We Know The Rudiments Of Success

How Do You Know If Your Blog is Making A difference?

Make a difference


Blogging has been in existence and today, you hardly find a person in a family of let say 4 siblings who doesn’t blog. This in essence showed the extent at which blogging has reached. A lot of people has made cool money with blogging, why some were frustrated out of blogging and some still in the rhythm of it.

 Today, I sat with my system and this wonderful post title dropped in my mind. I believe tuning your post title toward keywords is very important, but there should be one or twice in time when you write out of inspiration….lol. Am not talking about spiritual aspect here, but I what I mean is that there are some post title you get as a result of your thought. 


Moreover, I think from my experience in blogging it’s good most time to write outside keywords. Today many bloggers don’t know what blogging is. Some believe blogging is about: 
1 Making money
 2 Reputations
 Fine, both the stated points are attached to blogging but they are not what make blogging what it is. To my own understanding, blogging is actually meant for writers because it’s a platform where you show- case your writing skills with great contents.

 And this is where I’ll stress more about my topic “How do you know if your blog is making a difference”. Till today, some people still believe blogging is all about packing articles on a blog and getting traffic. 

 Some few weeks ago, I was researching on some matters when I stumbled on a material that I guy wrote on his blog. It was a question he asked his readers and he appealed with them to reply him through the comment box. The question was “is my blog making difference”. This guy really wants to know how he has been affecting people’s life, blog and their progress. 

I believe this is how every bloggers should be thinking, not thinking only about our pockets or how to make money. Google wrote a sentence one that, that before you write a post… think about your readers and visitors. 

Before we start, if you have not subscribe to our blog then you are missing a lot. But you can always subscribe here now before we start today’s discussion.

Therefore today, I will be discussing on the topic “How do you know if your blog is making a difference”. Just sit tight and let’s roll together. 

People’s Comments 

This is a very important point of this post, because even within our mind as a blogger we know if our post touches our reader from their comments. I will say this is in two versions, because people will never comment on your post if it doesn’t make a difference to them. Several times we have experience this kind of situation when you post and just like 3 persons comment on it, and probably on another post we have like 70 or there about comments on it.

 It shouldn’t be a surprise because I know one new blogger who complained of having 30 posts without a comment. We need to give our best when writing our post. We should research in details before publishing our post, and writing posts that are interactive is also an added advantage. Try to teach from your post, not just passing information across.

How Much Subscribers do you have?

A lot of factors contribute to this point, because for someone to have 20,000 subscribers is not a joke, and for those who is still having 10… you can get there. Having a huge number of subscribers show how difference your blog has make in your readers life. Either they came to your blog and they were able to get solutions, love your first approach, your blog design, and of all.. the high quality content you produce on the blog may be the reason why they subscribed. 

Though some subscribed because of free giveaways. That is the more reason why bloggers should imbibed the idea of giveaways. To be candid, the number of your subscribers is the product of how much difference your blog has made. 

Busy Contact us page/domain emails 

I believe lindaikeji, problogger and some renowned bloggers can testify, and are very good example of this point. Most pro bloggers who has in their night burned several sticks of candle and those who know the rudiments of success in blogging deals with contact us page more than comment box. Just ask me why? 

The reason been that big companies uses the contact us page to get to them for advertisement or any sort of business transaction, therefore they get many contacts from big companies. I think the same case is applicable to having a domain email, because you keep getting offers.

 My advice for those coming behind is that you can always get there, all you need is patience and know the behind the scene of blogging as I use to call it. If you don’t know that we have behind the scenes to blogging, then as me through the comment box and I’ll tell you.

Followers on social Medias:

Let me tell you this secret, people don’t follow you because of your fine face… they only follow you because of your fine and high quality service your render, probably through your contents or your activities from your blog. How people respond to you on social as a blogger is a very good method to measure how much difference your blog has made.

 Liveofofo and nairaland are very good example of this, because you find them everywhere on social networking. Therefore try and be active, post quality contents and share it on social Medias like Facebook , twitter and the rest. 

I believe with these structured points, you will agree with me that the difference your blog is making or has made is a product of what I’ve just discussed. Please if you have any addition and observation, the comment box is very free for you to use.

The Basics Of SEO You Must Learn

Basic-SEO-to-learn


A lot of techniques and rules have  have been talked about by the so called pro bloggers, but they often left out some basic  of SEO which most of the time are left unturned. I noticed I have been writing a lot of articles on SEO this past weeks, may be because I promise myself that I want to crack the puzzles of search engine optimization to some extent.

I Recommend you read:How to optimize your images for Search Engine

 Though it’s a wide range for someone to cover in a decade, you just need to talk about them. Mere looking at internet marketing these days, you’ll see that there are some important practices which we need to take cognizance of, and if you keep ignoring them, it’s dangerous, because it has been founded ever since the evolution of blogging or let say internet marketing itself.

Guess it’s nothing new again because we all know that the success of our blog/ our online businesses depend strongly on these importance evolutionary practices of SEO and also the new ones, because without correcting and mastering these rules, your blog keeps struggling.



 Writing with Passion

I told someone earlier this week that I always write my articles with passion. From what I learnt from Google, your articles, and blogs are not for you, but for you readers. So endeavor to give them the best that is expected of you. An interactive blog keeps your follower intact.

I Recommend you read:How do you know if your blog is Making A Difference?

 There are some blogs out there that only passes message, no form of interaction between the write and the reader. It’s always mandatory that when you write, always make your readers feel your presence, as if you are with them lecturing. While you write your article, I want you to have some few things in mind:


 1. Remember keywords and search engine optimization in mind, which we all know they are good in ranking of our web pages.

2. Your article should be of high quality, like I wrote earlier; it should be readable and interactive for your audience to appreciate them.

 3. Remember it’s not only traffic you are after for writing the article, but a faithful and stable reader, because you might have a enough traffic and still have a low income. Therefore assume that you are writing for a large number of people, which is very true. By so doing and having that in mind, you’ll make you article informative.

  The Effect of Duplicating Your Content

Are you surprise that I brought up this topic? Guess you need to be because so bloggers actually do that. Duplicating your articles on your blog to make your post number many is a null on the side of search engine. Plagiarism and copy right infringement is what Google termed the act to be, and it has a great penalty the blog is going to pay.

Though it happens at time, when you write your article in your HTML post space and probably the network wasn’t too good, most times it would have posted and you’ll think it didn’t post and re- post it. It happened to me earlier this week, when I posted an article and the stuff didn’t post, and I re clicked the post button not knowing it has already been posted.

 It was when I visited my main site check on my posts that I knew it was a double post I did. Always check your web pages for duplicate posts, nobody is perfect. Duplicating content lowers the rank of your blog, and I guess that’s too bad. That is why you should always be careful when you post articles.

  Referral Traffic

I must tell you that referral traffic is very bad. Anything I shared with you here, was as a result of my experience. There was a time I used a referral site to get traffic on my blog back in 2011 so well they gave me traffic, but the aftermath effect was so grievous that I as blaming myself for such an act. 

A lot of bloggers have make the same kind of mistakes, that is why google’s panda and penguin updates have dealt with so many blogs today.

It was said that getting traffic from those site could get your blog shutdown. So while the biggest search can lift your blog, it can also be the downfall. You just have to be care, that is why most times we need our traffic from different sources like forums, social media etc.
