2 . SENSELESS CONTENT

Although blogs can be somewhat laid back and casual in tone, that doesn’t mean they should contain random stream-of-conscious writing that really has no point. Make your point aligned to the title and to the topic of your blog.

HELPFUL TIP: Treat your blog posts like mini-articles, basing them on a solid outline.

3 . POOR AND BORING TITLE

Even if it’s grammatically correct and contains no misspelled words, your title can still stink if it doesn’t make people want to read it. You can't get them to read your content without that initial click. Make your title catchy and connected to your readers.

HELPFUL TIP: Use enticing titles they simply can’t resist, short and to the point.

4 . NO INTERNAL LINKS

Each blog post gives you multiple opportunities to get readers interested in different areas of your website through internal links. Link to other blog posts you’ve written that relate to the topic. Put some links in your blog so that your reader will have a whole picture of what you are offering to them.

HELPFUL TIP: Link to products relevant to a solution you’re discussing.

5 . LOTS OF EXTERNAL LINKS

One of the main aims of a blog is to drive traffic to your site. If you add a gazillion links to outside sources, you’re pretty much doing the exact opposite. Minimize to a few credible external links. Anything excess are not useful at all so try to minimize using lots of links inside of your blog.

HELPFUL TIP: Avoid non-credible sources that won't do you any good.
