Dear Naomi,
How do I stop being paralyzed by other people’s success?
Here’s the situation…
What The Hell Do I Do With My Blog Categories?
Hey Naomi!
Do you have any tips or any thoughts at all on blog topic categories? That probably sounds so basic but for some reason I’ve never been able to figure out a method for doing it so every article on my blog is just categorized as “screenwriting.” Which I literally have people emailing me to complain about.
So I know I need to fix it, but I don’t get how broad or granular these stupid categories should be, or what kind of a system they need to create, or what they should all add up to. And who knew a person could have so many questions about categorizing blog posts.
Anyway. Any thoughts are appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Naomi Beaty
Excellent question, Naomi!
As someone who has used ONE category on their blog for thelast many years (“Small Business Marketing”), I can say with authority, you’re not alone. For me, at least, I go into ADD spin-out land when I think of categories. It can be really hard to pin down what you’re writing about in that granular a way.

Thank you, Mary. You sent in an excellent question, and I’m sure many people are glad you asked it.
You ask a question that many need answered but few are brave enough to ask.
