6 Ways To Increase Blog Post Views
Think your blog posts are rubbish? Well, think again; you might not be optimising them and promoting them enough to generate more views, especially if you're just starting out.
Marketing and SEO optimisation go hand in hand for increasing blog post views, but I must stress that before we discuss these techniques, what matters most is high-quality content.?
Before you try any of these 6 techniques, look at your content and ask yourself -
‘Is this high-quality content providing value to my reader?’.
If not, the chances are you need to hire an SEO content writer or edit your posts.
Top Tip: And above all else, avoid AI for spammy content!
Why Does Nobody Want To Read Your Blog Post?
Don't play the victim when it comes to low blog post views. There could be many reasons as to why your post isn’t getting read online. You could be using the wrong keywords, failing to link to reputable sources, using poorly written titles, or writing meta descriptions that don't encourage clicks.?
Showing Up In The Search Results Leads To Results - Just Like Hitting The Gym
If your website is fresh, you'll also be suffering from a low domain authority score, which means Google won't be looking favourably on your website just yet.
But, with most things in life, putting in the hard work consistently will pay off.
Think of it as hitting the gym.
Day 1 is going to be an uphill battle. You'll wonder how long it will take to feel confident, to notice results, to feel that post-gym high.
Showing up, time and again leads to results. Skipping the gym, just like neglecting your blog and website content will lead to frustration and a vicious cycle of failure.
That's the reality and the cold, hard truth.
Cross-Marketing?- Your Copywriting Bestie
Especially when starting, cross-marketing is a good way to build your target audience for your blog and get more views.?
Promoting your blog on social media, whether it be YouTube or Instagram, is highly important so people can know you have a blog.?
Guest posting or posting on platforms like Medium with links back to your blog is also a great way to cross-market yourself.
