Blog

Blog posts are essential to the success of your business. Search engines like Google and Yahoo are constantly looking for websites that update their content in a consistent manner, and running a blog is a huge factor in that. You are also appealing to your audience because you are posting quality content that they can apply to their own lives and businesses. Because of both of these things, it’s incredibly important to make sure that you’re updating on a regular basis (and at least twice a week). Sometimes it can be difficult because you feel uninspired, but it’s still important you keep your schedule up. When you can’t manage to think of anything to write about, check out the tips below to help you out.

Ask Your Audience a Question

People love answering questions. In fact, just asking a question can create tons of interest in your blog from people you didn’t even know were reading it in the first place. Asking questions is essential in social media and blog posts alike as it guarantees some sort of response to your audience. In addition to asking a question at the end of every blog post, make a blog post asking a question. It doesn’t have to be a long post, and your input doesn’t have to be extensive. These posts just serve as the beginnings of a conversation with people following you.

Make a Prediction

There is nothing more exciting than an event going on that doesn’t have a definite ending. Take the launch of the iPhone 5, for example. Apple hyped up the launch and created rumors themselves about the iPhone 5 just so people would start speculating – and making predictions. Thousands of blogs started talking about it, and many more people got involved in guessing as well. Get some attention with your thoughts on the future of a new product or your sector.
