When it comes to Blog Content, there are tons of blogs out there.  Today’s post is 3 Reasons Why Your Blog Sucks!  Perhaps you’re not getting any readers to your Blog Content and you want to attract more of them, but where do you start?

It’s Not Personal
Contrary to popular belief, blogging IS personal.  Some so called “Gurus” make the claim that you don’t want to be Personal, or at the least too Personal.  Why is this a lie?  The average person comes to your blog to read your insights, your thoughts on a particular subject.  They like how you write and enjoy your thoughts.  They might even share in the same thought process as you.

If you’re trying to write a blog based on Entrepreneurship and you’re afraid to share your current income, let alone your income goals, people won’t listen to you.  At least not very many.  What about Debt?  Should you share your debt with others?  Sure, why not, especially if you have a monetary goal that you want to obtain.  This gives people a clear view of your success in the market.  Have you succeeded in getting rid of that debt?  Have you succeeded in achieving that dream of traveling all over the world?

There Is No Call To Action
How many blog post have you read that never asked you any questions?  How many blog post have you read that never asked you to “Leave a Comment?”  If you don’t ask, then they won’t know what’s expected.  When it comes to Blog Content, you’ve got to create that opportunity for your readers to leave their opinion.  This is yet another way to make it Personal.

You Never Edit
I don’t know about you, but the last thing I want to read, is a blog post that has a lot of errors in it.  I certainly don’t want to read a blog that has a bunch of abbreviations associated with it, such as the ones you’d use during an online chat session with a friend.  Blog Content is meant to be personal, but it’s also meant to be professional.  If you’re not going to at least make a small attempt to stand out from the crowd, then why should we bother reading your blog?

You Never Optimize
Blog Content should always be optimized.  What do I mean by Optimized?  I mean SEO (Search Engine Optimization.)  I’ll share with you a few tips you can start implementing today to help boost your rankings.  1) Add video and images that relate to your Blog Content.  Google loves video and images.  2) Link to your other blog post if there is a related post to what you talked about within that post.  It helps to tell Google what’s important on your blog.  3) Always base your post on particular Keywords, use the Google Keyword Tool to help with that.  4) Don’t forget Backlinks.  The simple act of sharing this post to Facebook, or Twitter, creates a Backlink.  If your Blog Content is being shared, Google will notice that.

So there you have it, Blog Content and 4 Reasons Why Your Blog Sucks.  If you only take one thing away from this article today, always remember to edit.  Do you think that J. K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series would have been as successful as it was if she hadn’t edited?  Even then, there are a few mistakes she or the editors missed.  No one is perfect, but at least make an attempt.
