Great question. There's no doubt that I've tailored my writing to fit what I think my readers want. I think that's necessary, as blogging is a two-way conversation (or a many-side conversation if you like) and not just me standing on a soap-box and giving lectures. However, there should be a balance between your readers' needs and your own, and that's the trick. :) @Miss Gisele: Thanks! I don't think my spelling is perfect (I've caught mistakes) but I do try my best! I think years of working as an editor and writer in journalism have helped. @Dot H.: Interestingly, I try not to give too much advice. Sometimes I catch myself doing it a lot, but my goal is really to share things that work for me, through experience, and have others take from that what they like. So instead of advice, it's sharing information ... but I try to share info that will benefit many people, through finding what we all have in common. @Myrko: Do I feel responsibility to my readers or do I just write with a free mind-set?

Shilpan made a good point: responsibility. Do you feel any kind of responsibility to your readers, or do you just write with a mind-set free as you wrote on the first day? Btw.

I’m mesmerized to see your consistency regarding blogging as well as your perfect spelling and grammar. Even I have a blog of my own but at times I do make spelling mistakes which I haven’t seen in yours single post. Excellent post as usual Leo.

I agree that quality content is the biggest draw, and the quality of your content is consistently good and reader-oriented. To what do you attribute your ability to give great advice that's helpful to so many different types of people? It’s always interesting to get a peek behind the scenes.
