An Incredible Blogging Tips- How To Take Your Blog From Zero To Hero by eaglegist: 4:46pm On Apr 07, 2017 |
Best blogging Tips on How to take Your Blog from Zero to Hero. In this post, We are going to reveal to you how you can become a successful blogger and how you can start making money from your blog from the first day you launch your blog. Journey with me as I reveal the secret of becoming a successful blogger. Below are the essential tips that can make you a successful Blog 1. Before Starting your blog, Think About How To Monetize Your Blog One of the biggest mistakes most beginners make while starting a blog is they create content first, try few ways to increase their traffic and then they find ways to monetize their blog. Let me be honest. If you follow the same path, you will eventually fail to build a blog that makes money. Why? Without finding ways to monetize your blog before you even begin, you will hardly make any money online. Begin with the end in mind. Always! Analyze your top competitors and find out how they are monetizing their sites. Find out their traffic generation sources, how they are captivating their readers to buy their stuff and repeat the same. You don’t always have to reinvent the wheel. Spend time in carefully understand your competitors and you will find smart ways to monetize your blog. 2. Stand Out From The Crowd There are literally a gazillion of blogs out there, and 99% of them are pure junk. There’s just too much competition going out there online. It’s really hard to build a successful blog that makes money in 2017 because of heavy competition. If you are offering the same advice everyone else is offering, why would anyone follow you and buy what you recommend? Observe any highly profitable blogger such as Darren Rowse, Pat Flynn, Seth Godin, Derek Halpern; you will notice that they have built million dollar blogs by focusing on one thing: standing out from the rest of their competitors. 3. Write in-depth Articles Did you know that articles with over 2,000+ words always rank well in Google? Gone are the days where you can simply increase your overall search traffic by posting daily with short articles of 500 words. Now the short articles won’t give you an edge. They simply don’t help you in getting better search rankings. Google wants to give the BEST information to its users, and it’s giving more importance to the sites that are publishing in-depth and evergreen articles. So when you are just starting out, instead of writing 10 short articles in a month, write just 2 in-depth articles. It can really help you in the long run. 4. Write Lots of Posts… For Others One of the common complaints I hear from new bloggers is that “ I’m not getting enough traffic. ” Well, how do you get more traffic if you are writing just for your own blog? Write for other blogs, do guest blogging and increase your online reach. Build some quality links and increase your overall domain authority. That’s how you get traffic. That’s how you improve your overall search rankings for any keyword you are targeting for. Don’t make a mistake of writing just for your own blogs. That’s a biggest blogging mistake anyone can make especially in the beginning. 5. Build Some Authority In online, people simply don’t buy from strangers. They only buy from those whom they trust or already have connections with. It all boils down to one thing: trust and authority. Without building authority, trying to increase your blog traffic is just a waste of time. Even if you bring a lot of traffic, you will surely struggle to make sales online. That’s the reason why you should start focusing on growing your online authority from day one. Here are few quick tips to build authority online. Don’t recommend the products or services you personally don’t use. NEVER promote a product just for the sake of money. If you focus on your audience, they will take care of your business. It’s as simple as that. Get testimonials from the experts. Do interviews with them. Ask them to tell few nice things about your content or site. It will all add up in the long run. Write guest posts for top blogs and showcase the portfolio on your blog’s home page. If people see your guest posts landing on top blogs, they think you have some skills, so they don’t hesitate to read your stuff. 6. It’s Useless To Focus on SEO When You Are Just Starting Out SEO is a HUGE ocean. If you are just starting out, focusing on SEO to increase your traffic is a waste of time. Why? You might get penalized by keyword stuffing or quickly building bad backlinks. You never know what SEO mistakes you are making unless you gain some basic SEO skills. That’s the reason why you should forget about SEO in the beginning and just focus on writing engaging content for your readers. Make your content so good that your readers share it on social media , and you will attract backlinks from other blogs naturally. SEO is all about quality backlinks and proper keyword research . Unless you know those two factors very well, focusing on SEO doesn’t give you any good results. 7. Connect With The Influencers Having connections with the influencers and top bloggers in your industry can help you with the following things. It can help you leverage their blog traffic It can help you increase your sales (whenever they name drop you) It can help you boost your expertise And the above 3 factors are enough to build a highly successful blog really quickly. Always find ways to network with the influencers in your field. Instead of seeking their help, think about how you can offer them help for free. And always get in touch with them either via social media or email. Email outreach is really essential to take your blog from zero to hero. 8. Focus On Just #1 Website Traffic Source Really, there are so many ways to increase traffic to a website or blog. Social media, email list, guest posting, videos, content marketing, blog commenting, email outreach and the list goes on and on and on. And everyone loves traffic. That’s why most beginners spend their time on being everywhere to get more traffic to their sites. But that’s a surefire way to burn out. What happens when you spend most of your time on every traffic source under the sun and don’t get good results as you expect? You will assume that driving traffic to a blog is hard, and you will eventually quit. That’s why focus on just 1 traffic source at a time. Be it social media, content marketing or SEO. Focus on one traffic source, spend all your time on it and you will eventually become so good at it that you will see better results. Try every traffic source for a month or two. Then, focus on another one and so on. That’s how your site traffic will grow in less than a year. 9. Monetize Your Blog From Day 1 The best way to monetize your blog is to create content, drive traffic and then monetize that traffic, right? Wrong! Although blog monetization strategy differs from niche to niche, monetizing your blog from the beginning is often the most effective way to best define your target audience. Once you clearly know what your target audience wants, you can create more laser focused content, drive more targeted visitors and attract more sales to your sites. On the other hand, if you wait until you get a certain amount of traffic and then monetize, you may fail to grab the attention of right people. What happens if you attract random website traffic? You will struggle to make sales! So think about how to monetize your blog’s traffic from day one. continue reading HERE source: www.eaglegist.com/2017/04/take-your-blog-from-zero-to-hero.html?m=1 |

The Internet is quite a deceiving place, right? You might be tricked easily if you don't use your head. That's why I've always paid attention to testimonials from other people when they describe advantages and disadvantages of this or that product or service it can really help to decide whether to buy it or not. But recently I've found this site https://elfsight.com/testimonials-slider-widget/ where one can form the whole bunch of positive testimonials to make every site look more trustworthy. Guess I gonna be more careful now reading different reviews and testimonials. |
