Learning How To Grow Your Blog

By Shirley Cox


Once you have your blog set up with a domain and you think that the audience are going to enjoy reading your content, you may be thinking that you can sit back and watch the page views escalating. However, unfortunately, it doesn't work like this. Learning how to grow your blog is essential, otherwise it will just be lost out there.

It can take time in the initial stages learning how to draw people towards the website. You have to ask yourself why people want to read the content instead of something that someone else has written. It is something that everyone struggles with. However, over time, you will find the answer. It is different for everyone.

If you are a lawyer, you will want to write more about what you can expect from your service. You may write about various scenarios related to law. You obviously have to look into which social media site to publish onto. You also have to be aware of the type of content. Most people will want to read and are not bothered by the pretty colors of the blog.

You need to decide more on the audience and who is going to be viewing your content. When it is a middle aged audience who are looking at images of food and decorating, you will want to place images on Pinterest and Instagram. These are good social media networks to think about because they contain images. Twitter won't be effective in a case like this because you don't want to describe recipes.

You may want to find people who will be interested in your blog in other channels, such as other food groups and forums. When you comment, make sure that you leave the website address behind. It is a good idea to connect with other bloggers. It is a lot of work to get to this point, but you will begin to notice the different.

Images can help with the sharing or social media. They usually catch the attention of people a little more. There may be certain things that you want to emphasize and you will use various methods to make these areas stand out more than others. You can tell people about something specific in a newsletter. You can refer them to the post from your social media post.

Bloggers who are pushy, creating pop ups when a person logs onto the site will send their subscribers away. You can't force people to join your social media page or to sign up with them. However, you can subtly encourage someone to share. You can add sharing buttons with a slogan underneath the article.

Many people will share an article, but when there is no sharing button, you will lose out. Make sure that you have a visible button which allows the person to share your content. This is not a way of being pushy. You are simply encouraging them to like what you have written about.
