By following these blogging tips and tricks for beginners, your business can also grow blog traffic, generate social shares, and acquire more leads!


1. Break up blog content to increase readability.


Large blocks of text are difficult to get through on a small screen. And, a lot of blog readers are on their smartphones killing time.
Try to limit paragraphs to 2-3 sentences each.
Use sentences that are concise, and less than 20 words long.
Oftentimes, you can even leave one sentence on its own if it can carry a thought by itself.

2. Emphasize key points in a blockquote or italics/ bold.


To keep a reader’s attention (aside from imagery), you need to vary the treatment of some words and sentences.

3. Always add images that support your story.

There’s nothing more mundane than a page of screen text.
For SEO purposes:
Name your image files properly–ideally describing exactly what it shows.
For example: blogging-tips-for-beginners-editorial-calendar.jpg.
Include keyword-specific alt tags for all images within a post.
For example: “blogging tips and tricks for beginners – keyword research”.

4. Use images and graphics that you have rights to, or are royalty-free.


If you cannot hire or contract a designer because of cost, it’s still better to source fresh imagery–rather than Google search and lift it from someone else.
Try Canva to create quick and unique graphics on your own.
Or purchase credits at paid stock photo libraries like:
  • iStockPhoto
  • Shutterstock
  • Adobe Stock
You could also use free stock photo resources such as:
  • StockSnap
  • Pixabay
  • Pexels
Always read the rules about photo use, before adding them to your content.
