Music on your blog?
Posted by Michelle Laycock on Monday, November 26th, 2007
Some bloggers decide to put music on their blog. If you are blogging mainly for yourself and not for others, I see nothing wrong with that.
However, from a business perspective, music on a blog is not a very saavy move. Not everyone likes your taste in music. Not everyone wants the "noise" upon visiting (wakes the baby, etc.).
People are more likely to leave your blog if you have music.
