Have you ever read any of my blog posts and said to yourself “Hmm they all follow a certain format”?
Well, you would be correct, and this isn’t by chance, it’s for a reason, because that formula helps website owners attract tens of thousands of visitors day in and day out, like clockwork.
Do you want to know the hidden formula I use on how I write a perfect blog?
Then you have come to the right place, because today I’m going to go A to Z on how to write an amazing blog post for beginners.
Now before we get started, I just wanted to ask you to grab your copy of traffic secrets this is the simple plug n play tool that you can use to get more…
Leads, sales, subscribers, and fans…Without having to break the bank on ads, or have to slave away on social media posting content.
I have a question for you, have you written a blog post before? If you have leave a comment with yes, if you haven’t leave a comment with no.
Because I would love to know what you’re passionate about, and if applying these tips, tricks and techniques have helped you.
1. Start With A Title
Don’t just start writing a blog post, unless you have the exact title, do not write your blog post.
According to www. digitaldoughnut .com 8 out of 10 people read your headline but only 2 out of 10 will click through and read the rest of your article.
It doesn’t matter how amazing your blog is, if you don’t write a good headline, then no one is going to read the rest of your blog post.
It all comes down to your title it if you need some creativity type in a keyword that you are trying to rank for on Google, then you should see some ads.
This will give you a great idea of headlines you can use to attract your customers.
For example, they may have things like how-to articles, double your website traffic in 30 days, or how to how to become a master investor fast.
Try to find ads that are in your industry, so you can get a good understand of what is currently working in your niche.
Think about it, these companies wouldn’t be throwing their money into these ads if they weren’t doing, well would they?
I stick with the basics I use how-to’s, list-based posts, and mistakes … make, those 3 have worked wonders for me and they will never get old.
Make sure to start with the title, also you don’t have to create one variation of it, you can create 2 or 3 variations and ask people what they think, then pick the best one.
However, if you like real numbers and proven data, I suggest you do something called a split test.
A split test is when a robot will split, an equal amount of people coming to your website and test multiple things on your webpage to decide what works the best.
I highly suggest taking inspiration from ads on Google or, doing split tests since…
“Facts don’t care about your feelings”.
-Ben Shapiro
2. Introduction
In your introduction you need to hook people with a bold statement, for example, I hocked you by saying “Do you want to know the hidden formula I use on how I write a perfect blog?”
By hooking people in they’re going to read the rest, and with your introduction, it’s not only about hooking people in but, also about talking about what’s going to be covered in the post.
Give people a quick overview of what you’re going to teach is a great way to hook them in and get people to read more into your blog post.
3. Body
Your body should include subheadings, keep in mind you want your content to be easy to skim.
If people can’t skim through, you’re not going to do well, in your body use subheadings and keep your paragraphs 2 rows for each sentence, for example like this:
⬇️ (This is gibberish by the way) ⬇️
“There’s we have, or in the rectus against giving shuffles the underprizes cowards of the ills wrong a bare bourn, puzzles are sicklied o’er with my country life”.
In addition, when you’re writing your body, you’ll notice I link out to other people, that’s part of my formula it’s not only about linking to your site.
It’s also about linking to other sites, because what happens when you link to other websites and you cite them.
It creates more credibility for you, and it makes you, and your business look more of an expert, and that’s what you want to be perceived as when you’re writing content.
4. Conclusion
Finally, you want to wrap up your post with a conclusion, the conclusion summarizes what your post was about, and you want to end your conclusion with a question.
By ending with a question more people are likely to leave a comment, when they leave a comment, it creates engagement, by increasing engagement you’re much more likely to generate sales.
If people read your blog but they don’t engage with you they’re not likely to become a lead or a buyer for your products and services, so it’s really important that you end with a question.
Also, here’s what a lot of professional bloggers have discovered with conclusions.
What they found through testing was a lot of people read the first line, then quickly scroll to the bottom to check out the conclusion, and then they go back up and read the rest assuming they like the conclusion.
So, with your conclusion make sure you label it as a conclusion, don’t get fancy, keep it simple, just call it a good old conclusion.
And there you have it, that’s my simple, yet powerful formula for writing blog posts, that wasn’t too hard right?
Oh, I almost forgot! One thing I didn’t mention in this whole process of writing blog posts was the link out to other sites part.
Also, since you have read all the way, (or you’ve skipped to the bottom, if so, please go back up and read the rest, so you can understand what I’m talking about).
I know this goes a bit above just writing but very few people do it, when you link out to other people it flatters them.
People love getting backlinks, because when you link out to someone it drives them more traffic, especially when you’re positively linking to them.
Hopefully, you’re not bashing, people in your blog posts, seriously, don’t do this, it’s bad, and it doesn’t help anyone, also it will backfire on you.
When you link out to people send them an email, keep It short and to the point, also say something personal about their life it will build more rapport, and it shows the other person that you genuinely care about them.
A lot of people who get linked out to including me, don’t mind sharing articles, it drives the blog owner more traffic, and it makes the person you link to look great.
And that’s a wrap! If you want to:
✔️Identify and attract a constant stream of your desired clients and customers.
✔️Be able to stand out in this noisy digital age and be a trustworthy figure.
✔️Get rid of the headache of trying to do everything yourself.
✔️Being upset because you think you must need tons of money to grow your business.
✔️Long-term strategies that aren’t tiny hacks that will vanish by tomorrow.
✔️Build your brand faster than ever before.
✔️Safeguard your business from any crazy online, or offline changes.
✔️Letting your fingers relax from all the constant posting on social media you think you need to grow your business and brand.
✔️And many more bonuses that you will love, and 100% need, to make your dreams a reality.
And of course, if you have any questions leave a comment below with your question and I will answer it.
Thank you for reading! I wish you a lovely day, and many more to come.
