The are a number of important factors that come into play when blogging. The following list provides a few things to keep in mind when posting articles to your blog.

1. Start your article off with an interesting title such as 30 better, 5 Cool tricks, etc… Doing this will help increase CTR (click through rate) and at the same time help maintain the Reader’s interest.
2. Add informative links within the posts that may help the reader understand the article better.  Many tend to post links to the Wikipedia for definitions.
3. Do you want to be seen as a regular blogger or the topic expert.  Be the topic expert when posting each Article. Provide ideas that are new and fresh to your readers; that are not provided elsewhere. (An incentive to come back.)
4. Share real experiences.  People love to learn from experiences, not just prediction.
5. Add value by including surveys, photos, statistical data.  A little reseach never hurts anybody.  The more reseach you put into an article, the more authority it will gain.  Are you willing to put in more time than your competitor would?
6. It’s important to take the time and respond to any comments or emails sent to you from your readers. Your readers questions and comments should be your #1 priority.  They are the reason why you blog.  Your quick response will also encourage your readers to revisit and subscribe to your RSS Feed.  Comments in a blog may make up half of the article in some cases.
7. Keep an eye on grammar.  Worpress and other blog platforms will highlight errors for you.  Too many errors can make you look not so cool.  Math has always been my strong point, therefore writing has never been.  Because of this, I usually read my articles several times before posting.
8. If you’re new to blogging, DON’T GIVE UP!  So many people start blogs only to quit a month later. A blog needs time to grow and blossom.  Those who have the most success post compelling articles daily and never quit.  This is why it’s important to blog about something that will interest you for the long haul.
