Are you interested in starting a blog? There are many reasons you’d want to do this. Unfortunately, most bloggers never achieve the results they want. Let’s look at some tips which are essential for success.
I’ve been blogging for ten years, and manage many successful blogs. You can achieve this too.
Let’s look at some vital tips. I’ve created them in the form of questions for you to answer. Write down your answers, please don’t try to keep them in your head.
You’ll be amazed at how quickly you forget your goals and plans if you don’t write them down. Moreover, having a written record keeps you motivated. You’ll remember your original inspiration, and will be inspired all over again, each time you read what you’ve written.
1. What Do You Want This Blog to Do?
Perhaps you want your blog to make money, if so, write that down. Or perhaps you want to become well known in an area — write it down.
The more clear your expectations are for your blog, the more likely it is that your blog will live up to those expectations.
2. Who’s the Audience for This Blog?
Your audience may be “people who are interested in __________ (your blog’s topic.)”
Or: “an employer who will hire me.”
Your audience is never “everyone.” The more clearly you can imagine your readers, the more likely it is that you will attract those readers.
Blogs are publications, just like magazines. Even magazines in the same area, camera magazines for example, are determinedly different. They sell advertising based on the readers they attract.
When you know who your readers are, it’s easier to attract them.
3. What Kind of Content Will You Provide?
Once you know who your readers are, it’s easier to plan content for them.
Plan for a mix of content, so that you can reach those readers who prefer video or audio over text.
Create a content plan for the first two months of your blog. The more useful and entertaining content you have, the more readers you’ll attract.
4. How Will You Promote Your Blog?
Put your focus on content initially. You can focus on promotions once you have content for your site’s visitors.
Make a list of promotional methods you’ll use, and create a promotions plan, with dates for implementation.
5. How Will You Track Your Progress?
You’ll want to track visitors once you start promoting your blog. Google Analytics is an excellent service, and it’s free. Install it, so you can create more content site visitors appreciate, so that you’ll the results you want from your blog.
