The path you must take to be considered a good blogger involves a lot more
than simply publishing interesting reading material! People who are looking for
blogs to read will only show loyalty to a particular site if it continues to
produce interesting content over time! This of course will be a test of your
genuine interest in the topic you are blogging about and your long term
commitment!
Here are 3 personal attributes all bloggers need to maintain a steady flow
of interesting content and thus earn the loyalty of those who visit their site!
Perseverance
When speaking of investing your time, as the blogging process does indeed
require, you will need plenty of resolve! Although you may have already
published some interesting content your readers consider you only as good as
your last update! You must continue to produce reading material that captures
their interest and this will 'condition' them to return for more of the same!
The results you seek will not always be apparent and this is where your perseverance
will be needed! Simply stay focused on creating something of relevance and
interest so that you can develop the loyalty of your readers!
Consistency
People always like to know what to expect and when they look for blogs to
read they want to know if and when there will be new updates! This is where
maintaining a consistent posting schedule will serve to compel visitors to
return! Of course they must FIRST consider the reading material you offer to be
worthy of their time, so stay the course and continue to publish quality posts!
Another area where you need to display consistency is by keeping your updates
relevant to the theme of your platform! To wander away from the 'original'
theme of your blog will cause current readers to simply just wander away and
NOT return!
Curiosity
Curiosity may have killed the cat but it only strengthens the blog since
your hunger for new information leads to better and more interesting content!
Whenever possible it is always recommended to choose a theme with which you
have a personal interest! In doing so this will keep you motivated even when
you are not seeing many visitors! Additionally the passion you have for your
subject will cause you to have opinions since this passion is personal and you
therefore feel more strongly about what you write!
Earning the 'regard' of being a good blogger is more a test of your time
and effort in producing interesting content for visitors to view! Most people
looking for blogs to read only become loyal to a particular site once it proves
to be a reliable source! Although creating reading material people enjoy
reading is important, blogging is a 'process' which calls for the 3 attributes
reviewed above! Do you possess the drive and commitment needed to build your
site into one of the more interesting blogs to read? Only time and of course
your efforts will determine that for sure!
