What did spark the idea of Tech blogging to you ?

I started blogging @ ReviewSaurus as a hobby and thought of earning some money out of blogging. Because Technology fascinates me and also I was working as a technical support engineer for a UK based Internet service provider and always wanted to help people who don’t know much about computers, so decided to start the technology blog.

How your blog helps readers to understand technology ?

I started to write tips and tricks, software reviews and reviews about various web sites which could help the readers in making their day to day computing simple but now I’ve divided all these three sections in three different blogs and these blogs focus on a specific categories and that helps users looking for specific information accordingly.

ReviewSaurus concentrates on honest software reviews.TipsoSaurus concentrates on simple tips and tricks on computers, to help users in simplifying the day to day computer tasks StartupSaurus (will be launched by end of this week) concentrates on profiling the new startups which allow users to socialize, do desktop related tasks online.

Which point you think is very crucial in Tech Blogging ?

Constant flow of posts and interaction with the readers is most important in tech blogging. It’s actually crucial in each type of blogging, blogging is all about interacting with readers and no blogger can be successful if they miss on these points.

Before making a post how you analyze it ?

I ensure that the posts will be of some value to the readers in some way or the other. I ask question to myself that whether the post I’m making will help my readers in any way or not. If I get the answer in negative then I drop the idea of making the post otherwise I go ahead and write the posts.

What kind of readers you are targeting ?

I target those readers, who have got limited knowledge about computers and interested in enhancing it.

How you upgrade yourself with technology ?

I keep track of latest technology news through RSS feeds and by reading various blogs. I download the software which make my life simple in day to day task and that’s what I tend to think for my readers too.

How you measure that readers have grown with your blog in terms of knowledge?

It’s the feedback of readers which ensures that my readers have grown with my blog in terms of knowledge. I regularly get emails and I chat with my blog readers through various email clients and through comments and when they tell me that the blog has helped them that gives the ultimate satisfaction which a bloggers seeks through blogging.

How you target new visitors to become a reader ?

I ensure that I reply to their requests and questions regularly. And because I’ve diversified the blogs, so I’m targeting the users on specific niche which helps me to serve them better.

How you see you and your blog after 5 yrs ?

I’m really not sure about it, but yes I’ve planned to serve the readers better by starting my own company. Blogging Saurus is the company which is basically a network of Technology blogs, So I hope that my readers will keep on enjoying the content from this network in coming years ahead!

Sharing Knowledge, writing on software and tips . That’s what his goal is .I would request all my readers to visit his site and take a look around on his articles :) Visit his blog at Review Saurus and share some ideas and discuss things with him for sure.
