Like all other businesses, you need good habits to stay on top of things. Having a blog is a business, and it can be a very lucrative one if you are persistent.
Here you will find 8 powerful habits to do daily for your blog.
#1 Treat your blog like a business.
You should start your blog with a business-oriented mindset. This means creating a brand around your blog. This means brainstorming and planning out long-term goals and strategies, as well as getting super organized.
Make a business focus; what do you want your blog to be perceived as? Selling products, tips, and improvement of businesses, or maybe a review blog.
Seek help in business masterminds groups and from other bloggers in the community. Keep learning and applying what you learned on your blog.
Research, research is one of the most important things you can do to help your blog grow.
Be open to new possibilities. Sometimes things don’t go as plan but you should be open to new directions and opportunities.
#2 Focus On One Specific Topic.
The biggest secret is to stick to a particular topic. You might have started blogging on various topics. But the point is, your posts may not look appealing if their reach is too broad.
It only takes one article to gain popularity, and visitors tend to come back for more articles on that particular niche.
You will only be able to attract more readers when they find your content educational and informative. Share valuable ideas to help others improve someone’s knowledge.
#3 Have a schedule
Create yourself a schedule and stick to it. if you see that you are more productive at 9 am after a coffee then write at that time. Maybe you’re a night owl and all your ideas come at night.
It doesn’t matter when you create but you need to give yourself creative space to make some quality work.
You just need the hours where you are most productive, not an entire day.
When you work too much, and that’s in every business/job, you get overwhelmed and sometimes burnt out. We don’t want that.
#4 Engage with your audience and analyze the data.
Know your target audience like the back of your hand! This way you’ll know what type of content to post, what will make them click on certain pages, and what they’ll enjoy reading.
If your readers make time to comment on your posts you should respond to their messages. It’ll make your audience feel more appreciated and heard which may cause them to come back to your blog or stay a little longer.
They may not all comment, some will share, others will buy or just click and stay awhile on your blog. This is why you should analyze your data.
Analytics tools are a great way to see exactly what your readers appreciate more on your blog.
#5 They’re Passionate About What They Do
I have poured my heart and soul into my blog. I enjoyed every second of creating it and I’m passionate about it. I look forward to working on it. And I also learn while writing it!
You don’t ever want to be miserable and hate what you do. It will show in your work.
Love what you do and you’ll never work a day in your life.
#6 Consistency is KEY!
I’m not telling you to post every day but to have a schedule to post at the same on the same days, so your readers know what to expect.
See it this way, you like a certain tv show to play at the same time every, let’s say, Monday, well it would be very disappointing that suddenly without a notice it plays on Wednesday at a different time.
Same thing for your blog. Your audience likes to read your post and having a schedule is a great way to keep them interested and excited.
They just want to read your content and it’s a great strategy to grow as well.
#7 Don’t forget your social media platforms
Not talking about browsing on Instagram. You should take the time to make real connections with followers and readers.
Join Facebook groups and communities. Answer questions and give out tips, but be sure to follow the rules.
Answer comments on Instagram and Twitter. If you have a youtube channel to connect with your audience, make sure to make them feel appréciated.
Ask them questions and make polls on stories. Make sure you put a call-to-action in your posts, it makes it easier for your audience to engage with you.
Use hashtags to connect with your audience, comment on their profile to get on their radar. They might give a look at your blog and profile.
#8 Take your time
It’s not about quantity, it’s about quality. Take your time to make your post and correct the typos. Your readers deserved the best.
Do your research and be an expert in your niche. Learn, take classes and grow your knowledge.
Take your time to create amazing posts. Write a lot, the more you write the better you’ll get at it.
Create graphics and pictures, take your time to make great content.
Learn marketing tips and tricks and use them. Take the time to share your blog and content.
The more time you work on your blog the more experience you gain.
#9 Be persistent
DON’T GIVE UP! Blogging is not easy but does not stop working on it. When you give up, that’s when you fail.
There is no time frame for success. It’s doesn’t happen overnight, and do not compare yourself to others and their success.
Everyone has their own stories and challenges. Maybe it took 3 posts and your mentor became famous instantly, maybe it took 200 posts and a few months for your neighbor to have a successful blog. Everyone’s path is different.
The key is to keep going even in hard times. Because (let’s be honest here) there will be hard times.
When you feel like giving up just take a break and remember your goals and your WHY.
Why you started, why you wanted to make this business?
These are just a few of the blogging habits you should have.
