1)  Inform others - From cooking to cars, the number of projects I've successfully completed because of other people's blogs is truly amazing. A little information can go a long way no matter what the topic is.

2)  Give access - If you already have a fan base I bet they're trying to reach you and if you don't already have fans, there's no better platform than a blog to get some.

3)  Market your business, product or service - if you have something to sell and don't have a blog you're missing out on a great way to interact with over a hundred million potential customers a day.

4)  Make money - If your voice spreads a popular message far and wide, someone will likely want to market their business, product or service on your blog and pay you for it. There are many people making their living at blogging and there are no rules written in stone about who can and can't succeed at it.

5)  Socialize - A blog can be a big part of your social network. Many people blog just to converse with others and the conversations had are often more in depth than you'll find elsewhere.

6)  Express yourself- Show what you want, say what you want and the Internet will watch and listen.

7)  Have fun - It can be a lot of hard work but at the end of the day blogging is sharing and as cheesy as it sounds sharing with others is incredibly fun.
