Scripture on Various Sites by 2005. Here, on the blog, I write for almost 5 years. Before I had another blog on the free platform and I wrote for other sites. I've done a lot of mistakes - some technical things about organizing - and spent hundreds of hours working on my blog. Over the years I have received more and more questions from novice bloggers. How to develop your blog? How Can I Make Money Quickly? How fast can I earn from a blog? And other.
I have gathered some ideas from my experience of how a blog can be developed. It's not a manual, but rather some of the problems I struggled with at some point or now. Tips for bloggers, things to do and things to avoid: Tips for a blogger at the top Content is more important than design. Do not base your blog on a catchy design if you do not have useful, interesting, attractive content. And this can be learned. See my blogger book list as well. Choose a nice look, a quality logo (see also article on how to make logos for bloggers) and it's enough for the moment. How often can you write? Make a program and keep up with it (it should be at least 2 times a week.) Better two articles a week to keep than writing one daily for 10 days and then disappearing within the next two months. Readers will notice your disappearance Do not ask other bloggers for backlinks if you have not published anything on the site and I am bothering when receiving such requests I recommend you to ask for links from blogs that are on a similar level I do not think that you are going to focus on writing content, but do not concentrate on monetization if you have not posted anything on the site, honestly, what probability do you think you will earn if you have not given anything? other bloggers, or influencers to share your articles, you can ask them for your articles, ask them to give you an interview, etc. If you are going to send emails to each article by asking let them pr you risk creating a negative image. Plus they will stop helping you at some point. Do not rely on gift traffic from another blogger (or more). Even if another blogger or influencer helps you, do not rely on raising your blog from this. Repeat: The only way to raise a blog is to write content (articles) and strive to do it better. What do you want to write about? Define themes that you will approach and choose them as categories of the blog. It respects this strategy. If you have a blog about photography it's stupid to write about couple and cat grooming and programming in PHP. Decide what niche (niches) you want to approach. When you feel that you are no longer happy with it / they change the direction of the blog, but do it consciously. Do not exaggerate with the share on Facebook. If you share your articles on all Facebook pages, groups and the profile of your Friends, you will become aggressive. Do not be naive, it will not bring you visitors, but you will only create a negative image. The exception is when you are very watched on Facebook. Do not spy on email. If someone has not subscribed to your blog, DO NOT SEND YOUR EMAIL ARTICLES. Learn to write a title in a reasonably attractive way. Ideas also in the blogger book list here or here. Read what you wrote, out loud. That's before publishing the article. If it does not sound good, rewrite the sentence. Rewrite the article until you're satisfied. Usually this means rewriting it a few times. When you think it's good, publish it. There may be mistakes, you can fix them later. It does not have to be perfect. Helps other influences and bloggers. Share them on articles if they're good, give them a like, tweet or leave a comment. You will gradually be noticed. Be careful not to cross the other side. Do not become a pussycatcher. Do not open five blogs at once. Start one, pick a name that makes sense and build it. When it's big enough, you can start another project. Being a blogger on 5 blogs is not easy. You will break into too many pieces and risk not doing anything good. Get in touch with other bloggers. It's called networking. See what events are there and show up there. Make connections with them. Target especially those in your niche. Respect your readers. If you promise them something (for example, you will write daily for a month) keep promise. Or let him know you have not succeeded and decided to give up. Do not take them off, ignoring the promise you made-0. Invest in the blog. At first only time and energy. As you allow, you will also need to invest money. Do a SEO (Search Engine Optimization) strategy. She's working on her. Ideas here or to a search on Google after SEO. Make your SMO (Social Media Optimization) strategy. She's working on her. Start ideas here or here. Works daily on your blog. You do not have to write daily. There are other tasks you can handle (see section 26). Become visible both online and offline. Engage in projects and online communities or face-to-face to ensure visibility and exposure. Do not leave spam comments to others on your blog. I recommend the comments policy from my blog for ideas. Do not let your blog be just a collection of separate articles. Put links between your articles there one
