Poll Results: Blogging & None Blogging Motives

The two online polls in relation to blogging have been closed.

Let's see the results !






Why do you blog? .........social networking... is the answer

The poll results show that around 60% of our respondents consider that the key driving force for blogging is to express their own opinion. While 30% utilise blogs primarly as a mean for documenting their life and 10% to find friends.


You do not blog? Why? .........I want to but ....is the answer

The poll results for the non-bloggers are very insightfull. If you look a little deeper into our responses you will see that 88% of non-bloggers are bloggers to be and only 12% wish to remain in the outer part of the blogsphere which entails less blogging activity.

Thank you all for taking part in these poll !

You do not blog? Why?

Someone, correctly pointed out that there are people in the blogosphere that although they do not have their own blog, they are a part of this virtual sphere. They are active members of this system since they read others blogs and/or provide their comments, ideas etc.

This is another sphere then, the outer disk, surounding the blogosphere; encompassing interested readers that may someday become bloggers themselves or not. I guess that this is the case for the vast majority of those who now own their own blog; they started by reading others blogs.

So, which is the reason then that some people tend to stay in the outer sphere and never consider moving to the inner sphere ? Is it more interesting reading at others thoughts, is it time consuming to maintain your own blog, is it something that you always wanted to do but for some reason this never materializes?

Those of you that belong to this sphere, can vote in the corresponding poll.
