What
is SEO tip you think all bloggers should know?
Have you been thinking for a long time and finally decided to create
your own personal blog? Surely, you feel like a tourist who has lost his
way in a foreign country. An endless number of questions spin in your
head. How to call your blog? What subjects to choose? How to
promote it on the Internet? How often to post posts?
So, do not
panic. You are neither the first nor the last person making his first
steps in the blogosphere. Thousands of people have gone this way before
you. And they have something to share with you. In this article, we
have collected 36 conclusions to which you sometime sooner or later
arrived. But why wait? Use these tips now and do not wait for life to
fill you bumps.
You should be well versed in the
subject matter of your blog, or at least show a great interest in it. Love
to learn different recipes and delight your loved ones with new
dishes? Then dedicate your cooking blog. Do you like traveling and
discovering new countries and cultures? Then create a travel blog.
Do not forget that you will write
texts devoted to the chosen subject practically every day. Therefore, it
must necessarily inspire you. In addition, the rest of your blog will
depend on the theme: title, design, target audience, etc.
2.Your blog must have a unique
domain name.
If you decide to start blogging
seriously, do not post your blog on foreign domains (like wordpress.com or
blogspot.com). Otherwise, you will not be able to stand out against the
background of thousands of other bloggers who prefer standard solutions.
Imagine that you rented a car for a
couple of days. Will you be able to repaint it in a different color or
replace its details? Of course no. By registering your blog on a
different domain, you find yourself in a similar situation. You will not
have the opportunity to make the desired changes.
3.Your first posts will not be
perfect.
And it is quite expected. Do you
know at least one blogger who from the very beginning would give out real
masterpieces? Personally, I do not. You will need time and practice
to become a professional.
Take a look at children who are just
learning to walk. Do they acquire this skill in a few days? Of course
no. They fall, rise, fill the bumps and rise again, until finally they
make their first confident step. So, do not demand too much from
yourself. The time will come and you will be proud of your posts.
4.Decide on your copyright style.
Do you want to be a serious, lyrical
or funny author? Whatever style of presentation you choose; it should be
natural for you. Do not step on your own song's throat. Otherwise,
your subscribers will immediately feel the notes of falsehood in your texts.
5.Do not be afraid to experiment
Having defined your “role”, you can
already try something new. Do not be limited to articles. Try to
write hockey. Create infographics. Take
a video. You will not be able to find out what works best for you without
examining various post formats.
6.Blogging will not save you from
financial problems
If you urgently need money, and you
think blogging will help you solve this problem, you are mistaken. Yes,
a blog can really make you a profit. However, for this
you will need at least several years. After all, it is impossible to
promote your blog in just a couple of months.
In general, blogging is not a panacea
for financial difficulties. If you are completely breaking, then look for
other options to increase your income.
7.The popularity of the post does
not always depend on the amount of effort spent on it.
It so happens that you spend the whole
day on writing the text, put your whole soul into it and, naturally, expect the
audience to appreciate all your efforts. And so, you publish your blog
post, and in response - silence ... No comments, likes and sharing’s. And
it happens the other way around. You spend on writing the post some half
an hour, but it produces a real sensation. So, do not worry - give writing
posts as much time as you need, taking into account the interests of your
subscribers. The reaction of the audience is unpredictable, and not the
fact that the material on the creation of which you have invested a lot of time
and effort will surely become viral.
8.Promote your posts on social
networks
If you are modest by nature and do not
like to attract attention to yourself, then blogging is not for
you. Whatever wonderful posts you write, no one will know about their
existence unless you start actively promoting them in social media. So,
down with modesty and timidity: it's time to tell the world about your blog!
Post links to your posts on Twitter,
Facebook, VKontakte and other social networks. Create groups dedicated to
your blog and invite new members to them. Let you be called an upstart,
but you will know for sure that your publications will not be ignored.
9.Sometimes you can deviate from
the topic.
If your blog is dedicated to a
specific topic, this does not mean that all your posts should affect only
her. Sometimes, you may want to tell your readers something important, but
“off topic.” Off all doubts! Similar posts will make your blog more
attractive and interesting. In the end, your audience may get bored from
hundreds of monotonous posts on the same subject.
10. Be prepared for criticism
No matter what business you do, there
will always be people who will criticize you. Blogging is no
exception. You will be hurt, provoke, infuriate. In general, the rest
you cannot see.
If you are faced with constructive
criticism, it is even good. Perhaps this person understands something
better than you. This will give you the opportunity to improve their
knowledge in their subject. If this is another brazen troll, then you
yourself know what to do. Put it in the ignore.
11. Always write, even if you have
no inspiration.
The best way to overcome creative stagnation
is to start writing. Turn on your computer and type something. Let it
be utter nonsense, which is incomprehensible even to you. The main thing
is to take the first step: to touch the keyboard with your fingers. No
wonder they say that the appetite comes with eating. Once you start
typing, it will be hard to stop. Words, phrases and sentences will flow in
a stream, turning into meaningful text.
12. You always have a chance to
improve.
Do you want to fall through the ground
while reading your last post? “And why did I publish it?” - you think to
yourself. Stop doing self-flagellation. After all, this is not the
end of the world. Yes, perhaps your publication was not entirely
successful. But what will prevent you from writing a new, better post to
save your reputation? Is that your laziness.
