Blog Posts That Convert Like Crazy

When you write a blog, you want the piece to be something that readers like. But even more, you want the blog post to be something they like enough that they want to share it with others or take the next step. Creating content goals, using the right tools, use strategic CTAs and making content that is relevant are all ways to create successful posts. One of the secrets to writing success is to start with a persona. You need to know who you’re writing to and what they want to see from you. Your readers aren’t permanent or final, and sometimes you’ll need to adapt your content and personas to better reflect your changing readership.

Key Takeaways:

  • Start with defining your goals using SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound) or CLEAR (Collaborative, Limited, Emotional, Appreciable, and Refinable).
  • Readability questions: Is your article easy to scan and read quickly? Are your points easily understood?
  • Benefit questions: Does your article provide value to your readers? Are they given instructions they can take with them and apply with their own work?
