I expect you are all aware of what a blog is. Let’s face it – you can hardly go on the internet or switch on the TV these days without running into blogs. They are literally everywhere, and you’ve probably also heard that there is a lot of money to be made with them too. I’m guessing you’d like to get in on the action…
Content is the key to making money from your blog. You can have all the widgets, plugins, bells and whistles, but if your content doesn’t make people stick around, then it’s all in vain.
Write the content Yourself and Give It Your Personality If you can write a letter, you can write a blog post. Think about your readers as friends, who you are writing a letter to. You will want to make them laugh, recommend a product that has helped you and infuse your personality throughout the letter.
How can you fill your content with your personality?
Tell your reader your story. Let them into your life by providing snippets of information. Let your reader know that you are human – a human that they can relate to and more importantly trust. People love reading stories, so make sure your blog posts have some. This can be the story of how you achieved something, how you overcame something, how you developed your interest in the topic your blog is about. You can also ask your readers to share their stories as well, that way everyone can learn from each other. That interactivity should be the ultimate aim in your blog writing endeavours, and is hard to achieve unless you write the content yourself.
Other types of stories can include things happening around you -
A conversation you might have overheard that relates to your blog topic
Your take on something happening in the news, and how it affects you.
Something you read that gave you inspiration.
What your children did to make you laugh and how it reminds you of something important in life.
Those are the secrets to good content on your blog.
Outsource Your Blog Posts
If the thought of writing and even rewriting scares you to death, then you can consider outsourcing. It can take a while to find a good writer, but find one and it can be a massive time saver.
Probably the best ways to find good writers is to ask for recommendations, or take a trip to the Warrior Forum (http://www.warriorforum.com), where there are plenty of writers waiting for an exciting new writing opportunity like yours. If the person is any good you’ll be able to see it by the comments they are getting and the feedback from other forum members.
Auto Blog Content
If you want a REALLY hands off approach there are several plugins out there which will automatically post content to your blog. Plugins such as AutoBlogged take content from RSS or Atom Feeds and posts it to your blog. Cool huh!
Extra Content Tip: Putting Video in Your Blog
Everyone loves videos. Adding videos will make your readers stay on your blog for longer – and they are great for traffic too.
You can either create your own videos or you can find a good related video on YouTube, which you can embed into a blog post.
