Blog Writing: 10 Amazingly Easy to Follow Tips

This blog entry was posted on July 4, 2010.

1. Focused Topic: Write your blog with a central topic. What do your readers want to know?” Choose a topic that your ideal prospect would want to read about and one you would enjoy writing.
2. Do Not sell: The focus of the blog should be on educating, giving advice, tips, commentaries and opinions. Stay away from direct selling or self promotion.
3. Interesting Titles: Those first few words will make the difference between your blog posting drawing in hundreds of readers and your posting being totally ignored.
4. Easy to scan: Make it easy for your reader to scan your blog and get the gist of it. The main points should stand out in sub-headlines, lists, images, colors, italics and indented text.
5. Short Postings: A typical blog posting should be about 250 words. The longer a post goes, the more people skim. Studies show that people will read up to 300 words. More than that and they will skim only.
6. Keep it fresh, interesting and write original content. This is what keeps your readers coming back. Don’t be afraid to give your opinion.
7. Write clearly: Make it easy for your readers to clearly understand you. Poor writing style and bad grammar makes your readers work too hard.
8. Active Voice: Write concisely, plainly and openly. Write using action oriented words to get your message across as quickly as possible.
9. Post regularly: Writing 3 blog posts per week is ideal. Even a few posts each month will hold onto subscribers. Too few of posts and your blog will become stale or “dead.”
10. Stay positive: Opinions and commentaries are great, they are entertaining and interesting. What turns people off is negative and offensive language.
