How To Write Perfect Blog Posts? Writing on a blog is like writing a magazine. Just like building a new web site, you need content on your blog to get people to be interested to read your blog. The single most important thing in an article is the title when it comes to writing.

How To Title a Blog

The title is basically the name that you will give to your blog. This title is different from the title you use for each article you post. For instant, the title of this blog is called Craft Money Tree. When choosing a title for your blog, you want to choose something that is related to what your niche is about.

For my case, I really wanted to create a blog to share my experience with everyone and help them to build their own money tree, that was the reason I named my blog Craft Money Tree.

When deciding on your blog title, if possible you should also try to use your keyword research to target the best keyword or phrase to use in the title of your blog.

Choosing Great Blog Article Titles

In my experience, the best article titles are the ones that capture both search engine traffic and audience at the same time. It is always recommended to insert keywords into your title to get the maximum exposure from Google search.

For instance, if you want to start the keyword “make money”. You must have the word “make money” in your title. For example, “10 ways to make money online”. The tricky part in choosing titles is it also must be attractive to your readers at the same time to ensure they are interested in the topic.

It will take you some time to practice it and find out what titles are great for your blog. The best way to find out is to install tracking plugins on your blog to see what your readers love to read on your blog.

Using Keyword Effectively On Your Articles

As with any website you want to always optimize your website pages to get high ranking in search engines. To do so, you want to repeat the keyword in your article a few times in the text of the article itself. Even if you are simply posting a simple announcement post, you can write a brief introduction about yourself and mention the keyword once or twice in the introduction.

Writing Articles On Blogs

Writing can sometimes seem like a daunting task to many, if you are new to it. I couldn’t agree more as it requires oneself to have a creative mind and have a strong command of English. However, learning how to write is THE most important skill to learn to make money online. In my experience it’s always great to write articles that are right to the point and straight forward.

To get ideas for your articles, you can actually visit article directories like EzineArticles.com to see what others are writing about in your niche. Or perhaps, while you were outside and some how got an idea for a topic to write about you may also want to pin down those thoughts on a piece of paper. Once you are back home, you can refer to that paper for ideas on your topics.

Recommended Number Of Words Per Article

When writing an article on a blog, it actually is not much different from a website. Thus, an article should always be in the range from 200 to 1,000 words of unique relevant content. However, do not freak out if you just could not squeeze out 100 words just take your time to write and it will slowing get easier as you practice more Just remember it is always better to provide quality than to rush into it and just publish it.

While writing your article, do always remember to apply and include the keyword phrases within the article content to optimize your article to search engines.

There are no rules in blogging, so you are free to write as you see fit for your blog site. However, from my experience a long article with great content is always the best for any blog.

What To Write About?

Well you definitely do not want to write rubbish on your blog. Before you set off to get yourself into writing the topic of your article, you must first look at the keyword research that led you to discover the niche within your blog.

Begin with that keyword research and start writing based on what are the best keywords in your list.

When you start expanding on the topic and write to a point you no longer have any more ideas, you can start offering opinions on the things you just wrote about to add in more words.

Reading other people’s blog like mine will also help you generate ideas for your articles but you have to be careful not to copy people’s content as that is not right.

Do also spend some time to think about how to get your articles ranked well in Search Engine Results Pages (SERPs). Get topics from your keyword research data, and input the phrase all over your articles.

How To Label Categories

The no.1 common mistake made by many bloggers is they always forget to categorize their post and most often people would categorize their post under “uncategorized” which is really wrong! It is always a good idea to break your blog up into different categories to create a nice filing system within your articles.

This will also allow your readers to find what you have posted on specific topics that you have written on your blog. More importantly, tagging your articles also helps in search engine rankings too. If you fail to tag your article with the right keywords, you are missing a great opportunity to get your articles ranked high in search engines.

Linking It Right On Your Blog

If you are currently running a blog and have no links on your blog, you are basically throwing all your chances of making money down the drain. It is really important to create links on your blog. Basically there are two types of links you can create on your articles. One of them is what we called an internal links and the other is the external links.

Tips On Internal Links

At most times, internal links are used to inform your readers of previous articles you have written but it can also be used to trick search engine into acknowledging the keyword is related to a posted article.

Here’s an example of how you can let search engines know that an article is important to a keyword.

E.g. This article on Make Money Online is a great article to read on. If you noticed I used the keyword “Make Money Online” as the keyword to link to the article.

What this will do is that it will inform search engine spiders that the keyword Make Money Online is related to that link and the chances of being ranked higher on a search would be higher if you do this type of internal linking.

However a word of caution, you are not allowed to overdo it as search engines will know and it will just make things worse if you over do it.

Tips On External Links

For external links, I would always recommend everyone to insert affiliate links within the post to sell affiliate products.

Frequency Of Posting

Blogging on a blog can be a real tiring thing to do on a daily basis especially so when people are more demanding now in today’s world. They expect more from your blog, and in order to satisfy them you need to try to post a new article to your blog every day!

Yes my friend it may sound crazy but if you fail to do that, the more you delay, the chances your readers not coming back to your blog would also be higher. That is what I realized whenever I go for my holiday trips and forgot to post on my blog.

The bare minimum is there should be a post every 2 to 3 days within the week, making it 3 posts a week. However, you do not want to post all three at one go but you want to give it some delay to keep people interested. Like what I have just done by breaking this long article into a 4 part series.

Your main motive in frequently updating your blog is that you have to give your readers a sense that your blog is been actively maintained and there is always fresh content to read. This will also keep search engine spiders coming back regularly which mean better rankings for you.

Handling Comments

It is a real common problem that you will receive tons of spam comments when you start blogging on your blog. Do not panic as its normal to receive them, in fact the more you receive means you are doing something right as you are getting more attention on the internet All blog platforms have different ways to filter away comments but always try to have a spam filter
installed into your blog site if possible to save you all the trouble of filtering them yourself. If you have disabled comments on your blog, I would highly recommend you to enable it as it’s the best way to interact with your readers.

When you enable comments, do remember to enable the moderating mode so that you do not simply allow spam message to hit onto your blog site. Do note when you approve comments, try to avoid allowing your readers to insert hyperlinks in the messages that would affect your rankings.
