Pop Blogging Tips: 5 Things to Do To Create A Great Content

Postby grecy0905 » 16 Oct 2016, 18:13

Have you been writing for so long with your personal blog and it does not drive any traffic? Have you been writing in a revenue sharing sites but you noticed you are not getting enough views to make a paycheck? Have you thought to yourself that you might did something wrong in creating your content? There are lots of questions but one thing is for sure, it is not too late to make a great content. If it is not great, then good content. Every good content with a steady learning and reading could be a great content someday. Do you want to start now?

I am a blogger, but I have to admit, I have few contents that I am proud to say a great content. How to create a great content to earn you more with blogging? What are the things that people want to read from a blog?

1. People loves to read true stories. Everyone is basing their decision to some reviews from the people who really experienced a certain product or service. If you are sharing your true stories, for sure you gain readers. You can even gain subscribers. It is not depending on how it is written actually, but how the people read your views.

2. People appreciates Tutorials. At present days, people research for DIY and Tutorials to survive in a day. People learn to cook because of some tutorials at YouTube. They learned how to do their makeup, put up a small business, to exercise, and even to become a person that they are now. Without tutorials, they will still continue to do the old strategies to survive or might hire someone to do it for them, join a group for exercise and everything. Tutorials help them to stand on their own. Even if the tutorials used blog or video blogging, it works the same because it surely saved someones life. Find things that will apply on you.

3. Great and honest reviews is a Must. We can find honest reviews with Tutorials because for sure, the person who did the tutorials experienced it first before sharing it. From tutorials, people will able to trust what they read, especially with video blogging. You need to be honest to gain followers. Regardless of how bad your reviews, experienced count so be honest.

4. Straight to the point and easy to understand "What is" content/articles. "What is" are those articles that answers question about certain things like "what is kidney stone" or if you type Kidney stone, you will be given an article. Health related articles could be time consuming if you use medical terms without a certain explanation. What do we know with the word Acute pancreatitis if we will not include to say that it is an inflammation of the pancreas. The reader will leave an article if it involves a lot of serious terms that you failed to explain the meaning. If you explain in a layman's term, readers will surely understand it. Being straight to the point on the other hand means you do not use any flowery words just to make your article to look long and serious. Being direct to the point means you are hitting on the topic to answer the questions because people do not click your article if they did not find some answers on it. Let the answer be in your article, always.

5. Using Pictures On and In between your Content. I love pictures. Out of 10 people I asked today if they love pictures in my blogs, all of them said yes. Pictures, edited or not are great addition to make your articles be read. If you choose a great quality of pictures, people might stuck looking at those pictures but for sure they will be curious of what truly the picture is doing on that article. If you see a picture of a man with a knife, full of blood and seems chasing a lady in Google Images, surely you will click on the picture and read the articles right? That's it, you need a great quality picture that you own to help your article to be of great content.

Great post. You have brought up some very good points. People do love to read about true and personal experiences. Especially, if it is something that the person can relate to. It is nice to know that you are not alone in your experiences or feelings. I also think that you need good pictures. I think a picture can capture the essence of your article and it can capture the interest of the reader before they have even began reading it. Keep up the good work @grecy0905

These are really good ideas. I keep my blog 100% honest. If a website is going downhill I will say so, whether that is on my blog or Youtube videos. Yes it may hurt me or mean no more referrals to a website but I would rather be honest about it. I think true stories are great too. I do talk about personal stuff on my online income blog sometimes but it doesn't feel like always the time or place for that. And pictures! Goodness I need to get on that bandwagon. Sometimes I add pictures but hardly ever.

Honesty is definitely a must when you do reviews. That's why I love using my personal blog for these things because I have the freedom to be as honest as I can. Reviews will vary depending on your personal experiences any way so I make it a point to write the details.

Blogging becomes so much easier once you write about something you're genuinely interested in, I know a lot of my friends that make good money from their blogs simply because their hearts are into it.

It is because I put myself into my reader. I know exactly what I want as a reader so that are the things I need to give to my reader to bring them to my content and keep them coming back. Thank you. :)

Yes, the videos you are doing at YouTube really attracts the people who are interested in making money online. It makes them excited. And as a person who are really into it, they will believe your reviews because you can have a proof that you are really into it. True stories matter.

Most of us, online users are really depending on reviews. I do it always. I research for product reviews first before buying it. We are learning from other's experiences.

We need to have great content. I learned this for reading blogs of other people at Twitter. When I happened to read it, I don't want to blog anymore because I realized that what I had written were all useless...

I agree and it is easier and comfortable as well. While I was doing that article above, I was having a hard time typing with my phone but I never thought I had more than 300 words written there. No research, everything comes from the thoughts that I experienced.

I think that's a great way of looking at it.

I wouldn't say useless, but yeah, most topics are saturated. A lot of stuff we write has already been covered. I think we just have to try to either dig deeper than the rest or try to address the topic from another angle to keep things fresh.

Driving traffic to the blog is a challenge indeed. Actually people create great content but they neglect the marketing part. Unless you are marketing your content proactively, what's the use?

I agree. You need to let the world know about your writings. It is not easy at first but you really need to step out and let the whole world read your content. Share it on social media and add like minded people in your circle.

Yes because true to life stories serves as a guide and inspiration to others. That is why when i have a story to tell from my past i share it because it will be a guide for someone too and i rely on true to life stories too.

I am not a blogger, but blogging is something that has always fascinated me so your post is really informative and comes in a good time. I think the hardest is getting started, from there on just share our story right?

Yes. I agree that it always hard to start, and even in the middle of it, but if you have the inner passion in writing, you will able to survive one article. The secret is that you need to write constantly or regularly to train yourself. I am doing it though I have to admit I do not have the energy to be that active.

Good advice. We have to update content all the time.

That isn't the hard part for me though. I love to write. The hardest part for me is all the other stuff that goes along with it (especially doing promotion).
