There are approximately over 150 Million blogs online and the numbers are rising rapidly with a new blog being launched every half a second. So one may think as a blogger, “How do I stand out as a blogger, how do I get noticed when there are so many bloggers in the blogosphere?” Trust me when I say that these are questions that haunted me when I started blogging. However, there are quite a few ways to imprint your very own unique mark in the minds of your readers and excel as a Pro Blogger.
I will show you how with these easy to follow steps. They will be easy once you have an undying passion for what you blog about.
1. Do Your Research
Before you embark on any journey you need to take the time to study your environment to develop a strategy for effectively operating in it. Many bloggers today start blogging about internet marketing, SEO, making money blogging and yet they don’t have a deep understanding of what they’re blogging about. So their content just seem like general statements without any new perspectives that can help other bloggers achieve success.
Knowing a topic like the back of your hand is the best way to produce content that sticks in your readers’ minds. Your originality will flow like a river.
2. Unique & Beautiful Blog Design
I know that not all of us have the skill or time to design and develop our own blog themes. So thank God we have access to lots of nicely designed free themes as well as professionally built premium themes that can do everything you want and more. However, I’m sure you don’t want your blog to look like 100 other blogs. How will you stand-out as a pro-blogger if you look like everyone else? Or why choose a theme that is poorly designed and confuses your readers? I spent weeks searching for a theme that is right for me and allows for a beautiful design. I then finally settled with the Thesis Theme Framework and customized it.
A beautiful and user friendly design can mean the difference between your success or failure as a blogger. Take the time to hunt down that theme that will do wonders for your readers’ eyes.
3. Deliver Content in a Unique Format
From time to time we will need to take inspiration or information from what we have learned from other bloggers in our field as well as other professionals to create content for our readers. That’s just the way it is, but what’s the point if we are writing the same exact thing in the same exact way as others are writing? Whatever we learn and decide to write about we need to deliver that information from our own unique perspectives. In writing about your industry, express general ideas and developments in your own unique style. Try adding what you think will happen within a couple of years or share the experiences that you may have had with that particular topic and don’t copy unless absolutely necessary for the post.
4. Command Influence – Become an Authority In Your Field
Go the extra mile to seek out information that is new, super useful and hardly ever blogged about and you will definitely grab your readers’ attention. Study your niche, day in, day out and aim to become the “Guru” in your field. You can’t become a guru in a couple of weeks like some internet marketers claim to be. It takes time, dedication and lots of studying. Your traffic will flow when you achieve this status and freely offer your unique knowledge through your posts.
5. Blog About Your Passion
If you can develop a passion for what you blog about then your battle is half won. Even if it takes 3 years for you to hit your aspired mark, your passion will keep you running even at your worst times. Without passion you will quickly become tired of what you’re blogging about and that means, less money, less traffic and a smaller lifetime as a blogger.
If you haven’t found your passion, start taking a deep look within yourself and ask the questions; “Do I see myself doing this for the rest of my life? Would I do this for free? Do I get tired of what I do easily?” These are just a few questions that will help you conduct the self analysis to start blogging about your passion.
6. Dare To Be Original!!
I can’t stress this enough, Dare To Be Original! Be original in the way you speak, write, walk, run, ride, drive, design and how you deliver your content. Maybe some of that was beyond the scope of blogging but originality can quickly turn you into the next Darren Rowse. So, Just Do It!
Following the tips above will definitely get you started on the road to blogging success. These are the qualities I see in all truly successful bloggers and have adapted them in my own blogging journey, which I must say has been a blast so far. So, Just Do It!
