Headlines are what your readers tend to read first. They act like bait. If your bait is good, they will "bite" into the blog post too. However, if your headline is dull, repetitive, commonplace, predictable, or just not intriguing at all, your readers may decide to skip the entire thing.

 

Make sure that you have SEO friendly themes, plug-ins and templates. This will allow your blog to load very quickly. The faster something loads, the more people are going to be willing to look at it. If a page takes to long to load, more than likely a visitor will just close the page.

 

Do not make too much use of keywords, ads, images or plug-ins on your blog. Such practices will have your blog flagged by search engines, which hurts your ranking and undoes your hard work. Keep your writing natural, and let it flow in a smooth style.

 

Send an invitation to successful bloggers and ask them to write guest posts on your blog. This will increase the amount of quality content on your blog. It is also a great way to get a boost in traffic numbers. This tactic can be done by using guest bloggers, and will result in a better blog.

 

Make use of pictures in your posts. There is a lot of truth to the old adage that one picture is more valuable then a thousand words. The inclusion of images in your blog can enhance your blog by breaking up text content. Pictures often communicate message more easily then just words. You want to make sure that you include as many images as you can.

 

A site with no new content will also gain no new readers. As a very general rule of thumb, a daily post is the minimum for a good blog. A smart step to prepare for an aggressive posting schedule like this is building up a backlog of two weeks' worth of posts before you start blogging. Then you can use one from this backlog of posts for the days you can't seem to come up with anything to say. That way, you will have sufficient material to use when you have not been as productive as you would like.

 

Have your blog feel friendly and warm to visitors. Reply to comments that people leave, and this means more than just thanking them, try to have real conversations. If you can develop a relationship with your readers, they will tend to be more loyal to you, and keep coming back.
