Interesting Tips On How To Spice Up A Boring Blog Life by lifeisgood4real: 1:11am On Oct 23, 2016
There is nothing worse than coming across a boring blog, forgive me but the difficult thing is that what is boring to one person might be interesting to another. Therefore, you really need to focus on your readers when creating new posts for your blog.

If you really want your blog to be successful, you cannot simply expect your day to day activities to be enough information to keep the readers interested. If you post that you went to the mall, came home, and then ate dinner, you can expect the readers to be bored out of their minds.

If you find humour in your activities or if you tell them in an interesting manner, be creative about it, you might keep their attention even when using the same day to day activities to write your blog post. If you want to spice up a boring blog, you can also use these tips to get things moving in the right direction.



Allow Comments

One big mistake boring bloggers make is not allowing comments on their blog, yes some do that, you should always allow people to comment on your blog. You may not always like what they have to say, but their comments alone will help your blog seem more interesting to anyone who reads it for the first time. Once one person makes a comment, others will be more likely to comment as well. This will help get things going and make your blog a place for ideas for others.

Ask Questions

Another great way to make your readers participate is to ask them open-ended questions. You can do this throughout your blog or at the end. This will be seen by readers as an open invitation to respond. Your questions will get them thinking about what you have to say, whether or not they respond. They will be more likely to come back to your blog to read more about your comments later on. Everyone has an opinion on everything, so go ahead and ask your readers straight out what theirs is.Am I making sense? Lol

Use Pictures

If you want to connect more with your readers and keep them interested, try adding pictures to your blog. Adding pictures is simple through your blogging software. Get a digital camera, even your phone can do the magic, so you can update your pictures frequently. By adding pictures that go along best with the content of your posts, you will be connecting with your readers on a more intense level. They will be more entertained and you will have a more interesting blog. Just be sure that you don’t overdo it on the pictures and place them in appropriate places.

Be Personal

When writing your posts, you should always act as if you were talking to a great friend. Some people create boring blogs by writing as if they were writing a textbook. This is a huge mistake. People most often read blogs because they want to be entertained or gather interesting information or opinions. They do not want to read a blog that sounds like a textbook. Try to be a little personal in your blog. Let your own personality shine through. Allow your individual humour to be seen in each post. Your readers will appreciate your honesty and love you for your casual style.

Comment on other blogs

If you want to connect more with your readers and keep them interested in yours, try commenting on other blogs, leaving useful comments gets you seen. Leaving valid comments can make people pay more attention to you, as soon as you do so, you give your blog the opportunity to be found by others, and thereby attracting them back to your own and also dropping a comment for you.

Use these great tips to spice up your blog if it is hitting the boring stretch. A boring blog is one that pains people to read. Keep in mind that successful blogs will make people laugh, think, contemplate, and gain useful information. You can do all of this using these tips. So, get to work and completely transform your boring blog today! You will see an improvement in your traffic and likely enjoy blogging a lot more than before.

Blogs, especially in Nigeria have been abused. A 10 year old wants to set up a blog in hopes to become Linda Ikeji someday and he goes about it wrongly. Filling the page up with series of ads (related and non related), gory and sexual contents, no humor whatsoever, series of annoying grammatical blunders etc. No intellectual content whatsoever! angry

Blogs to me are a waste of time these days..#MyOpinion. Argue with your Monica

Usually if you offer well detailed content that's valuable, resourceful and readers find helpful: your blog will attract a lot of readers and the engagement on your blog will skyrocket.

I always ensure I write posts that are epic and cannot be found anywhere else on the internet. And so far, so good: it has been awesome experience!
