Its one of the key points in making a good presentation. If you speak over their heads, they are not going to listen or understand.

I think figuring out your voice and the way you plan on connecting with your users is one of the most important pieces of developing any web property – not only blogs. Great post – thanks!

That certainly makes sense too, but after writing for a while, it is easy to lose track of who you’re speaking to. Especially if you write for a variety of different blogs.

Then of course there are examples of when the writer starts writing for an established audience like me here.

Very apt. The need to understand your audience and what they will understand is the key to increased traffic.

I think another way to look at this is to create a blog and write for the audience you want to attract.

Instead of trying to make your writing fit your readership, go get a readership which suits what you’re writing about.

good post, thanks. it was a great reminder that you need to constantly know your audience/readers. stay in touch with them (even with multiple blogs) and see what they best react to. you still have to be you, but sometimes need to refine it!!
