Blogging success is possible when you have a social media strategy that focuses on your blog as the hub or home of all social media marketing.

In a previous posts, I shared reasons you should be blogging and the secrets to blogging profits.  After you’ve made the commitment to blog consistently, you’re in a prime position to leverage blogging as an overall revenue strategy for your business, too.

Here are my Top 10 Blogging Success Tips:

  1. Set aside at least one hour weekly for blogging, specifically. Put it on your calendar and honor your scheduled commitment.
  2. Create a list of ideas, titles and content for blog posts; add to it when you get ideas about the needs, concerns, problems and challenges of your most ideal clients.
  3. Be intentional about capturing the information of your blog/website visitors.
  4. Focus on retaining blog subscribers because it’s easier than always working to attract new subscribers.
  5. Define a process for turning your readers into clients that are eager to buy from you.
  6. Set a monthly goal to convert subscribers to customers; track your results and adjust accordingly.
  7. Read and comment on other blogs. It’s in alignment if you want people to comment on your blog posts.
  8. Be open to ways to innovate your blogging, like linking parties or sharing contests.
  9. Be willing to invest in strategies to monetize your blog.
  10. Stay consistent in your blogging strategy and frequency. Look for ways to “get ahead” of your calendar of committed posts, e.g., guest bloggers, repurposing existing content, varying media (quotes, videos, lead magnets, etc.)

Blogging success means you’re creating massive influence in the marketplace by being heard, seen and known as an international thought leader. Not only are you sharing value, you’re able to convert your readers to clients who buy from you regularly. Now, that’s blogging profitability!
