What is your blogging tips for 2015 ?

Hi Amit, here are a few tips:

1- Blog because you love to blog and not for money. But yes you can 'monetize' your blog and make lots of money but not unless you are loving what you are doing.

2- Blog about your favorite topic or passion. When you are passionate about what you're doing, it will feel effortless and you will go a lot further a lot faster.

3- Make sure to 'promote' your content. This is something I failed to do when I started blogging. Don't make the same mistake. If no one sees your stuff, your efforts will be fruitless.

4- Give value in your content.

5- Write like how you speak.

Don't try to be someone else. Be you and you will 'attract' people just like you who will love your content.

Blogs or static sites can rank just as well if they have high quality, valuable content that benefits the site visitor. A static site can be updated just as often (assuming you are using an on page site editor and don't have to download files for editing). However, blogging is a very easy way to update content, add new articles on a daily basis. And, many readers love the blog format. As for how to blog well, always create content that helps your readers in some way, answers their questions. Don't just post to have more content on your site.

Remain passionate and honest in the content you write. Ensure that if you are citing other sources that you provide proper credit and don't be SPAMMY in your content. If your readers like your comment, they will click on the links you have available, just don't over do it.

Also don't stuff keywords just to try and get SEO value in the articles. Make proper use of primary keyword rules and LSI keywords per Google's playbook and you will be fine.

In my experience, it's always most important to create content (be it videos, blog posts, infographics, etc.) for your readers - not search engines. If you give your readers something valuable, they'll share it naturally.

It's also important to be consistent. Don't just create content for the sake of creating content, but make an effort to post quality content often.

1 Find a topic that is useful to others

2 Write about what you love

3 Provide value in your articles

4 Blog consistently

1. Read. Read. Read. The more you read the better your vocabulary, story-telling skills, and creativity.

2. Stay Consistent. Making a blog post here and there is not gonna cut it especially if you don't even have a following yet.

3. Write about what you know and have experienced. People can see through general advice and theory. People want to hear about real life experience that they can relate to.

I'll add what to me is the most important one: Viral marketing.

Now, more than ever, it's important to think beyond merely optimizing your posts for search engines or making them juicy pieces of link-bait. Harness their potential to spread virally.

Edit: I'd also recommend that most bloggers (indeed, most internet marketers) read a primer - at the very least - on grammar.

My focus in 2015 for blogging is to provide unique and relevant content on my blog.

Write new content every single day.

If you are just starting out with blogging, just know that this could be a long term strategy. In the meantime, look at paid advertising so that you do get the ball rolling and making money right away.

There is a thread http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...ss-2015-a.html

For me, the answer is the same as for this: perseverance, perseverance, and perseverance.

Hi amits43,

i would stick with:

- Create value content once per day
- Use social media to spread your content around the www
- Build your list of subscribers (opt in widget for example)
- Use pictures in your content, also videos



Have a nice day

Just write with your heart out, man.

It all boils down to what you want to accomplish in blogging. Are you in it for money? Or are you the type who just wants to express your thoughts in an open platform? Are you gunning to be a fashion blogger or a Sports authority guy in your area? It really depends on your priorities.

All I can tell you is just pour your heart out every time you write. Make sure your content is top notch. Eventually, whatever your priorities or goals are, as long as your content is great, you'll do fine.

Use sites like

feedly. Read more, know more.
http://bufferapp.com

to pull together topics in your niche....

and then write about the most popular ones.

I would say be honest with your readers, if you lie you'll lose your credibility.

Don't be afraid to really share your views on something. If you open up, I think your audience will do the same.

Always provide them with good valuable content that will help them. Get into the mind of your visitors and ask yourself what they would really want to read about.

Be consistent in the quality you deliver and when you deliver it, whether that be daily, weekly etc.

There's a lot of not-so-good advice so as someone who runs several blogs let me clear a few things up.

Sure, go ahead and do this. Just don't expect any financial return out of it. If you want to blog for business you better be sure that there is an audience ready to spend money on whatever you're offering.

"Follow your passion and money will fall into place" is horrible advice and costed me two years of time until I figured out that if I want to make real money you have to look at it from a business standpoint.

If you spend all your time writing than you have no time for promotion. If nobody is reading your blog more content is pointless.

There is not enough time in the day to write valuable, high quality posts and still have time to promote them. Not to mention your readers don't have time to get through it all.

Now here's my advice...

Network. This is going to get your stuff in front of a bunch of eyes quickly, not to mention it's going to get you the natural backlinks Google loves. Although SEO isn't really that important it's still nice to have.

Use your blog as a tool to get people onto your mailing list. My blogs exist solely for this reason. I make money off of the blog itself, sure. But most of the money comes from promoting relevant products to my mailing list.

Remember, if you want to make money you must take a business approach.

Blogging or writing an article should go naturally. It doesn't need to be necessary.
Blogging wouldn't be that hard especially if it is something you are passionate about.
I suggest that if you want to start blogging, start on what interests you because it will be easier to share your interests rather than the other way around.

Hi amits43
If you are just starting with blogging, then here are few tips which will help you to produce better results.
You can create unique and high quality blogs on latest trends.
Make sure your blog provides information to your reader.
Share your blog on social media platforms.
Use proper image in your blog as it can help in attracting users.

Post posts.

Haha, more a tip for myself - it's the one thing I was lacking last year and of course, blogging didn't work out that way

One of the most important aspects about blogging is passion. If you don't enjoy what you're doing then it will show in your work and people will pick up on that. If you have a real thirst for it then, it will stand you in good stead and will probably result in some future earnings.

Enjoy what you're doing and you will see the medium to long terms rewards

Blogging is not, in itself, either a "business model" or indeed a paid activity at all.

Appreciate that publishing content just on your own site/blog isn't a realistic traffic-generation plan: the only traffic that's ever going to bring is some slow, gradual, eventual search-engine traffic, and - as the saying goes - "good luck monetizing that!".

I think it's guest posting as I'm reading a lot and studying this right now...
check out this info:
How to write an effective guest post for high-traffic bloggers

1) Promote yo shit, mayne.

Spend more time on promoting content (to the correct people), than on creating content.

Creating content is important but if you're not getting it in front of the people that matter, who gives a shit?

Not even Gandalf, that's who.


2) Set up each blog post to capture email optins.

This turns Gandalf the Gray into Gandalf the White.

What a great thread. Thanks for everyone that gave away so many blogging secrets!

1. Stay focused.
2. Aim high.

Everything else is secondary

True said blogging has become the lively hood for many these days. Blogging has become the profession. For students rather than doing part time job, blogging the best alternative. They can create their own brand with zero investment.

Lot of opportunities for earning money online via blogging. Affiliate marketing, adsense programs, buysellads, clickbanks etc. all are awesome.

Blogging where earning money has no limits. Day by day increments (depends on time we spend on our blog) . At last all I can say is blogging is incredible.

our big one for 2015.

Send as much PPC traffic to an actual blog post ,and make it easy for them to optin at the top and at the bottom of your blog post.

Spread your blog post like wild fire if you are getting highly targeted traffic to your blog by promoting your content to the right people, then expect amazing results.

And syndicate, syndicate, syndicate, .....that is where the big money comes from.

This is having ridiculously amazing results for us.

Also use TEXT and VIDEO, people still love watching video!

Subjective & good content is the main key for blog so please take care about that.

Depends what your goal is.

If its just to release your spirit, go for it. If you're good people might like it.

If it is to market, write lots, write well, share it on the web.

Mine is a mix of marketing and soul releasing. People don't really like my marketing crap.

Make sure you have a good security set up. It is no fun do but in all the work on the blog to have it vandalized.
