1. Inspire – People like to be inspired and touched on an emotional level. Those who are able to overcome difficulties and encourage others to do the same are the bloggers that we will return to again and again.
2. Use Humor – It continues to be one of the main traits that will attract women and it works for bloggers too. Sometimes it’s links that go for the funny bone that are also popular. Keep seeing the funny side of life and the whole world will laugh with you.
3. Use lists. People tend to scan on the web. Lists enable people to decide if they want to read more. Its even better if you number your list it establishes priorities
4. Tell a story. My kids love me reading them a story. We never really grow out of this. However they need to be relatively brief when compared to traditional writing. Remember that a lot of people are scanning first so formatting is important.
5. Write a how to.
Sometimes I break all these rules simply because I can or I feel like it. Don’t worry if you aren’t always funny or always have an inspiring story to tell. Your story is important and your blog will be the unfolding of that story. Most important is to keep blogging. We need to hear your story.
