Then you have come to the right place. In my entire blogging life, one thing I have noticed is that, if a blog isn’t SEO optimized, it’s of no use.  SEO is a very powerful thing which must be used carefully. Before starting, I would request you to bookmark this post, as this post is a valuable reference you will need later. Also note that these tips will work 100% but will take a little time to implement.

1)      Blog Content (NEW AND BETTER TIPS)

·         Write what the readers want to read

Blogging is basically spreading knowledge. But while doing this, you must make sure that whatever you are writing is what the readers want to read. You might post about Lions, but the critics like Tigers. So ultimately you are at loss.

·        Don’t write off the topic things

Readers general come to your blog if they find the article interesting. But if you give them something else than what they are expecting, then it is likely that they will stop reading. 35% of readers generally quit reading after such things. For e.g. while writing about a new soap, you might suddenly write about the shampoo from the same company. Now the people want to hear about the soap. So the post dissatisfies them.

2)      Title, Heading , Sub Heading and Minor Heading

·         Keep the title of the post as Interesting as possible

Almost all of the readers come to the blog after reading the title of the post. So the title can then be kept such that the Readers are forced to read it.

Here are two types of titles –

1.       How to Impress a Girl

Vs.

2.       5 Most Effective Tips to Impress a Girl

So to make this work, you must use different types of headings all over the post.

Remember for this method you need to have a few number of posts as to create a backlink of them.

·         Use a Quote or a Heading to display a Off-topic Backlink

You can use a Quote or a heading to present a backlink to a post which is off the post topic. This way the readers don’t get confused while reading and feel the urge to open the backlink. For e.g. if you writing a Review on a game, you can create a backlink for a Movie review inside a quote or a heading.

4)      Add Recent Posts, Random Posts and Popular Posts on your blog

·         Recent Posts

These will simply act as a very effective self advertising method to follow. Readers will get a hint of the post and open the article if they find it attractive.
