The Simple 10-Step Guide To Better Blogging

There are millions of blogs on the web, and hundreds of thousands of blogs get added onto the web every day. With the amount of blogs on the web rapidly increasing, more people than ever are looking for ways to become better bloggers and get more traffic. If you are one of those many people, you have come to the right place. In this blog post, I am going to provide you with the 10 steps that many bloggers including myself have used to become better at what they do.

1. Identify your niche. You need to know what your niche is before you write your first blog post.
2. Get comfortable with the dashboard. Getting comfortable with your dashboard means knowing how to publish a new post, publish a new page, add sidebar widgets to your blog, and more.
3. Read other people’s blogs. Doing this will allow you to learn more about your niche. Even if you just read other people’s blog posts for 15 minutes every day, you’re ahead of the game.
4. Get ideas from other blog posts and from idea generators. This makes the process of thinking of ideas easier. When writer’s block hits, blog post idea generators and other blog posts come to the rescue.
5. Only write about the things you enjoy writing about. You may be writing about the same thing for years to come, so make sure you have fun every step of the way.
6. Keep it simple. I could have added an extra 5,000 words to this blog post and convey the same messages, but I don’t think you would want to read a blog post that large.
7. Make it easier for your visitors to read your entire blog posts. Make them shorter, make lists, use bold font so some people with busy schedules can skim through the content, and write in bite sized paragraphs instead of one giant block of text.
8. Write better headlines. Headlines attract people to your blog post and encourage them to keep on reading. Here are some ways to write better headlines.
9. Practice every day. If you are able to practice every day, you are naturally going to get better at what you practice in. Why not practice writing every day?
10. Never limit your scope of possibility. Why settle with where you are when you can do something much greater and more empowering.

Implementing these 10 steps will allow you to become a better blogger and write in a style that would encourage visitors to come back. Which step was your favorite?
