Hello Friends
I am doing well in one of my tech related blog. I am posting new stuffs regularly and trying to make an active one.
But as I am posting more and more new stuff, I am thinking that I am getting better with writing style and new stuff. But it look like its never ending. I mean I am keep thinking that my old stuff isn't that good in compare to new one. But when I read all content of those older one they are still okay not that bad..
So is it a normal thing? I mean we always rate our old stuff less in compare to newer one?? What you think about it?

Yes.. That's for sure. I recently started rechecking my old stuffs and yes some of them really needed updates.. And yes that's what I am doing. Blogging is surely not easy. It is surely needed time and dedication. I am trying best with my computer related blog with all my dedication.

we can always edit it
even here when i post something and if i read the same few days back i thing i could have written something else but in blogs as we can edit it we can always keep on changing it
and its a good habit too

Dup.. no one gives free domain without anything costing elsewhere.. Go for it.. I am sure you can make your blog popular. Your writing style is good. Just choose the subject in which you are interested so you can add more things in it.
@sajeev.. I have purchased that domain for two years.. its not free. Yes we can edit them and that's what I am doing..

I understand what you're going through. I am feeling like that myself whenever I am blogging. I don't know whether it's a normal thing, though. I never took the time to ask others. I always think it's my perfectionist personality that is making me behave this way...I just don't know.
All I do is accept the feeling and re-read my previous works. If I find errors, I change them. If I see that something is amiss, I edit them to my current liking until my urge quiets down...

Hi, I think you are doing great in making blogging as you passion. It is going up to the next level every time you make new post.
I have been a blogger for almost 5 years now, but unlike you I just made it as my past time and can only update my blog once I'm free and not tired from work.
There are great earning potentials on blogging, I know there are blogger who made big earning monthly.

Hello, I can relate because I have finished writing a book, and from first draft to final, I can see where my writing has improved. It is with time. Funny but I needed to see it with the eyes of a pro. (Not me.) Anyway... I think that with time we all improve with wisdom and some knowledge..JK..but it takes time. Have a great evening... :) :)

Dear friend, our life, everything changes. This should know. But why, does not mean that the "old stuff" should be overlooked. Ok I understand that blogging should definitely always keep up to date, but also post-dated, they still have value if they are concrete. So we must be both conservative and innovative.

I don't really know because i just start blogging, and oh, boy... i just found out that i suck at writing... LOL... would you mind to share how much did you earn from your blog? is it $300 a month or less? because i hope one day if i'm already good at writing, i would expect more than $300 a month... for now i just train my writing skill, not expecting too much money yet...

Yes I believe that's natural. It's all a part of progression. Of course your newer material is going to be better than your older material. As you develop your skills and talent in blogging your ideas, formats even your grammar will be enhanced thereby allowing for the inevitable development of your blog.
In fact seeing as you view your old stuff to not be as good as your newer contents, means you're making vast improvements along the way. And it's very good that you can critique yourself.
So take a bow and keep up the good work. As you continue to progress in the "art of blogging" you'll look back and realise that what you wrote today wasn't as good as what you're writing then,as aforementioned it's all part of progression. :)
