let me share
my first blog post experience –


When I
started my first blog, I have written only 250 – 300 words content in a
competitive niche and hoping to get rank within an hour.

I know it
sounds so funny but it was the fact


After
spending some more than a year I come to know that how to write a perfect blog
post that satisfies the reader and if you follow all of these steps which I
mentioned below then I am very sure that you can write an awesome blog post


But the harsh
truth is no one will read your first blog accept you not because you have done any
mistake it is because you don’t know how to market that content to reach the targeted audience and get traffic to your blog

.

When people
write their first blog post they think their content is awesome and every the reader will get satisfied from that content but the truth is your first content
will be crap unless you follow all this step


Let’s started

If you are in
this blog post then you might already start your blog and stuck in writing your
first blog post.

This blog the post is all about how to start your first blog post

In this blog
post, you will learn –

·      
Mistakes
of the new blogger and how to fix it ( beginner )

·      
How
to collect and organize content to write your blog post

·      
How
to write a perfect blog post

·      
How
to reach your blog post to your targeted audience

 

In
short, this gonna be a fully comprehensive guide to publish your first blog
post and along with what all mistakes I did and I don’t want you to do that
mistake.

That
means it is like a win-win situation for your


Mistakes of the new blogger
and how to fix it ( beginner )

·        
Overthinking –

Many
of the bloggers at the beginning face the problem of overthinking. Without
writing even one blog post you tend to be a professional blogger in your mind.


Even
when I started my first blog I think I will become an expert blogger within a month or a year.

But
then I realized that is not possible, blogging is a continuous process.


Rather
overthinking by yourself just practically execute it then can learn something
new and improve yourself by time

·        
Not identifying niche –

The niche might have listened to most of the blogger about identifying niche

But,
Do you know why you should identify your niche?

The reason is simple, Rather being a jack of all be master in one.

There
are plenty of benefits of having a niche –

  • ·        
    Master in one field
  • ·        
    You will build a targeted audience for that niche
  • ·        
    Expertise
  • ·        
    Build a brand
  • ·        
    Easy to identify Brand

·        
And it will go on.

But
these are the main reason why you should stick will one niche.


Example
– If you write one blog post about a dog and another blog post is about
lifestyle.

You
can’t build a loyal and targeted set of audience for your blog posts because
people who have visited your dog blog may not have an interest in reading you’re lifestyle blog and you will end up getting no real targeted audience for any of
your blog posts

·        
Don’t know what to write –

As
a beginner people don’t know what to write and how to write an engaging blog
that provides value. People write what they think about that topic and don’t
care whether people are searching for that topic or not.


You
have to research before starting any blog then only you will get to know which
topic od more relevant to your audience and what they are searching

·        
Inconsistent –

Inconsistency chart of new blogger

Do
you know there are 70 million+ blog post publishing on each day on WordPress.


Do
you think anyone can become a blogger easily in that competitive field?

That’s
where the consistency exists, everyone starts blogging full of energy but after
sometimes they get tired by doing this continuously because blogging is not an
overnight success it that time.


People
will start a blog but after some time their excitement started falling and ultimately
they drop blogging

·        
Underestimate blogging –

When
you start blogging you will think it is easy to start and run a blog by just
taking a highly paid course of blogging.

Everyone
thinks that by taking a blogging course they can run a successful blog.


I
have taken 2 paid blogging courses of but when is started blogging then I realize
the which I have learned in courses is just a basic.

No
matter how many courses you have taken, you will only learn blogging by just
starting an actual blog by yourself. It is full of practicality and no
theoretical knowledge help you a lot

 

How to collect and organize
content to write your blog post

·        
Content research –

Before
writing any of your blog posts do some content research.

hope till now you have ready with your niche, but what to write that more
engage with the reader and people are more searching for that topic.

do content research d for my niche?

count –

you have to write?

Search your
topic on google and analysis the top 5 – 6 ranking blog.

You can use
the “Wordcounter” tool

Just copy that
ranking content and paste it on these tools then you can see the exact word
count.

·        
Detailed content –

You have read
and analyzed the top 5 – 6 ranking blog posts. As you read 5 – 6 blog post you
will get a good amount of knowledge about that topic unless it is a too
technical niche


If read all
that blog post you can find out what is missing in each of the blogs.

Example –

1st
ranking blog covers point A and B

2nd
ranking blog covers point A and C

Then you can
write a comprehensive blog post on point A, B, and C

your blog post will be more detailed and informative than another blog post.
Hence your chance of getting rank will be increased

this blog post.

it so that you will have clear ideas that how much words count you have to
write on each point

 

 

How
to write a perfect blog post

·        
Title and Meta description–

Do not start Your blog post unless you have a perfect
title for it.

The title of your blog is very important because it
decides whether people will visit your blog or not.


You should have a catchy title which will attract the
people to click your blog post

Add your main targeted keywords in your blog title and
meta description

Title and Meta Description

·        
Introduction –

Whenever you start a blog your first paragraph should be
an introductory paragraph where the reader will get an overview of what is
inside the blog.


If you are already knowledgable in the topic then you can
Share your experience and knowledge in a particular topic because it builds a
trust amongst reader the read more


But, what if you are a beginner and Don’t have experience
and much knowledge in that field?

Then you can start an introduction paragraph on that
topic by doing some research. Or comprehensively explaining what will be in the
blog post.

·        
Body of your blog –

The body of the blog included all those main content of
your topic which will make your content king. Blogging is all about writing
content, If you have an interest in writing and spread your knowledge to the
worlds then blogging is for you or if you want the start blog and don’t have
an interest in writing but can build interest in the future then also you can
start


Most of the people of that second category even when I
started blogging I have zero interest in writing content but after doing this
continuously I started having an interest in writing content
