WHAT YOU SHOULD INCLUDE IN EVERY BLOG POST

January 18, 2021 97 Comments

Hello Everyone,

When I decided to start a blog, I told myself to just focus on the launching part and figure out the rest later on. Little did I know what was ahead of me, I never thought that writing one blog post had so much more entailed than just hitting publish. A blog post has much more entailed than just typing down words and sharing it to your readers, which I did learn along the way after making my share of many mistakes. So what should a blog post have? Every blog post requires certain properties for it to make a good post and here are some points on what you should include in every blog post.

Disclaimer: I am not saying that these are the only things you should include in every blog post because I know there are lots more out there and that we learn as we go. My posts are not perfect and I am just sharing what has worked for me and how I use them in my blog posts.

What makes a good blog post?

Should have images
Should be easy to read
Have good SEO
Good grammar
Have headings
Gets you more traffic

Now that you know what a good blog post is let’s get on with it and see what to include in every blog post.

So you have thought about it for a while and you’re now ready to start your own blog. But you want to know where to start and how to go about it. When I started my blog, I failed the first time due to over-thinking things and wanting everything to be perfect. Plus I never gave myself time to really think it through hence starting all-over again the second time which I don’t regret one bit. Here is how to start a blog,simple beginner’s guide.

Choose a niche

Your niche is what your blog will be about, what will you be writing about and do you have enough content about that particular subject. Choose one that you are passionate about and love doing and that way, you will enjoy writing your blog posts without getting fed up fast. Okay once you have your niche;

Choose a blog name

There are very many blogs every where and it all comes to the name. I chose my blog name using my name because I am not planning to change it at all and that’s who I am but if you want to have something more do it and make sure you will still love it 3 years down the line. You should also know that the name you have chosen may already be taken and that’s why this second step has to do with a lot of thinking and re-thinking. Once you have found your blog name, you need to find your self a web host.
