It’s hard to grow as a blogger without falling under some criticism. Luckily in the year I’ve been blogging, most of it professionally, the criticism and angry commentary has been rare. But it’s been there.
Bloggers get some flack. And sometimes it’s some major stuff. Sometimes it’s for what you stand for. Somtimes for who you cite or your research bias. Sometimes it’s for your opinion. And sometimes, unfortunately, it’s personal. People just hate you, and they are ok saying so.
Nonetheless, as a blogger you’re likely to hit these down moments when you just want to stop sharing and turn off your comments. Darren over at ProBlogger talks about some ways to deal with criticism:
- Thicken your skin
- Establish boundaries
- Remember the Humanness of the Other (vital)
- Step away from the computer
- Listen
- Accept responsibility
- Don’t get personal
- Take it private
- Keep perspective
- Look for Opportunities
- Anger = Threat
- Dialogue
- Consider a Mediator
- Control the Rhythm and Tone of your Blog
- Move on
Read the details of each point from Darren . Some very valuable insight on how to deal with the flack - and how to avoid it in the future.
