Why every guitar teacher should have a blog.

I have been writing separate blogs for guitar students and guitar teachers for some years. I must admit I was in two minds going on and off blogging for the first few years. I couldn't really see any value in it. I first begun to change my opinion when I went through a phase of daily blogging and then stopped due to travel. In the following days I received messages from guitar students telling me they missed my blogs. Around the same time I found the stats section on my blogger account and was shocked to see that I was getting up to 500 people a day reading my various blogs with the total number of hits just shy of 100,000. I couldn't really explain it nor did I understand what it meant but what hit me was the fact that I had an audience and that was worth something. If you teach guitar And want to establish a voice blogging is a worthwhile exercise. Blogging is a good option because it's easy. I use an App on my iPod called BlogPress and it allows me to post quickly and easily anytime. So instead of doing nothing when I am sitting on a train or waiting at an airport I can write a blog. Plus you never know when an idea for a blog will come.
