Have Control Over Your Daily Blogging Efforts

By Tennant Neil


Blogging is about writing. If you don't like to write, you probably won't enjoy blogging. But if you've never tried writing, you may have an as yet undiscovered talent that you would enjoy. So try writing a few practice blog posts. Write about something interesting to you. If you enjoy writing, then blogging may be for you!

Don't forget to add social media sharing links on your blog. This will ensure that people can share your blog on their profiles for free. Doing this can increase your traffic by quite a bit. It will keep increasing if the content's good because people can tell their friends which puts you on multiple pages at once.

Update your blog frequently to increase traffic and build a loyal readership. Research your articles well and make sure you are supplying good information that is pleasantly presented. If you neglect your blog for too long, people will forget about your blog! So, update it at least once a week to keep your blog fresh and current.

Keep tabs on other bloggers who cover the same topics as you do, and be sure that you stay ahead of them. These blogs are your direct competitors. Like any business, knowing your competition is the best way to beat them. Your competition will no doubt be doing the same.

When blogging, it's crucial that you are using the proper font size. The text in your posts is the heart of your content, so it's critical that the text is easy to read. You want to achieve the perfect balance, avoiding a font that is so big that it overtakes the whole page or so tiny that your readers find it difficult to read the text.

Strive to develop a loyal following. You don't want your reader's bowing down in your presence, of course, you just want them to come back to your blog day after day. Those are the kind of readers than can help you accomplish your goals. They obviously respect you and, consequently, your recommendations will carry a lot of weight.

If you are writing an article, and it is under 500 words, it is best not to use it. People are reading your blog to gain knowledge or information, and you want to make sure that you are meeting this need properly. Articles that are too short will not give your readers everything they are looking for.

There's an old rule that says, in order to make money, you have to spend money and that's true, even when it comes to blogging. If you take some money and put it aside for purchasing advertising, such as Google adwords or Yahoo ads, then your website will receive that much more traffic and exposure.

Now you know that a blog is not only useful as a sales tool, but as a fun way to do business, increase awareness, or simply find your voice. The people you work with, work for and others will all be happy with the time you spend keeping them entertained and in the know. Apply the methods laid out in this article, and have fun interacting with other people.
