		<description>@Phil Paradis,

I agree! I think proper writing and grammar is something everyone online should shoot for as a goal with their blog posts, comments and even emails and  salesletters.

BUT, I do know that a lot of people email me asking how they can get started online blogging or in email marketing. They say they&#039;re terrible at spelling and grammar sucks, and want to know how to get started.

&lt;strong&gt;Well, just get started - do it - get out there and start writing.
&lt;/strong&gt;
My main point in the post here was that people WILL get over your misspellings and your bad grammar, as long as the content you provide is good and from your heart.

Don&#039;t use lack of writing skills as an excuse to not get things started for yourself.  Just get out there any do it.

People will find tons of spelling errors, grammatical errors and all sorts of stuff here - But I get my message out there and the point across.

Now I DO worry about grammar and such, and I do believe 100% that it helps in making you look more like a pro - but it&#039;s not needed to get started online.

So - YES! I agree with you 100% Phil :-)

But to anyone out there reading this, don&#039;t push off getting your blog online and write those emails or even finishing that report, because of spelling or grammar issues.  Get it done! If you are worry about that stuff - go to www.guru.com and find someone for a few bucks to proof read it and make corrections.

Thanks for posting a comment here Phil.

		<description>From my perspective as the webmaster of an educational resources website, I can attest to the fact that grammar and composition *does* matter for many audiences. While I agree with many of your points regarding the importance of being genuine when you write, I sincerely believe it&#039;s important to follow good writing guidelines whenever possible.

Once again, I do recognize the fact that many audiences won&#039;t care if a blog contains numerous grammatical gaffes. However, bloggers who aspire to be taken seriously as writers at some point in their careers would do well to carefully review their posts before hitting the &quot;Publish&quot; button.</description>
