Here's a mistake I encounter among new bloggers: adding background music to your blog.
It is rarely a good idea to have music automatically playing when someone opens your blog.
I imagine 90% of readers will immediately find it annoying and try to figure out how to turn it off. It also wastes bandwidth and slows down your page's loading speed.
If you really want to ad music to your blog, don't set it to auto-play.
