I have read an awesome article from the blog of SponsoredReviews for the title of 10 Rules for responsible blogging, I like the rules very much and I definitely will pick up a few of good pointer from this article.

I have summarized the following suggestion of 10 rules for more responsible blogging.
1. Check your fact: make sure to check your fact before publishing posts or articles.

2. Respect copyright law: even you remove the the copyrighted content after the author contacts you the copyright infringement will still exist.

3. Consider the implications: remember that once you hit “Publish” you will immediately lose control over those words.

4. Control of Comments: create a comment policy and attach a link to the comment form.

5. Give credit where credit is due: always reference your sources by adding a link at the end of the post saying “Via: Reference.com”.

6. Disclose professional relationships: explicitly declare that the views expressed on the blog are yours and not the ones from your employer (unless you are blogging for that employer, obviously).

7. Disclose sponsored posts: make your position regarding those posts transparent in front of your readers.

8. Be transparent with affiliate links: if people believe in your work they will certainly accept your recommendations for products.

9. Respect tax law: do not forget to take into consideration the contributing writers as well. If you pay them more than $600 yearly you will need to file a 1099 form.

10. Avoid “blackhat” methods: it will bring some benefits, but they are not sustainable.
