How To Be Successful Blogging by Lalastica1: 4:10pm On Oct 20, 2017 |
Blogging is one of the few things that have come to stay in our World today, it is good seeing Nigerian youths becoming part of this sphere that does not only encourage your education, esteem but in most cases earn you some little revenues you can hold on to but on the other way round, it is rather unfortunate seeing 80% of those who dive in diving out maybe because they have seen/experience the unusual and can no longer keep on with it. So what do you do in this case ?. Some good and well-formulated tips about blogging such as this I believe will do. So below are some of the things new bloggers should look out for if the word ' Successful ' is in sight for them. 1. Find/have a niche: A blog niche is any part of daily life affairs you can write about very well eg science and technology, arts, sports, lifestyle, health etc. Your ability to find one is your first step towards a successful blogging career as it will help your search engine ranking which will ultimately bring visitors to your blog and as well enable your blogging career stress-free. Do not jump as an individual into multiple niche blogs eg news blog that may demand you writing about current updates, sport, fashion, business, entertainment, technology e.t.c. Doing such will only stress you up and the quitting idea will be your next option. For those who may have been following this domain ' Nijablog ' knows that it use to be a news site until I understood the niche factor and now it's a tech blog and so far am enjoying the following: *Numerous number of visitors and page views eg as a news blog, some of my articles usually have 10 views all time stats but now some of my articles as a tech blog receive over 500 views few hours after publication with visitors from numerous countries of the world. *I now enjoy search engine ranking eg during my period of blogging as a news blogger, Google didn't fetch me a single click as shown by my stats as all my visitors were direct visitors, those who click on my links through networks like Facebook etc but as a tech blog, I was surprised and you know what that means. *Blogging is now stress free as in I can remember those days as a news blogger when I have to ensure I update my blog every minute for my readers, trying to know what is the latest, rewriting it every minute wasn't easy but now as a tech blogger inasmuch as I want my blog to be updated, I don't stress my self rather I publish whatever article when the inspiration comes. So you see the importance of having a niche when blogging asin the definition of blogging itself is writing an online journal about what you know or can do best. 2. Let not money making be the motive: I love Google AdSense for one word 'Earn while you write something blabla', not write to earn. The moment you venture into blogging with the motive of earning, then be ready to park out soon. Let the joy of having an online presence, audience and getting your voice across be your motivation not earning. When I venture into blogging with the motive of earning and got turned down by AdSense for insufficient contents, I almost Park out but later went for other Nigerian alternative like AdQuet, Dochase etc. Got approved by all but no longer even interested in displaying ads on my blog cause having recognize that blogging is not about money making rather the latter is just a substance of it that will naturally come at a later day, I don't want anymore mistakes and misplaced priorities. 3. Have original content: It is unfortunate that most bloggers are the copy and paste type but the truth is that this type of behavior will kill your self esteem as a blogger. I remember my startup as a blogger copying and pasting other people's content, it got to an extent and I started asking myself 'why am I a blogger if this is what I do? ', and I can remember when I asked for a blog review. One of the readers openly told me 'my bro, no big deal about this your blog as everything is copy and paste stuffs', how did he know?, I started asking myself searching Google if there is a technique used in identifying copied and pasted content but to cut a long story short, as a news blogger then, I deleted everything and started writing original content. Mehn you need to see the proudness in me whenever I go through my articles and even other sites started copying my content but they were acknowledging me in this case. So if you dream of success blogging, you must learn to avoid this copy and paste stuff, have something true and original to offer and this can be actualize mainly with a niche blog.
