The new Digg has been a pretty big phenomenon amongst the online community, with thousands of articles published on it’s new features and workings. But by far my favorite feature of the social bookmarking giant has been the auto-submit tool. It’s possibly the greatest new feature for Bloggers and allows you to automatically Digg your new posts via your Blog’s RSS feed.

In the past Digg has turned it’s head at the thought of Bloggers submitting every post to their network, but the ever developing world of social media has changed all this. It’s new release brings forward a new age for Digg with much better social intergration, like followers and “My News.”

The problem with free themes is that you never get the full product, what I mean by this is that you never get an admin panel or strong reviews on the theme you’ve selected.

That’s were premium themes come in, they always have an awesome admin panel so you’ll be able to manage all aspects of your new Blog’s design aswell as they usually come in a range of colours and are fully customizable, this will help you keep a unique style.

I think a lot of Bloggers when they first start out have a constant sting in the back of their mind. This sting is the paranoid and envious little man talking to you, he’s always saying “Does my Blog’s design work?”, “Will people like my Logo?”, “My Blog’s never going to make it if I only have 20 posts” and “Why doesn’t my Blog look like that one?”.

Envious thoughts are only natural in any line of online work, but it’s very important to power through those negative thoughts and replace them with positive ones. This is the only way of keeping motivated and on track when it comes to Blogging. There’s something every new Blogger has to understand, nobody starts a success.
