So here you are twiddling your fingers, looking left to right thinking to yourself, “hmm where should I even start with my blog” ?
I get it … it can be so overwhelming and stressful starting your own blog, but I am here to give you my ultimate tips to create a highly effective blog that will keep your viewers coming back for more !
Look at the bright side, my highly effective tips could lead you living as a famous blogger in the streets of LA living that luxurious lifestyle. I mean we can only dream right ?
1. SPEAKING FROM THE HEARTΒ
Viewers love bloggers who are honest, open and original. They want content they have never seen before. Its like reading the same newspaper every day and still learning nothing new from it. You need to show your creativity and let your inner self portray through your blog. If viewers can feel connected with you, you are already half way there.Β
2. CONSISTENCYΒ
Consistency is always the number one thing you must remember whilst creating your blog. If you post constantly then out of the blue you stop, you will lose viewers. Viewers love consistency and regular updates. If you can’t portray that then you will know why your blog isn’t as successful as it should be.Β
3. HAVE A TARGET AUDIENCE
Chicken Nuggets! Travelling! Politics ! Makeup !
Are you already confused ? I sure am..Β
Having a target audience is a crucial part of blogging. Think about it, if you go from one subject to another it’s difficult to gain specific viewers to your blog. Your blog will be all over the place and will cause confusion as to what you are really trying to portray out your blog.Β
4. SHORT SIMPLE & SWEETΒ
Having a blog that is informative, interesting and simple to read is the way to go ! Viewers love to read but not when it continues to carry on and it takes you 10 pages down just to even start the topic ! Get to the point fast but do it in a quick and simple way. Split up your paragraphs, add graphics and videos. Intrigue your viewers. Leave them wanting more.Β
5. HAVE FUN WITH ITΒ
At the end of the day, blogging is about helping others, motivating others and informing others in selected topics. So you might as well have fun while doing it. Add humour and jokes in your content. It doesn’t always have to be so serious. Humour is what makes the world go around and it will captivate the viewers even more !Β
Did you hear about the restaurant on the moon? Great food, no atmosphere.
HAHA told you, I got you laughing didn’t I?Β
Do you have any other suggestions on how you can maximise your blog ? Please let me know as I would love to keep improving and get awesome ideas from everyone πΒ

You got that right. I’d also add “marketing” your blog. That means promoting your links on various social media sites, as well as interacting with other bloggers.

Agreed. I might add: Frequency.
Regardless of content, if you post every day you get higher traffic than once a week. As simple as that.
(I’ve only ever managed “thrice” a week at best. I try to stick to twice a week.)
Cheers.

But that has a strong impact on format, content… Since I know I can’t “make” the daily post, I stick to twice a week. π

I would suggest breaking a post down into bite-sized chunks. In other words, don’t be afraid to use paragraphs. Underline sometimes for emphasis. Change the size of the font.
I would also suggest using images. Many people have a dominant visual sense. This is especially helpful if your blog post is lengthy. Like the paragraph, it breaks a post into breathable, interesting, moments of pauses and reflections.
