#4: MAKE YOUR CONTENT DIGESTIBLE
Kristina Cisnero@K_Cisnero
Think of search engine robots as a five-year-oldlearning to read for the first time. When writingcontent that is search-engine-optimized, the contentis important, but so is the layout of the content.
Just like a five-year-old, pictures really grab thesearch engine’s attention; adding images to yourcontent will help your content be easily digestible,but you can make it even easier for the searchengines to digest your content by using descriptiveAlternate tags.

#6: USE A CASUAL, FRIENDLY AND PERSONAL TONE
Perrin Carrell
@NichePursuits
In my experience, it absolutely does not matter whatyou’re talking about. It does not matter what you’reselling. It does not matter how much jargon youraudience uses.
Someone talking to you like a friend is always goingto be more engaging. I’d rather read a blog aboutplumbing supplies written by a funny plumber whocomes across as genuine, friendly and trustworthythan a plumbing supplies blog written by a faceless,generic Fiverr writer. Wouldn’t you?

A style guide is a document (PDF/binder/digital file)you create to keep you consistent on important blogelements such as fonts, colors, and image styles, aswell as brand elements such as tone, documentstyles, and more.

My experience is that a blog can really comealive when you not only provide readers withinformation, but also give them inspirationand a place to interact with one another.

#9: CREATE A "START HERE" PAGE
Chloe West@ChloeWest28
On this page are categories, images, links toposts, and/or brief descriptions of popularposts and how they can help out a new reader.
These pages give new readers to your blog anidea of what they can expect from you and are agreat way to get readers to browse through andread multiple posts in one sitting, leading tonew subscribers or followers–the ultimate goal,right?

#10: BUILD A STRONG COMMUNITY
Neil Patel@neilpatel
A great blog begins with the content you create, butto be successful a blog also needs a strongcommunity or audience. The members of yourcommunity will follow your blog by giving youpermission to send them updates.
This is a powerful step in marketing. With traditionaladvertising, you’re interrupting people and while thiscan be effective it’s much easier to market to peoplethat opt-in to receive information from you.
