Default Blogs do's , don'ts & most effective

ok so for those of us that are or will be starting blogs. What are some of the do's and don'ts?

How long should you wait to add a new blog thread? Should you keep an old thread in the top 3 so it is on you home page if it is a good "bait blog"? How do you get ghost writers from vendors that you use and want to use as apposed to another vendor that likes to write but you don't like or want to use their service? Does a blog on the home page have more weight than on that is archived? Does a blog have more juice if it allows others to have links to their site or the site being blogged about?

I'm sure I will come up with more the more I delve into this.

Drew the most important thing is to write at a pace that you can keep up. If you have long gaps between posts you will loose readers and have to start over to get them back. Start with a post per week and see if you can keep it up. If you have time to write 2 posts in a week, post one and save the other as a backup for a week that you are busy.

Other than that I don't ahve enough experience with blogs to give much advice. Best of luck and share with everyone if you learn anything useful elsewhere.
