Common Mistakes Made by Bloggers


Mistakes = Less Traffic

Are you a blogger? . Do you want to increase the traffic for your blog? .. Here you are some useful tips for the most common mistake that u should avoid to increase the traffic and the rank of your blog.

I've searched a lot online how to increase the traffic for my blog and I found out many useful things ,, but suddenly ,,, I stopped searching for it and I changed my mind to search for the mistakes that most of bloggers do to avoid it .. so Here we go:

1- Image Caption:

it sounds strange. But its really a big mistake that we always do that we don't care about our post image captions. When a reader or a visitor comes to read your post you need to try to grab their attention to encourage them to read and to stay in your blog because there are studies have shown that up to twice as many people read captions as body copy. So you have to write interesting caption under your post images.

2- Post title :

after a lot of searching online and reading about SEO. I found out that the short interesting post title that contains keywords It helps the search engine to crawl and to put your post at the top of the search engine result. This trick needs alittle modification in your blog code because you will find out that your blog title always comes before the post title in the search result. So you need to reverse the code and I explained it how to do this for blogger members HERE

3- Blog Template :

You should do some effort to make your blog look nice and fit to its topic. So you need to choose the right template because actually on the Internet your eyes works a lot :D and you need your readers feel good about how nice and professional is your blog. so at least try to design a nice header for your blog.

4- Patience :

one of the biggest mistake that bloggers do is to keep monitoring traffic more than taking care of the topics and the content. You should take care of your posts and to post useful original contents to encourage your readers to visit you over and over. Be sure that as long as you post useful interesting information you will get traffic sooner or later but it needs time . So don't waste time waiting and let's go to work.


5- Post Regularly:

you need to keep your blog link in your readers bookmark list. They will not keep in touch with a blog hardly updated from time to time. Your reader should be waiting always to see updates and new posts so keep regular posting.

6- Useful Contents :

Main mistake in your blog that your posts are not useful for your visitors or your readers. They need quality contents to appreciate your post and your blog and this will makes them visit again and again and this means traffic :)
