My YMYL SEO $0.02, Mastering Blogging - Some Fail, Some Thrive. Why?
Published: Fri, 02/15/19
I hope everyone had a good Valentine's Day. We did. I got to see all 3 of my babies and today I'm spending some time taking my grand dog (a Husky) to the dog park. I miss having him living here with me. He has such a neat personality. Someday I guarantee I will be known as husky lady with a dozen rescue huskies or something. LOL!
Okay here's what I have for you today:
Mastering Blogging - Some Fail, Some Thrive. Why?
Ever wonder why some bloggers end up insanely popular while others fizzle out, all their hard work down the drain?According to Sharyn Sheldon, those who fail don't succeed because of this:
- They don't know what to blog about... so they stick with the same boring topics as everyone else or stare at a blank page and give up
- They think they need to churn out content daily and they'll eventually get visitors
- They confuse traffic with the level of engagement they have with their readers
- They don't know what or when to sell to the visitors they do have
- They get sucked into time-wasters that do nothing for their blog
- They lose motivation and get distracted by promises of quick wins
- They know exactly who their readers are and what topics they want to hear about.
- They know how to put together a blog post that captures a reader's eye, draws them in, and engages their attention throughout the whole article.
- They use proven marketing tactics to make sure their posts get the right visitors - those who will want to read what they write.
- They initiate and encourage conversations with and among their readers... on social media
- They understand how their readers make decisions when it comes to actually buying something from them.
- They establish habits that keep them blogging consistently, day in and day out.
