Blogging, Technology Me and Analyzing Modern Design
17 Sep
Prepare your blogs as a pro means “you should prepare and present your blog with good looking and high quality content” - even you are new blogger and not on that level yet. Factors like good design, good content, easy navigation and create a unique identity must be consider when you start blogging. Same as you, your blogs need all these complimentary factors. For an example, you need a tie for job interview, Nike shirt for running or other complimentary equipment just for different situation. Then you should consider preparing your blogs for certain situation.
How you can prepare your blogs as a pro, below some of my observation in blogging world - what other successful and pro blogger done to maintain their blogs and readership.
1 - Professional blog design - often problogger draw reader attention with their blogs design. Where all the design is totally different from other blogs, that make them standing out from other normal bloggers. Normally they will customize the blog appearance from the blogs layout, design and templates. All the design and appearance also affect the level of success of any blogs.
For me visitor first impression will be your blog design, that is your “house” where the first landing pages is your design. Top blog usually had a clean design, more professional look where the design enhances the content. If there put an advertisement, all the advertisement on the right place and placed strategically and will not distract visitor attention.
2 - Good content - good blogs content is a “writing skill call to action”. Here you can encourage, give incentive, bait your readers and push them to read your blogs content. Even you offering the same content as other blogs, but the way you elaborate the ideas give your reader more satisfaction.
To create good content blogs, you should “hit big” if you can mastered the topic. Give your readers the best explanation with great story teller attitude. Sure the reader will remember you and spread about your blogs to their family, member and community. Hope so they do it. Here you can brand your blog, where you can gets known - your blogs will gets know for a reason, that will be your blogs content.
3 - Create a value - give a good value to your readers with your blogs, either by your content, post or design. Why “value”? For me a good blogs “value” will make other love you and feel needed to you. It’s great to create a value blogs. Don’t ever target to monetize your blog in 1-2 month when you start blogging, just focus to give a value first.
4 - Passion - Blogging need a passion, I mean here enough passion on what you’re doing. Passion is all about how much you care about your blogs and topic. If you had enough passion, creating a good blogs is not a big problem to you. Actually passion will motivate you. Head over to other successful blogs, browse and read what they offering. Maybe you will noticed that the main discussion maybe on the same topic all over again. That is a passion, only talk about what they know and could share with other.
5 - Unique - Create a unique blogs will make your blogs stand out from the blogger-sphere crowd. A unique identity will make help your readers remember you. Unique identity can be created by your blog design, informative article, communication between you and the reader or by rewarding your reader. Yes, these strategies already implemented by other successful blogger, why we don’t try it.
6 - Networking - Use social media networking or get to know other blogs that have same niche content with you to attract readers. Give a visit to other blogs, leave a comments can simple help you build networking. Other way join Mybloglog or Blogcatalog to get know other bloggers. I make myself to join the big community blogs in MyBlogLog, browse the entire member there and give a visit to other blogs, give a comments if the topic really interesting.
All the list are my personal observation on current successful blogger, maybe what I list here not same as you thinking, since English not my first language, As you may have notice, my English or grammar is poor - please forgive me. Did you had any other opinion on how to prepare your blogs as pro, you can drop a comments below, maybe we can share with each other here.
