Before you sit down to write your blog, think about what you like and dislike in other people's blogs. What works for you and what doesn't? This will provide a guide for you, transforming your blog from a ramble that simply satisfies your writing urge, into an engaging useful piece for your reader.
The following is a good checklist for your blog:
-Does your blog contain information of value to most of your desired audience? You want to impart knowledge you have learned through your unique experiences.
-Does your blog promote thought so that your audience will continue to think about it after they have finished reading it? Make your blog memorable!
-Is your blog succinct? The longer the blog the more likely your reader will switch off.
-Does the layout of your blog make it easy to read? Subheadings and point form can be very effective in organising your ideas.
-Have you chosen appropriate language? Don't use words that are overly complicated or obscure, it can be a turn off to your reader and hinder your intended message from being understood.
-Most importantly, think before you write. Have a plan and stick to it. When your thoughts are organised your writing will be too.
Happy blogging!
