Has anyone had success with a blog that has multiple topics, rather that one niche? I just started a new blog, and I'm fairly new to this webmastering thing. I was thinking about focusing this blog on tech stuff (yay another tech blog), but if I can have success with blogging about anything (somewhat like the Shawn Hogan Fan Club perhaps) I would rather do it that way. Your guru advice is much appreciated!
I'm just starting on my first in a niche field, so I can't say I've had success one way or the other. However, I think it depends a lot on what you are intending to do with it. I think you'll have a harder time with a multisubject blog, because you won't have anywhere near the draw for information on a particular niche, but I fugre it is doable.
