How to make a Quality Blog Post

For bloggers this has been one of the toughest jobs one needs to overcome. For a few months that I have been blogging I have created some post that did not catch a lot of readers and I have also copied some content during the earlier days of my blogging career. I have created this post because I want to place it on my blog for other people to read it and I want to keep myself reminded of it from time to time.




So here are my own tips on HOW TO MAKE A QUALITY BLOG POST:

  1. Best way to start creating your post is of course is to select a topic. While you are still planning of writing a post for you blog, try to think a topic as well. 
  2. Research on the topic that you want to write about, try reading on some of the bloggers post and compare all their comments and reviews, and then come up with your own opinion and make your own review about it based on your own research. 
  3. After you are done with your research, create a plan on how you would want your post to look like, prepare all the necessary stuff like bookmarking buttons and links to the blog post that you have visited or refer to them on your post. In short create a concept on what you post should be. 
  4. After all that is done, it's time to write, and when you write something there is always an introduction, now when you write your intro, make an intro that would make your readers want to read more, make them interested, best way to do that is to write it in your own words, no fancy-shmancy, just plain writing, just like talking to a person, think what is the reason why I have created this post, what made me write this article, and then after that everything will follow.
  5. When you are done with your introduction, don't forget to review it as it is important in convincing your readers to continue on reading the whole article. Now, writing the body of the article, when writing the body of the article, this would not be hard because you already have researched about it, but still try to put your thoughts in words more plainly, just use small paragraphs, easy to understand words, and also remember the links, this is where you put your links to other blog post, don't forget to put all the necessary stuff in here, pictures, videos, but don't put unrelated videos or pictures. This would be important because it will help put more value to your post. 
  6. After that is done, don't forget to review the your article. 
  7. Now it's time to create a Title to for your article. How to create a Good Title for your Blog Post? Okay, this one is hard to do as this is also one of the biggest factors in blogging, it will determine where your blog post will rest in Search Engine Results. My tip for this one to think about a catchy phrase which you think will make the reader think it is an interesting article. 
  8. Now, after that here comes tagging or labeling, use Google Adwords if you are unsure of what labels to put that is related to you article, Adwords will help you in that field. Just use meta keywords and descriptive tags.
  9. Finally, Publish it!! 
So, those are my 9 tips on HOW TO MAKE A QUALITY BLOG POST. Hope it will be of good use to you.. Thanks! :)) Just keep on posting.

Earn Money thru Blogging




This post is a compilation of all the stuff that I have encountered within the months that I have been blogging.
I'm gonna post something that I think is worth the time posting, this post is going to be pointed towards how to
make money thru blogging.

Now, to make money thru blogging is not an easy task and it is definitely not one of those get-rich-quick-scheme bogus
that some other people brag about. If you have spent countless hours and days trying to make your blog look better and attract readers to subscribe to your feed, well the money part won't be that far away from you.

You would have to have a descent number of readers, maybe 50 or a 100 would make the cut. You can earn money from that thru putting ads by Google on you Feedburner feeds. But first, you must have a good topic for your blog. Something that you think is a bit interesting, something that you think people would look up for in the internet. And then you must do the SEO thing too. SEO could be the trickiest part in the whole process.

Then, after you succeed in making your blog exist in the blogosphere or atleast in the category that you intended for your blog. That is the time that you can slap some banner on your blog. But remember to not place ads if your blog is not yet getting traffic or else it would make it harder your blog to rise up. Adsense can be a weight to your blog and drag it down if it doesn't have enough traffic yet.

The amount of money that earn from blogging depends on a lot of different factors, because actually there a lot of things on the internet that you do to make money using your blog. You can put banners, you can do affiliate marketing, or you can make sponsored reviews, but you have to sign up for those sites first and pass all the requirement for you to get some assignments.

Now, getting an assignment from a sponsored review site is also a hard thing to do, because there are some sites that has a lot of requirements just for your blog to pass the screening process. Editors will screen your blogs, and they will look at your blog to see if it passes. Then after that your on your way to earning some serious cash. I am not sure if I have included everything there is to know about blogging in this post. But these is are all I can think of as of the moment. Thanks.
