Here is what I always tell first time entrepreneurs: start a blog in your area first and aim to attract xxx number of readers before attempting the startup. To me, blogging is the best way to test your idea as well as is the ideal training ground for your subsequent entrepreneurial journey. Here are five reasons why:

Blogging tests your commitment and fosters discipline

Blogging forces you to gain domain expertise

Blogging forces you to be customer centric from day one

Blogging teaches you about how online marketing works

Blogging builds your connections

So, if you are a first time entrepreneur, do start a blog first. It is the cheapest test bed for your business. If you cannot make a blog work, you probably cannot make your startup work as well. Have fun blogging!
