Rambling

Blog posts that ramble on and on about crazy ideas or sound like press releases hardly interest anyone. If you really want to grab attention, you will need to put up clear, concise and catchy posts. A blog post should ideally be limited to 250 words. Tell readers stuff they would immediately be interested in. Readers don’t even read long posts. Also, be sincere in what you write expressing your opinion clearly.

No leads

The very idea of a blog posting is to have the reader follow it up to your website. A blog posting without a suitable link or tip on where the reader can look up additional information is quite silly. But ensure that the blog posting is contextually related to the link you are putting up.

Dull headlines

No reader is going to follow a drab headline. Would you? Headlines are the soul of your blog posts. They should lure the reader and force him to extend himself all the way to the end of the post and follow up the link lead. Snappy, creative headlines with few words are perfect. However, using intricate puns which no one understands but you are useless.

Bad formatting

Writing blog posts with a clear mind is important. Chunking all your ideas in one paragraph is quite dull. Make your blog posts easier for readers to scan with plenty of subheads, bullets and sub-heads. See if you can put up a good photograph along with your blog post. Of course, don’t forget copyright issues on that. You can add all kinds of lists to your blog posts. ‘Top ten’, ‘Secrets of…’ etc are all hit lists for an online content.

Pathetic style, editing

No one likes to read a blog posting written in bad language. Use correct, simple and straightforward language. Do not use abusive language at all. That may even get you banned and evicted from the forum. Always edit your blog before pressing the publish button. You may have committed inadvertent spelling and grammar mistakes that must be fixed before you post. Using a consistent style will also earn you loyal readers. Be sure to use lots of apt keywords in your blog posting. This is an important SEO strategy and works perfectly with blog postings. But don’t force the use of keywords. That will only put off readers.

 

You can hire professionals to look after blog postings or do them yourself. However, blog posting should be regular and in apt forums. That will help drive traffic to your website and pep up your business. Contact us for this.
