Keywords, Keywords, Keywords…Are you A Successful Blogger?



 Recently I was given this assignment to write blogs and at first I thought, “how am I going to do that?”  I’m not a writer.  I don’t know the first thing about blogs.  So, then I did what I always do when given an assignment; I turned to the internet and did some research.  I discovered that evidently I am not the only person facing this dilemma; there are literally hundreds of sites with advice on how to write your blog.  I was given the advice to write about my own experiences and I thought, “now who would want to read that?” 

Many sites I have read recommend keeping your blog short (fewer than 250 words) and to make it amusing to keep your audience engaged.  Evidently, we have all developed ADD.  You would think one was writing a script for a movie in reading some of this advice. It’s overwhelming!!  But, it seems like if you just try to clear your head and write what you know (in our case a few things about Marketing) or what you’re passionate about (e.g., your dog, your model train collection, or your kids), then before you know it you’re a successful blogger.

We are always here to help you with any Marketing needs you may have for your business or non-profit.
