How to Become a Successful Blogger?
Well, many people are becoming bloggers these days. Those who are not yet active as a blogger might think after all what those bloggers get out of it?
Well, let me tell you one of the secret, why I am active in the field of blogging? Despite my busy schedule I try to write at least 2-3 blogs per week basis. Sometimes I do fail to achieve this smallest possible target too, reason behind being the tight and busy schedule to maintain daily needs of our life. And then I have one year old little angel too, who also needs some time out of my busy schedule and I always prefer giving her time even more than anything else (You can also check her at her FaceBook Page and follow her, you can be able to see her naughtiness). But still after all what is that single thing which encourages me to do blogging?
Satisfaction
Well, to be very precise, satisfaction is something which I always get after sharing my own knowledge with the world of web. It is always satisfactory when you write a blog and publish the same. It is even more satisfactory when you receive a comment or feedback on the same. Sometimes I receive a few mails or messages (through Google talk or FB) which elaborate about the feedback on a particular blog of mine, and it really gives so much of satisfaction to me.
So in my opinion satisfaction is something which can always energize you to blog, and share your own experience and knowledge with the world of web.
How to Build an Enjoyable Blog?
So, if you are also curious about blogging, and would really want to become a successful blogger, then you have reached to the right place. Read this blog and learn how to become a successful blogger and build an enjoyable blog:
Passion
One of the most important ingredients of the success of any blogger is his/her passion towards it. You can not be a successful blogger, unless and until you yourself enjoy while doing blogging. If you cannot enjoy writing blogs, or if you cannot enjoy reading your own blog, then obviously blogging will become too difficult and boring for you.
You need to have this passion of blogging inside you to become a successful blogger. Now you might ask me, yes I do love sharing my opinion with others and I have this passion as well inside me, but how can I be able to keep it alive?
My response on this is that while if you are feeling that your passion towards blogging is decreasing a bit, then the first thing which can re-generate this passion inside is the magical thing – Reading.
Reading
Well, one of my blogger friends Divya wrote an interesting blog on benefits of reading earlier on my other blog I News India. I think this can be an interesting read for you all.
So, as I was saying that reading blogs, books, novel, magazines, etc. are very crucial if you really want to become a successful blogger. If you cannot read you won’t be able to learn how to write, and how to express your opinion so that mass people can grasp it.
Reading different blogs of the same niche in which you are establishing yourself, will further give you enough idea about what is happening on your field. It will again give you an idea about what to blog and how to do it in a proper manner.
Content Research
When you thought about writing a blog on a particular topic, you must go through as much research as possible to understand the opinions of others on the same. Do as much research as possible, but always prefer to write blog in your own way only. Don’t copy and paste anything from anywhere. If you really like some blog, then you might provide a link to them or quote them with a link to them.
My point of view on how to become a successful blogger is that instead of writing so many blogs on topic you know very little about, writing a post in a week or even in a month is better which can reflect your authority on the same. Reading that particular one blog will tell your blog readers that yes boss this is the right person, who is writing something which I was looking for, and I will definitely follow him/her.
Quest Posting
Well, as I said writing a good blog post is better than writing too many below par blog posts, which won’t provide any unique stuffs to the readers. But then again if you really want to become a successful blogger you will have to write enough, at least you will have to fix a schedule in which you can be able to write blogs. The more blogs you write, the more ways potential readers will reach to your blog and follow you.
Comments
Comments being the most essential elements of becoming a successful blogger, thus you can encourage your readers to comment on your blogs, while you can also comment on some other blogs which you read while preparing content. While doing research you might have gone through different blogs and read them, and like them, so once you are ready with your blog post, do visit those sites/blogs once again and post useful comments over there. Always remember a poor comment is of no use, it will actually decrease the value of your site in the eyes of the readers, so try to give meaningful and useful things as comments on other sites.
Also take part in the conversations with the comments on your blog. Don’t hesitate to thanks users for commenting a single word as well, and don’t feel bad about deleting spam comments on your own blog. Publishing a spam comments on your blog is again a type of crime.
Social Media Share
Always remember your blog can become successful, only if your readers will like it. These days ever internet user is almost active on any of the social media sites like FaceBook, Google+, Twitter, etc. and if they like your blog, they will definitely like and share the same on those sites as well.
Thus you should always provide this option of social media like and share to your readers. You never know which readers of your blog might have a huge follow base on those sites, and you will become popular among them as he/she will like and share your blog on those sites.
Subscription Option
Always provide the options of subscription to the readers. Those who will like your blog will definitely like to subscribe to it, so that they can be able to read any of your new blog which you will publish later. So if you really want to become a successful blogger, then make sure that your blog should have this option of subscription, as if we do provide on the right sidebar to subscribe to Tech Acid blog, or you can also subscribe by clicking this link: Subscribe to Latest Technology Blog by Email
Structured Blog
While writing any blog you should be able to write it in a structured way. Make bullet points, or point wise presentation of the topic and see your readers will prefer reading it. No one in this world like reading a long essay, it is your duty to make your blog post a bit interesting so that everyone can has something through which they can be able to read it through.
Use Graphics
Not necessarily, but always try to use some graphics (like images, cartoons, infographics, videos, etc.) with which user can feel happy to read it. You already know that a image can say something which around thousand words would not be able to, while a video can be able to explain the same which cannot be able to explained in a book as well.
Search Engine Optimization
Knowledge of a bit of SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is necessary to popularize your blog posts. You should know how to look for keywords, how to prepare the posts with basic SEO stuffs like Meta Title, Meta Description, Meta Keywords, Alt Tags, using different Heading Tags in your post, etc. these are also very much essential. You might also know the things like keyword stuffing and keyword density so that you can prepare a proper SEO friendly blog post.
Then you must also know how to share your blog post, so that it can reach to the maximum.
