Very thoughtful artice Jeff and yeah its always good to start with a blog and turn it to company futher after. and the blogging link you provided are awesome and ultimately they are enough to start with good blogging techniques if you are new. And posting good content from the start is best because you can’t move a shell with you and hope it to be likable.

There are on page things and off page things which effects the perception of the people about the authority about a blog.
On page things are including, size of the blog, number of the people participating it, frequency of gnerating the new contents, design of the blog. Off page factors are such as it is position on the search engine,(many people believe rdible websites are always on the top of the SERP), page rank of the blog, trackbacks, links from other blogs.

Will you cover stage 1 part 2 as well? Because in my eyes you cannot establish yourself as an authority just by blogging. Commenting and networking has to go hand in hand with maintaining your blog.

It’s MUCH harder to be seen as an authority without a blog, even if you have a book that’s just been (traditionally) published. Of course, if you’re Stephen King that’s not a problem, but it is for the rest of us.

People Google you to see who you are. With a blog, they’ll find find out quickly. Use your blog’s “About” page to tell people who you are.

Yes, articles etc work, but the dinky little resource box just allows a mini-ad, hardly a full bio.

By far the best way to be perceived as an expert without using a blog is to start writing high quality articles and submitting them to Ezine Articles. But its even better if you create a blog and link those articles to it. This will quickly improve your Page Rank and increase your traffic.
