10 things to help you become a successful blogger in any niche

When you're starting out or if you're a veteran blogger, you will always need to follow the next ten things I'm about to talk about if you want to be successful.  They may seem pretty obvious to you, but I know this will help at least one person out there and that's why I'm writing it

Being a successful blogger is more than writing content and making a million dollars from it.  You need to not only have the skills to bring people in and read your content but the skills to keep them coming back through promotions and advertisements. 

Let's get to it.


Always Create Content
This is a pretty obvious one since a blogger is known to create content.  There's no real time frame for how much material you need to post and when to post it, so try to write as much as you can without getting burnt out and provide your readers with something every day if you can. 

You don't have to write novels of content each day so try to focus on quality rather than quantity.  Something longer, but written well, will always resonate better within your community than something that was slapped together.

Be An Expert
You need to know what you're writing about because your readers likely do.  If you're trying to break into a niche you don't know anything about, and you don't plan on researching anything, you will likely get called out for the garbage content you're producing.

Just do some research if you're unfamiliar with the niche and stop the negative comments before they start lol.

Be Entertaining To Read
If your content is bland, no one will want to read more than a paragraph, and that means you won't generate any revenue unless someone happens to click on an Adsense link.  What you need to do is write content that comes to life and keeps people on the page.  Funnel them to more articles you've written and reduce your bounce rate at the same time.  The longer they're on your website/blog, the more likely they'll check out your services, and that means more money in your pocket when they sign up for something you're selling

Use Testimonials
Whenever I'm trying to sell something on a blog or website, I will always use previous testimonials.  I will show the potential buyers what previous buyers have already said, and they will be more at ease. You can do this by screenshotting nice comments on a piece of content you wrote, quoting someone that sent you an email, or finding something on facebook that was kind and about you.

If you use testimonials from previous buyers, you will always see an increase in sales and conversions.

Always Promote Your Content
A lot of bloggers complain about how they did the best SEO possible on their post, and they're not getting any traffic.  They tend to not advertise the content at all and hope it ranks #1 for a competitive keyword. 

What they forget about is SEO takes a very long time to work, and they should be using Facebook or even Adwords to promote their best content.  Yes, this will cost money, but it's worth it in the end if you're trying to build up your readers for profits later on.

Don't Be Afraid Of Videos
I'm not a huge fan of videos because I don't find myself as attractive as 95% of the people online, so I tend to avoid them.  But you're pretty!  Use videos and see how well you do with them

A video presentation of the content on your blog will help increase your views simply because most people don't want to read a page of text and would rather listen to you read it out loud.  Yes, it's like in the 1st grade when the teacher would read to us lol.

By producing some videos, you will be able to target those visitors who don't want to read but would rather listen to you explain things within the article.  You can spread a wider net this way

Use High Quality and Unique Pictures
No one wants to see old stock photos on your blog, and that means you need to use unique and high quality ones.  I tend to gravitate towards unslplash.com because they have a huge assortment of free stock photos that are of high quality.  They're not so much unique, but their inventory is so vast that it's tough to find the picture used a second time on a competitor website unless you're searching for it.

Be A Fresh Source Of Content
You need to stay on top of what is happening within your industry if you want people to keep coming back for more content.  Publish news that is happening within your niche when it's happening, publish tutorials for people to read/watch, and publish anything relevant at the time so people know they can come to you because you know what's going on right now.

Your Content Must Have Free Value
A lot of the times you'll notice bloggers pushing products within their content, and they're likely getting sales from it.  Instead, write up some tutorials of how to do something and don't put any affiliate links in it.  Provide something of value to the reader, and they will continually come back for more.  Your readers might even pay you to do their content, purchase through your sidebar affiliate links, and maybe even give you a donation for the quality guides and tutorials you've been writing for everyone


In the end,
It's not an easy road to go down if you want to become wealthy as a blogger, but it's definitely possible, so why not try everything I've written above and let me know how it goes   I'm still on my journey to hit the million-dollar mark, but maybe you can do it quicker than I can
