Well, we’ve been writing for quite some time and we thought we’d do a bit of reviewing on blogging itself and what we should be doing. Here is a post from our guest writer, Britnee Nguyen. We read her list below and wondered what our readers would think. Do you think this is realistic, to be expected or is it too short? Personally (Tatiana) I think may be some points missing…such as engaging our readers.

What can we do better on that front for you?

Anyway, give it a read and know that all are welcomed to comment back. Agree, disagree, add  and build on the information below. We all have lessons to share.

Cheers

Five Tips On Writing Blog Posts

Author: Britnee Nguyen

The main purpose of blogs is to communicate ideas and thoughts from yourself to the reader through your blog posts. Not only should your blog look good (which can be obtained through free WordPress themes), but it should also have good content. There are several things you should keep in mind when writing your blog posts to make them the best. You’ll have repeated visitors if you have great blog posts that are easy to read and appeal to the reader.

First, when you are writing a blog post, be sure to break up your text. Don’t write one super long paragraph because it’s too hard to read and viewers will not even bother trying to read it. You can avoid large chunks of text by throwing in some pictures, graphics, graphs, and videos.

Keep your posts fairly short. Nowadays, people have shorter attention spans and will not continue to read your post if it’s too long. Be clear and concise in your writing. If you have more you want to say on the subject, just break it up into a second post.

Write your blogs posts with the reader in mind even if it is just your personal blog and you don’t expect many to read it. Write each post with a purpose and a focused agenda and write it in an entertaining way that others will enjoy reading.

Use keywords in your blog posts. If you want to drive more traffic to your blog, using keywords is the best way to do it. People are always searching for things on search engines. If you have a blog post that has many of those same words or “keywords” people are searching for, you’ll pop up higher on the list. Figure out what phrases and words you should use the most and use them as much as you can (without being too redundant) to get on the search engine lists.

Last but not least, you should post regularly on your blog. If you want visitors to follow your blog, you need to have fresh content up often. This will not only keep visitors interested, but will help you out on search engine results too. New content gets better search engine rankings, and therefore, more visitors. When you are more attentive to all these tips when writing blog posts, you’ll more likely have more hits on your blog and a have devout readers.
