Be transparent

 

Some time ago you started a controversy by writing about a new service or say an Advertising company. Frankly, you are an affiliate and get money for writing those things. While anyone is free to decide what to do with your blog, it seems logical on the other hand to be honest with your readers. Think that may be detrimental to find out one way or another, that some of your personal opinions about something, are conditioned by certain factors. Be transparent.

 

Respect licenses

 

Do not copy entire articles from another blog on yours without permission. While not the best thing for that to be original, it makes no sense to use an entire post, adds nothing to your readers can not read anywhere else.

Do not hotlink

 

That is, using images, audio or video from another blog hosted on your server for the blog. You should always upload the files to your blog, since it consume resources of that server.
