A personal blog is just that; personal.  You don’t need everyone to read it.  Although the statistical data may be interesting, Google Analytics, Feedburner and Technorati were meant for the use of companies.  What really matters is that your blog is there in case someone wants to know you better.  It’s a great way to look inside someone’s persona.  A blog can reveal personal characteristics of its author.  It can tell if you are humorous, serious, warm, cold, snobby or down to earth.  The reader may also infer things like hobbies, interest, dislikes and make conclusions about the the author’s level of intelligence. 

A potential employer may read your blog before deciding to give you an interview.  The girl or guy of your dreams may read your blog before agreeing to a date.  If you ever find yourself in front of a Judge, your blog may be enough to sway Her Honor your way.  People that matter to you will read your blog. 

Of course, it would be nice to have a blog that has heavy traffic.  It would also be nice to be rich and famous.  There are a lot of things that would be nice but not necessary.   Relax and enjoy the freedoms of blogging.  The chance to share information and speak your mind.
