Writing a successful blog means reaching hundreds or thousands of people. The more the better. So how do you do that?
Keywords
Use Google's excellent keyword tool to see how many people are searching for the main words in your title. Your title means everything. To be found you need to appear in search engine results. That takes keywords. So, do the research, and choose carefully.
Topic
What topic you pick to write about is no less important. Pick something that:
- lots of people are interested in
- or your target audience is interested in
- and, of course, material that supports your professional needs.
Quality Content
Content is your stock and trade. The quality of your content literally determines your success. Proofread ruthlessly. Punctuate scrupulously. Verify the meaning and spelling of any unfamiliar words. How you write what you write reflects on you. Your readers will forgive the occasional typographical error. They will not tolerate poorly written content on a daily basis.
As we've said on this blog many times before: "If you don’t pay attention to the needs of your audience, they won’t pay attention to you."
