing and another will pop up...

It's that annoying oh!! They need to understand that as beginners looking for quick traffic isn't the bane but getting real and quality contents should be the key!
