With the upcoming potential of evergreen rewards on InLeo, it's time to think about how we can write and create pieces of content that attract readers for years to come.
Let's be honest...This is much easier said than done!
I came across a little graphic that we created a few years ago, and I thought this would be a great topic for tonight.
Let's look into 5 ways to make our blogs better!
1. Focus On The Title
A little shock and awe can go a long way here. There are some old school methods of creating great titles that pull viewers in, for me it's simple...Make it relevant and don't be boring.
"5 Insider Tips To......." is relevant and creates curiosity.
"My Opinion On Crypto Market..." is as boring as it gets.
2. Use Short, Readable Paragraphs
There...Is...Nothing...Worst...That....A....Paragraph....That...Has...No.....Breaks! A massive block of text will just get ignored. Heck the entire 'TLDR' (too long didn't read) is a direct result of this.
I believe Robin Sharma said it best.."Simplicity is the trademark of genius". Keep things simple and to the point. No need to go on and on and on...
3. Use Images and/or Videos
Videos are a no brainer. Shorter videos are even better lol
And there is a reason I try to stick images in all my blog posts....It captures attention and breaks up the text blocks.
(Mind blowing information....I know!!!!)
4. Write Like You Talk!
I credit this piece of advice to Jeffrey Gitomer. One of my favorite authors of all time used to talk about how he wrote like he talked. It was never meant to be perfect english, structured like you were writing a scientific paper or anything....
You'll notice I use a lot of ........... Periods in my blog posts. I also might not have the best use and command of the english language. Yet, here I am, 25 years after I started writing...Still writing.
Talk like a real person, not a robot...Or....AI lol
5. Answer Every Comment
There is just no excuse for not responding to your audience. I get it, life happens...But on the blockchain, we thrive off the social interaction.
If someone takes time out of their day to come to your blog, and leave a thought or two...My goodness, just respond to them. It's the least we can do and guess what it does in the long run?
It creates loyal readers, long time fans and relationships for the years to come.
Is this an exhaustive list? My goodness no. But these tips have helped me along the journey and I know they will be able to help you!
