Drawing traffic to your travel site should be the number one goal of a travel business owner.
Featuring a travel blog on the best destinations, holidays and packages can be helpful in steering traffic to your site.
People enjoy reading interesting articles. People don’t like to receive a pitch for a hard sale. Overly promotional posts can steer potential customers away. However, by presenting information in an exciting way that allows people to start visualising their next holiday, they are not only willing to begin planning their trip, they will actively seek out travel services to do so. A blog that steers traffic to a travel agency’s site will increase income.
Create a blog about the best destinations. Post pictures of these chosen places to give a present visual. Pictures excite people and encourage them to take a vacation. Write about the exciting things to do there. Mention the fun activities that can be done while on the beach and extend the activities to wide array of people according to their likes. Some people like thrills while others like to sit and relax. It’s worth it to mention various activities that will appeal to every age group.
Information can be presented in a few ways in a travel blog; however, for your purposes, it may be worthwhile to feature destinations based upon the most popular times they’re visited in the year. Make sure you post a few months ahead of time to allow people the opportunity to get ready for these trips. People tend to start planning for their next vacation a few months ahead of time. For serious planners, a year or two may be necessary to plan the best trip. Blog entries can also be grouped according to general location as well. For example, get people interested in several places to visit in South America.
In the same blog entries that mention different destinations, lay out an itinerary. The more detailed a blog is regarding the activities during a trip, the better. Fully explore all of the ins and outs of any destination so that potential customers begin to think about the activities they could get involved in. The key is to get potential customers to visualise themselves in any given destination.
Mention popular tourist hot spots, places to eat, places to shop, ease of travel and places to sleep. Talk about the tasty food that is sold at the corner restaurant. Give tips on where to eat the best lobster dinner. List places of transportation that helps vacationers to get around. Lay out a map to give people an idea of where everything is located. As people begin thinking about their trip, they are more likely to want to plan out their own activities and will look into additional activities.
The best thing about blogs is that they will forever to continue to draw traffic to a site and can create substantial residual income if done correctly.
Today, I want to show you how to create a product that rocks without really trying.
When you think about it, every product is designed to solve one particular problem, and there are three key parts in building a signature system for you.
Problem
So the first thing you want to do when you create a course is to get really clear about the problem you’re here to solve. Specifically, what are the frustrations and fears your audience is experiencing right now ? You want to know them in real detail.
Promise
We’re going to solve a problem and create a promise. If the problem is their frustrations and fears, the promise is their wants (short term) and aspirations (long term). We have a problem and a promise. So what do we need next ?
Process
Finally, we need a process — the simple steps between the problem and the promise. For example, let’s say we’re making a dating course for Asian nerds.
The problem: the guy’s horny, frustrated, single, embarrassed, awkward, lives with his mom, and doesn’t know what to say.
The promise: he’s going to be a stud with a harem and full of lovely ladies.
The process would be something like:
Step 1 — Get your mindset right, figure out what you want.
Step 2 — Figure out who your ideal girl is.
Step 3 — Look and smell good. Don’t be stinky anymore because that’s a turn-off.
Steps 4-8 —Learn where to look for these women, learn what to say when you meet them, take the conversation further, get the phone number, follow up, and on and on.
That’s an example of using a signature system to go from problem to promise with a process.
Here’s a big idea: stop selling conversations and logistics, and start selling promises to problems with a specific process. You can walk people through the simple system from where they are and where you want to take them, step by step by step.
It increases their results, increases your trustworthiness, and increases the certainty people have to hire you.
If you think about the product you deliver, what’s the core problem that you want to solve ?
If you recently started an online business, there are a whole bunch of free tools and services you can use to start quickly.
One service that everyone has access to is Google.
Google has grown to more than a search engine to plug in your query and get an answer to your question.
There are free Google tools you can use as a new business to grow your online business traffic.
Why would you want to increase traffic? To help you make money ! It is the heartbeat of your business and traffic keeps your business alive !
Let’s go through my top Google tools to grow traffic !
1. Google Trends
Are you having a tough time trying to figure out what to post about? Ideas sometimes runs dry and then weeks go by and your page isn’t updated! Well, Google Trends can help you figure out the right post topic that will ensure a flood of traffic.
How I use Google Trends:
I go to Google Trends to see if this is a rising trend or a dying trend
I look at the past 3 years to see if there is a general upwards trend
This can help me decide whether to make my entire post about a topic or include that as a sub topic in a post.
For this example, I would dedicate an entire post on this topic.
Google trends will also show you related topics and search queries to help you figure out more topics or ideas for a post.
2. Google Search Console
Google Search Console gives you a wealth of information for your traffic. When you set up GSC you can track your businesses traffic, find the keywords you are currently ranking for and find the keywords you should use to optimise your content.
Understanding SEO is a big part of your success. And an easy introduction to SEO is with GSC. After you’ve been working online for awhile you can check what keywords you should start using in your posts to help you rank higher in the search results.
Here’s how to do this:
Once you’re in GSC, click on performance.
From here click on the +NEW and add a filter for your top popular post:
Add the URL of your popular post. Next, click on the Average CTR and the Average Position:
Scroll down to Queries and sort by Impressions:
From this list, find the keywords with high impressions but low clicks. Those are the keywords you can shoot for and add to older posts or new posts.
You can add these long-tail keywords to your title or subheadings aswell !
3. YouTube
Everyone loves this Google tool ! YouTube is a great social media platform to help you grow your brand and make you more personal. While some entrepreneurs make their whole marketing strategy on videos, you can use YouTube to supplement your brand’s growth.
I suggest to use YouTube to upload any Facebook Lives and attract a new user that may only enjoy videos.
Another reason why you should have a YouTube channel is to do free webinars !
Go to your channel and click on Live:
From there you can create your webinar and schedule it.
YouTube will give you a link that you can share with your email list. The link is the same before, during and after the webinar ! Super simple to help you grow your brand and traffic.
4. Google Incognito
Google Incognito is a way to browse the internet anonymously (as long as you don’t go logging into your Gmail account or other Google accounts).
Many entrepreneurs use Google Incognito not to secretly browse the internet, but to see if their posts are ranking in the search engine results pages. If you don’t know, searching in your own personal browser to see if you are ranking for a keyword isn’t a true representation.
Google favors you and your page and will show your page on a results page that may not be real.
To bypass this, you can use Google Incognito. In Chrome, click on File > New Incognito Window.
How can this help boost blog traffic ?
When you know where your post is sitting in the SERPS you can optimise that post to rank higher using other free Google tools like Google Search Console.
5. Google Slides
Google Slides is a free version that is similar to Microsoft Powerpoint. You can make slide presentations, but you can also use this Google tool to make PDF freebies to grow your email list or PDF guides you can sell to make money !
But, how can creating freebies help with traffic ?
Well, if you create a freebie to grow your email list, you can create a landing page for that freebie.
And when you create a landing page, you can create multiple posts to attract new readers !
6. Google Docs
Google Docs is another free Google tool you can use to make PDF guides too ! Before I started using Google Slides, I was creating all my freebies using Google Docs.
I would create the cover sheet in Canva and then add it to my guide.
I would save it as a PDF and upload that to my media library.
Here are the steps :
Open Google Docs and go to Insert > page break.
Go to Insert > Header & page number > header
Click on different first page and drag your cover image to the header position.
To make the cover image show on the first page, click on the image and then at the bottom, click on wrap text and change the margin to 0.
From here, you can stretch your cover image to fit the page. On the next page you can create a little boarder with your brand color to make your PDF guide more cohesive.
When you are done, you can save this as a PDF and then upload to your media library.
7. Google
Google is a search engine so you can use this for many things to help grow your business traffic :
Find niche topics
Find post topics
Find out what your competitors are doing
Keywords to start using
See where your posts are ranking
Find out questions people are asking about your topic
Thanks for reading !
Investing in your business is important for success, but if you can bootstrap some things, then I say do it ! Saving money is important because not all businesses make money right away.
With these Google tools, you can get started optimising your posts and narrowing down your niche to attract the right audience and increase traffic !
Every piece of marketing content should do three things.
First, it needs to get the audience’s attention.
Second, it needs to keep the audience engaged all the way through to the end.
But if that’s all you do, it’s no different from any other type of content. The key difference between content and marketing content is that marketing content is designed with the very specific purpose of getting an audience to take action.
All content is meant to be consumed, but marketing content is meant to convert.
Attention and engagement aren’t enough. You don’t just want people to consume your marketing content and move on to whatever’s next on their list.
The third thing your marketing content needs to do is trigger an action.
If you want to turn your content into clients, here are three quick tactics to follow.
1. Place Your Product
Product placement isn’t a new or complicated concept, so I won’t waste your time by raving on and on about it here. But, too few coaches think of using product placement in their own marketing content.
There’s a simple way to place your own products in your content that doesn’t come off as too sales-y.
For example :
Or, “Hey everyone! I was talking to one our intele travel members on a live call the other day when they brought up a really interesting point about…”
It’s that simple.
When you mention your products and programs directly in your content, it makes people aware of what you offer. This plants a seed of desire toward what you have.
2. Offer a Content Upgrade
At the end of a piece of marketing content, offer another piece of content, an “upgraded” piece.
This new piece should be related, but deeper.
Offer a piece of relevant, related, or deeper content that people would happily give you an email address for.
3. Give a Straight-Line Call-to-Action
The advertising giant Leo Burnett once said, “Advertising says to people, here’s what I’ve got, here’s what it’ll do for you, and here’s how to get it.”
Sometimes we should take this advice at face-value and at the end of a piece of content, say, “I’ve got this cool thing that will help you like this… If you want it, go here…”
If you record your own podcast, take this approach at the end of each podcast. At the end of each episode, use a quick call-to-action for something new, upcoming, or ongoing that you think listeners would be interested in.
Say something like this :
“Hey, thanks so much for hanging out with me today. I had a great time, hope you did too. Listen, if you want to convert more of the people you talk to into paying clients without having to be pushy, sales-y, manipulative or weird, then I’ve got something that might be helpful for you.
I’ve created a short, six-page PDF called…..It shows you how to do a 7-minute phone call that took my conversion rate from 50% to over 90%. It qualifies buyers better and builds trust fast. If you’d like a copy, you can go to…”
Using Leo Burnett’s formula, here’s what I’ve just said:
What I’ve got — Six-page PDF called….
What it’ll do for you — Make sales without being weird
How to get it — Go to this URL
Draw a simple, straight line for your audience to follow. Tell them what you’ve got, what it’ll do for them, and how to get it.
Remember, triggering action is the key to your marketing content doing its job. After you’ve arrested their attention and engineered engagement, you can place your product throughout the content to increase desire, offer a content upgrade that builds your list, and give a straight-line call-to-action that builds your client base.
As an online business owner, we always have to be online and growing our tribe of followers, right ?
That’s not always going to happen. We have a house to take care and if you end up taking too much on your plate – you’re going to run out of energy.
But, this is the worst time to run out of energy or creativeness. You’re growing a new business, trying to grow your list and eventually wanting to create a product or service.
So, what do you do when you haven’t blogged in two weeks and you have a growing list of subscribers wanting to hear from you ?
You can’t just send them your latest blog post when you don’t have one !
Your Subscribers Want to Hear From You !
I know, this might seem like totally not true when every time you send an email you get like five or more unsubscribes. And if you have a large list, it’s more like 10 or more every time.
But, that doesn’t matter !
Because the people who unsubscribe aren’t your target audience. They just subscribed for your freebie and nothing more. Or, they subscribed but the posts just aren’t jiving with them. This could be a sign that you need to niche down.
No, you don’t want them, so it’s a good thing when people unsubscribe from your email list.
What you want are fans on your list. They want to hear from you. They want to know what’s going on behind the scenes and they want to see what’s happening with your online business or blog.
Those are the subscribers you want.
And if you don’t email them consistently – it can be several times a week or once a month, as long as it’s consistent – your subscribers might forget about you and find a new blogger to follow.
So, how can you keep your fans excited about you every week ? Here are 6 emails you can send to your subscribers even if you haven’t updated your blog in a month.
1. Create a Welcome Series
The advantage to having a welcome series is that it can be automated and sent to all new subscribers.
This can act as a way to filter out subscribers that aren’t your target audience. The set up is like this:
They opt-in to your list
They receive your freebie (Email 1)
The next day (or whatever day you want to space your emails apart) they receive your first welcome series email (Email 2)
The next two emails are spaced 1 day apart (Emails 3 and 4)
The final welcome series email is sent a week later (Email 5)
Your new subscribers join your list and get notified of new posts and news
In your welcome series please make sure that they don’t get more than one email in a day.
The great thing to having a welcome series besides the fact that it can “screen” your subscribers, is that it gives you time to work on your blog and business while your new subscribers are reading popular posts and learning more about your business and your blog.
But what about the subscribers that have finished your welcome series ? What kinds of emails should you send them ?
2. Send a Tools Email
One thing you can do is send an email that describes all the tools you use for your business. Depending on which email service provider you use, you can even use affiliate links in your email.
i suggest to subscribe to https://www.wonderlass.com/ email list to recieve a tools email several months after you subscribe to her list.
This is great because it has so much value to help with your blog. From editing tools for photos to a tool to create PDFs, workbooks or eBooks and it also mentioned her Facebook group.
While this email is probably strategic for growing her Facebook group and earning some income from her affiliate links, it’s a great email to give to your subscribers, especially if they are new to blogging and growing an online business.
3. Show a Useful Trick
Giving your subscribers exclusive tips and strategies are what helps make your list elite. It will also lower your unsubscribe rate and it will help strengthen your relationship with your subscribers.
Sending an email that shows a useful trick to get more attention on Facebook. It is something I never thought of so when I read about it, I knew it was something I had to learn.
Getting these emails are awesome for your subscribers so think of neat tips and tricks you can only share with your members.
4. Give Away a Freebie
One of the best emails to get are freebie emails. Isn’t it nice that after a few months of being on a newsletter that you get a freebie ?
You know it’s exclusive because either the blogger tells you or you haven’t seen it on their blog. I belong to quite a few email lists.
I always love to receive these emails since they are sort of conversational and just funny. They also have some great email subject lines that make me open the emails.
Every now and then I get emails with freebies. I don’t realise it until I click on the link and notice it’s not on the blogs. One email I got recently was for a problem solving checklist. These freebies are awesome for bloggers and I always snatch at these freebies when i recieve them.
5. Promote Your Latest Webinar/Podcast/Video
I’m sure you get these emails all the time right ? Especially if you belong to influencers’ email lists in your industry.
But if you’re wanting to do a webinar or podcast or even just to a quick video, this is a great opportunity to tell your subscribers first. This is a perk for being on your list.
6. Feature Other Bloggers or Blog Posts in Your Niche
One thing many bloggers do is sort of a round up of the bloggers or blog posts they felt helped them on their journey to success. Your entire email doesn’t have to be this one big feature, but you can do a feature section at the end.
This is great since one of the best things you can do is network with other bloggers in your niche and feature them !
Thanks for reading !
There are a lot of things you can tell your subscribers about. But, sometimes when you’re creative thoughts are low, it’s hard to come up with some ideas.
Here are 6 emails you can send to your list and still keep them happy and informed.
Now it’s your turn to comment. What types of emails do you send to your subscribers ?
You wake up to an already full plate of tasks and it seems the list gets bigger and bigger as each hour passes by.
This is what happens to me. I’m an independent travel agent and I work from home.
It’s a toss up whether I’ll be able to fold that bucket of laundry that’s been sitting there from the night before or if I’ll have a chance to schedule that eye exam I’ve been meaning to get done for the last month.
I’ve been working from home for over 7 months now, and I’m finally finding my groove when it comes to maximizing my productivity. It’s not perfect !
I’ve developed a system to organise my work, which gives me time to be be more productive, believe it or not !
If you find it a struggle to get all your client work done and then get all your house chores done in a day, these tips that I’m about to share with you will increase your productivity.
It did for me and I’m sure it will for you !
1. Get Digitally Organized
Until just recently, my desktop was the dumping ground for every image or video I downloaded, every free eBook or upgrade I received.
You know the saying about having a messy house equals having a messy mind ? It’s the same with your laptop or computer.
Having a messy desktop just means you’re wasting time finding what you need. The best thing you can do is clean up your desktop and folders.
I have folders for each of my clients. Inside I have folders for preferred partners, best deals and anything else associated with travel.
For my clients I have a master folder for clients and then each client has their own folder. Within their folder is a location then the content.
Not only is it a good idea to organise your digital files, but it’s probably a good idea to name your files the same.
Using lower-case letters and using a dash in between words helps me find my files easier.
If your desktop is a mess, take an hour and clean it up ! You’ll end up saving time for more important tasks !
2. Work Smarter
I’m sure you’ve heard this right ? But, do you really follow it ? Do you find it takes you hours to create an image for your post ? Or, it takes your two hours to write a post ?
If so, you may not be working smarter. One thing I did to help me increase my productivity was practice my writing.
Another thing I did was increase my rate as an independent travel agent. My time is limited and if I was going to make a living doing this, I needed to make posting worthwhile.
Instead of working harder by slaving away writing for peanuts, I’m working smarter because now I’m being paid my worth as a writer.
Since a lot of my work requires research, screenshots, saving images, fact-checking and highly engaging copy, I need all my focus dedicated to my online business.
Stopping to check a text or to scroll through Facebook to see what that notification is on my phone just stops my flow of working
It’s an easy thing to do, but a hard thing to follow. Especially if you are addicted to email and social media.
3. Block Out Noise
My house can be noisy.
And just because it’s bed time, it doesn’t mean it’s always quiet.
My house mate in the room nextdoor talks to his family in Fiji for a good 45 minutes before he falls asleep, and I can hear them on the phone.
So, I have to block out the noise by listening to music on my headphones. And you know what ? I have found I was more focused, creative and was able to zip through my client work in no time.
And it’s not something that only works for me; studies have proven the effectiveness of using ambient music to spur creativeness.
It’s on real low and for some reason I’m able to get more work done, and before I thought I’d need complete silence to work !
4. Delegate Your Work
The plan to get all your work done before your child woke up from their daily nap didn’t happen.
Or, the report you write every week was late.
Things like this happen to me all the time. It isn’t detrimental to my business, but it slows me down and I end up working harder and not smarter.
That’s when delegating tasks or automating tasks is essential to helping you stay productive.
For me, if my girlfriend wants to help “fold” the laundry, I’ll let her. She can put her own socks and undies away herself or put the hand towels in the bathroom.
In my business, I often outsource writing and sometimes research. This frees up my time and helps me generate more income.
I’m also using Tailwind to automate my Pins and I’m finding that’s super helpful. I’ll have to start looking into Buffer or Hootsuite to schedule my other social media posts.
Working from home doesn’t have to be lonely. Involve your friends and family and enlist their help!
5. Pay Attention to Burnout
It’s super easy to burnout when you work for yourself.
Your brain doesn’t automatically shut off when work is done for the day.
It’s important to remember that it’s quite easy to burnout as an online business owner.
You have to pay attention to the tasks that are burning you out. It might be having to clean up the living room, put a load of laundry in and then prepare dinner.
You’re tired and every little thing is exhausting. I get you !
I still work several hours after I’ve eaten my dinner. For most people though, the best time to get most of your work done is in the morning.
We’re awake, refreshed from having a good night’s sleep and ready to take on the day.
Instead of starting off with a million things to do, the best thing I did was divide tasks up. I do some at night before bed and the rest in the morning after breakfast.
This usually works and frees up time to check my emails, get my tasks in order and start my day.
And finally, avoid burnout by taking time for yourself. If it’s watching TV or having a night, then schedule it in.
For me, my guilty pleasure is watching Sport. If I can, I would binge watch, but that’s just not being productive !
Treat Each Day Differently !
For me I need to remember that even though I have a schedule, not every day will turn out that way.
My client piece needs more quotes than what I had thought and now I have to write a whole new email complete with new images and supporting quotes/facts.
While it’s a good thing to have a plan for the day, treat it as a fluid plan. With travellers you have to be flexible.
Thanks for reading. Over to you ! Do you have any extra tips to help you increase your productivity ?

I’m sure you’ve heard how great it is to work from home – the freedom to choose what you want to do, when you want to do it and without any of the hassles of long commutes, or a horrible boss breathing down your neck.
It’s true that work from home opportunities have grown by more than 100% since 2005. More people are quitting their 9-5 job and wanting to be an entrepreneur or just want to earn some income online.
And there’s no shortage of work-from-home jobs available, you don’t even need a degree or experience to get started.
I love working from home, but don’t get me wrong, it can be challenging. You need the motivation to put yourself out there and the focus to manage your workload.
You also can’t start a home-based business on your smartphone, without the right tools, it’ll be hard getting started and even scaling your business in the future.
To help you out, here are six tools I use to run an online business.
Smartphone or Laptop
Obviously, You need access to the internet to work from home. Sure, you can use your old laptop from 2002 or an old version of Windows XP to run your business, but you’ll soon discover that just won’t cut it.
I personally have a used my HP laptop and my Samsung S9 smartphone that’s fully upgraded.
If you have small children, consider purchasing a used smartphone or laptop or get a hand-me-down since children have roaming hands.
A Task Management System
With any work you decide to do – whether it’s freelance writing, or opening up your own Travel Agency, you need a system to keep track of your tasks and bookkeeping.
I use Trello and Google Sheets.
Trello
Trello is an organizational tool for your projects. You can make several boards and within each of those boards you can assign tasks throughout the week.
I have several boards for work and home. The one I use the most is Weekly Writing Tasks. On Sunday, I assign all my tasks and move them to the corresponding days.
I don’t like to use pen and paper. So Trello helps me organise my week.
Google Drive
I don’t have to hit save after everything i edit. Since my business has been growing lately, I needed a project management system that could give me a snapshot of what needs to be done.
On my google sheet I have :
Clients
Applications
Quotes
Type of task
Due date
Submission date
Pay amount
It keeps me in order since I have over a dozen clients that I’m supporting.
I also have other sheets to track my performance.
If you haven’t discovered Google Drive, log in to your account and test it !
A Niche/Service
You’ve decided you want to stay home and work. I wanted to stay home and take care of myself. But, I had to find a way to earn an income.
And I did this by first figuring out what I should do and then what kinds of services I should offer.
Since I enjoy travelling, becoming an independent travel agent was a natural fit. There are many different types of businesses you can startonline – copywriting, blog writing, site content, reviews, selling weight management products, the list goes on.
I chose to become an Independent Travel Agent when I first started.
Once you figure out what you want to do, sit down and think about the services you want to provide.
I would recommend to start off with only a handful of services and over time you can narrow down or improve what you are offering.
A Website
You know the one thing that improved my income ? Having a website dedicated to my services.
When I first started, I had a profile on Guru and didn’t land any jobs. But, as soon as I created my own website and put myself out there I started landing work !
My site has had many changes since I first started my online business and whenever I get bored, I change it’s look. I also clean up my copy and sometimes niche-down.
But, if you’re new, you don’t need to worry too much about optimizing your site. If you have an established blog, go ahead and put up a Contact Me page. Over time you can plan to have a separate site dedicated to your services.
A Scheduling Tool
To help you save time, invest in a scheduling tool like Tailwind. By far, the best tool I’ve used to grow my online business, is to use Tailwind. You schedule your most popular posts and Tailwind sends those posts out throughout the day.
It’s amazing and it’s a cheap way to grow your business !
A Place to Work
You work from home, but this doesn’t mean you can work anywhere in your home. Sure, you can get away with sitting on the sofa whist you fill an order or edit a blog on your smartphone or laptop.
But, over time, trying to work in different spots around the house will slow you down and you’ll notice a drop in productivity.
That’s why its best to have a desk in your bedroom. Prop up that laptop on a stand and connect a wireless keyboard and mouse if possible.
And if you have small children, It’s more beneficial to have one central location for your notes.
If you have a small place you may find that you have to set up shop in your kitchen or in your bed.
So, do what ever works best and stick to it ! Treat your home business like a job you would go to ! It’s easy to get started working from home !
Working from home is meant to be great. You get to stay home, take care of the kids and yourself and still be able to earn an income.
There aren’t many things you need to get started. A smartphone or/and laptop, task management system, a service, a website and a place to work.
Have you considered working from home ? If so, what tools do you need to get started ?
It’s an online jobs. In email processing system you just have to read an email, which is sent to you, process it as per the format and forward to the given email address.
You can get hundreds of email in your inbox on daily basis. You have to read those emails and process it according to the instructions given.
One thing I have to tell you that the email address where you have to send your processed emails is always “prewritten”. Hence, you do not have to worry about sending the finished emails.
Processing email jobs would be easy for you because it is not a highly technical job, it requires basic knowledge of reading and writing English language. That’s it.
The email processing job in 3 steps
Step 1: Check your inbox daily.
Step 2: Read and process emails then send it to prewritten email address.
Step 3: Get Paid through PayPal account on monthly basis.
For Whom Email Processing Job Is ?
As I said earlier, email-processing job does not require you to have any special skills. You must be able to read and write simple English. Simple
Whether you are a homemaker, college student or a graduate, a retired, it does not matter from which walk of life you come from, anyone can do this job.
Even if you are working for a regular job and not satisfied with it, then also you can leave the job and start working full time as email processor.
If you are a housewife and want to earn some money then you can earn it from your home. You can make money online at the same time take care of your family. If you are a retired person and want to earn some extra money then you can also do this job.
Is email processing job a scam?
Well! Internet is like an ocean of information and every information present there is not genuine. I do agree there are many fakers online who proclaims that they will make you rich overnight.
They say that their program can make you money in just few hours and in return they will ask you money to purchase the program. Well! No one become rich overnight because you have to work hard.
However, this does not means that all programs that offer you an opportunity to make money online are fraud. You have to be careful before you join a program.
There are genuine companies that offers email processing jobs. You have to check them for their authenticity. Verify the company then move forward with your plan.
For example, you check presence of an email processing company on social media like Facebook and Twitter. You will find out a lot of people discussing about the company and sharing their thoughts.
Who Provide This Job?
There are many companies with a lot of paper work but they do not have enough employees to do these processing work.
Hence, they find it easy to outsource this type of work to people like us who can do it for them. In return, companies are ready to pay money.
Always companies around the world need to outsource their work to others and that is how you get the job.
Can you Earn from this & How Much?
I must tell you, today there are thousands of people around the globe who are making enough money to make their living. Many of them I know who have left their day job and now working full time.
Yes you can earn money depending upon how much you can process emails on daily basis. The amount paid for this work depends upon company to company.
Usually they will give you $1 for processing one email. Some others may also give you $2, so the amount that you get ranges from $2 to $5.
If I consider that you want to work part time in email processing system then do it.

You commit to a new system/program/method and you throw yourself in excitedly on day 1. By day 3, you’re not seeing results and you start to doubt yourself. By day 7, you’re already looking for something else.
If you’ve committed to something for an period of time, stick it out. Then review your results at the end. Don’t give up halfway through. So many people fail because they give up too soon !
2 : FEAR OF NEGATIVE FEEDBACK
Would you rather feel a little hurt for a few weeks – and then make lots of money…or would you rather feel smart and superior – but continue making less than you want ?
Nobody likes being told they are wrong. But if you pay an expert to help you and you reject that help, you’re robbing yourself of the opportunity to improve.
If you invest in me, I will probably beat up on you until you’re producing excellent copywriting which makes sales. Some people love this – because they become good and make money FAST. Other people don’t – because their ego gets bruised.
Also included in this category is letting negative feedback halt your progress. That might come in the form of bile-filled comments on your Facebook ads. Or only 10 people watch your first Facebook live. Or you have 5 sales conversations in a row and none of them want to buy. The tendency is to think ‘this isn’t working’ and give up.
3 : THINKING YOU KNOW-IT-ALL
It’s that automatic desire to respond ‘yeah, I know that already’, no matter what someone says to you. Loads of people think they are experts in sales and marketing. Yet they aren’t making any money. If you can’t put your ego to one side and admit ‘I’m not getting results, therefore I need help’ – you’ll struggle to improve.
4 : FEAR OF BEING SEEN
We all have a deep rooted desire to fit in with the crowd, to be accepted. Unfortunately this doesn’t work so well when we are branding ourselves. We need to stand out from everyone else.
This desire to fit in causes us to avoid things that progress our business – like live video, sales conversations, charging what we are worth.
It’s that fear of people going ‘What? You’re charging 2k ? What gives you the right to do that ?’
The fear deep down cause us to not put ourselves out there. As a result, we either are invisible, or we come across as ‘me-too’.
This fear isn’t unreasonable either. When you become more visible, people will laugh at you. They will scoff behind your back and say ‘what is this idiot trying to do ?’
Until you start making lots of money, that is. Until you no longer have to sit in some miserable day job Monday – Friday like they do. Then they either shut up, or they ask you for advice.
5 : FEAR OF SELLING
Lots of people are putting out content and being seen – but fail to make an offer to their audience.
Or if they do make an offer, it’s very tentative.
Essentially their strategy is ‘put endless value out into the world and hope someone wants to work with me’. Generally that doesn’t work too well.
You have to be willing to say ‘here’s what I’m selling and here’s why it’s awesome.’
We have about a million blog topic ideas floating around in our heads and don’t know what to blog about or what topics to write about.
Should you blog about everything and anything or just one thing ?
Does a blog niche topic really matter when you have a brand new blog ?
Figuring out what to write about on your blog is one of the toughest barriers new bloggers face when they want to start a blog. This is the one thing that can stop someone from ever starting a blog in the first place.
And, it’s no surprise that experienced bloggers you look up to are telling you over and over again that you must know exactly what to blog about and have 3-5 pillar posts as your first blog posts.
There is no need to do this in the beginning !
But I do know that when you start a blog, for it to succeed, you need a blog niche and valuable resource content on your website.
But, do you need to know what topics to write about every single day ? Not really !
The key, is to know what is important when you blog.
So, if you are a new blogger –then I encourage you to hang around here and figure out what topics to write about no matter where you are in your blogging journey.
The Thing About Topics to Write About
Here’s the thing about your blog niche and the topics on what to write about – it doesn’t matter if you have one in the beginning.
Does that mean you shouldn’t have any idea about the topics you should blog about ? No ! Generally speaking, you need to have an idea or umbrella theme around your blogging ideas.
For example, if you’re a stay at home worker, and you are interested in starting a blog, you can draw from your life and start there.
Maybe you have a knack for organising and using the KonMari method.
Find a few things you enjoy doing in your life and are easy to talk about.
Even thinking about the things you talk about with your friends and family can help you figure out what to blog about.
I encourage you to pick a few topics to start with. For example : solo travelling, family holidays, disneyland.
As a new blogger, you can definitely blog about these topics. There are probably hundreds of blog topics in those categories.
So, try out different blog topics to write about on your new blog and see where it takes you.
A lot of successful bloggers didn’t start with the blog niche you know them for now. Those successful bloggers are probably on their second or third or fourth or even fifth blog.
As a new blogger, treat your first blog as a learning blog. You can spend up to 6 months to a year really understanding blogging terms, what to do after you start your blog, how to get people to read your blog, and how to start that email list.
I can bet, if you take that time to learn a lot about how to write a blog post, you will start earning an income from your blog.
Try writing about different topics.
By blogging on different topics, you will become a better blogger in the long run.
It’s okay to try new ideas out ! Give it a try.
Let’s now switch over to the actual writing. What types of blog posts will help you grow your blog the quickest ?
I’ll first talk about how to write a blog post, how to organise your blog and then dive deep into blogging topics.
Here are six types of blog posts that i know will help you increase website traffic and your income.
Six Types of Blog Posts for New Bloggers
The six types of blog posts I will mention can be written in any blog niche that has the potential to make money.
I’m focussing on what topics to write about that might resonate with your intended audience.
As well, some of these topic ideas aren’t for the brand new blogger, but rather, the established blogger that understands how to write a blog post and knows what to blog about.
At the end of this post, I will break down exactly how to write a blog post. So, read over these types of blog posts, and then at the end, you will learn how to put it all together !
But, I wanted to share these blog post types to help you know what will grow your blog the fastest.
1. Educational Content
The best type of blog topics to write about is educational content. This is the type of content that is highly searched on Google.
According to Business Insider, the distribution of traffic from Google and Facebook show that educational content is searched more often on Google than on social media – like Facebook.
People want to know about budgeting or know about where to find work at home jobs or what the best automation tool is. And those people tend to use Google over Facebook. I would also venture that Pinterest (also a search engine) would be a good platform for users to search how to content.
I can tell you that parenting content, travelling content, marriage/relationship content, gardening content and other lifestyle topics will do well on this visual search engine platform.
Teach Your Readers
People who visit blogs do so to help them overcome some sort of problem or challenge. This is the nature of having educational content on your blog.
While there are blogs that are more entertainment based, to build a community and tribe of loyal readers, you want to help them.
The best topics to write about are:
How To
Tutorial based
Ultimate or Definitive Guides
Let’s go more into detail about these types of educational blog posts.
How To Blog Posts
How To blog posts focus on one thing and break down that one thing into steps, tips or hacks.
This is usually a “thing” that many people are struggling with like how to book a cheap holiday.
As you can see, around 2,110,000 people search for this how to topic each month. This is something you wouldn’t see all around Facebook or Instagram or Twitter or LinkedIn.
So, if you are interested in SEO – search engine optimisation – a way to start ranking in google is to provide educational how to content.
Tutorial Based
A tutorial based post can also be a how to blog post, but typically a tutorial shows you a process of doing something step-by-step.
With this type of topic for your blog, you will also see a lot of images or videos to help the reader understand what is going on.
For example, Hayley over at Organized Blogging has a tutorial on how to design a spreadsheet with a video and steps.
When you show your audience how to do something, you build more trust and credibility.
Now, you don’t have to do a tutorial on something tech-related. Many craft bloggers and food bloggers use video and images to show how to make lasagne or how to make chicken burger.
The idea is finding out what your audience is struggling with and providing a solution with a tutorial-based post.
Ultimate Guides/Resources
The ultimate guide or resource is the pillar type of blog post all those bloggers tell new bloggers to write as their first blog post.
Personally, I feel that’s not the best use of time for a new blogger. It took me, probably, 6 months to feel confident and have the knowledge to write my first ultimate guide. (on my previous blog)
I suggest you blog for a month or a few months before you write an ultimate guide.
Ultimate guides are posts that encompass a whole process for a tactic or more than one tactic.
It’s an all-in-one blog post that covers….everything.
For example, my blog post on how to start a blog is an ultimate guide !
Resource posts don’t have to be as massive, but they are highly resourceful !
New bloggers can attempt to write about resource ideas, and many are a round up of helpful tips or resources like other blogs, bloggers, tools etc..
All you need is Google to find these resources to round up that income !
2. Inspirational Content
Inspirational content is something a lot of successful bloggers tell you not to write about. And I agree, to a point.
Why do we tell new bloggers not to write inspirational content ? Because it is harder to monetize.
But, you can inspire people and still provide value with educational content.
Some sites, though, are exclusively inspirational.
These types of sites are more visual in nature, and they spark an emotional trigger in their readers. They also fulfill a need for their readers through powerful story-telling.
But, inspirational content can also just be a roundup of beautiful things.
Many new bloggers might write a post about their outfit of the day.
It’s inspirational, and some people will want to see what you wore for the day – but, on Instagram….not really on your blog.
On your blog, you can instead write an educational blog post like, 5 Ways to Wear Distressed Jeans.
3. Curated Content
Curated content is content that isn’t yours – you just curated it.
So, these are mostly list types of posts or stories from other bloggers and many huge sites like Huffington Post or Thrive Global have curated content.
This means the topics to write about aren’t generated by you, but by others.
Writing a blog as other stories is time-consuming if you do it alone. Most of these huge curated content blogs publish hundreds of blog posts a day.
For the average blogger, the closest to having a curated blog is a contributor blog.
This type of blog is also great if you don’t know what to blog about. Having others create content for your blog to share is perfect when you haven’t blogged for months !
When starting a curated/contributor blog, you can have multiple topics or focus on a few core topics.
4. Income Generating
Aside from educational content, you should also have income generating blogs posts.
These are blog posts that help you make money blogging.
Again, if you are new and don’t know how to write a blog, I suggest you don’t start writing blog posts for your affiliate products or sponsored content right away.
Get the hang of blogging for a while before you sign up to be an affiliate and then have a plan to write that income generating blog post.
While it’s perfectly fine to write a blog post for an affiliate product in your first month, you may only make a few pennies or dollars.
Another way to create an income generating post is by promoting your products !
Maybe 6-8 months into blogging you decide to write an eBook. (I have wrote 2)
You can easily promote your new eBook on EVERY BLOG POST !
If your blog content aligns with your eBook topic, you can add an image of your eBook and link it to your sales page at the end of your blog post.
You also don’t need to make every blog post a review of a product or tool you’re an affiliate for.
Remember, your blog is for your audience first ! You are helping them with their problems, and they probably don’t want to read reviews of a new tool every time they land on your blog.
That’s why its good to place a promotional image at the bottom of your blog posts. I gives your readers valuable content and at the end, if they are “sold” they will click on through to see if it is for them.
5. SEO Generated
The other type of blog post you should have on your blog is Search Engine Optimization generated content.
These are blog posts that are written to help rank in google. So what topics to write about will focus more on Google traffic and might be less with your audience, if you run with SEO content.
So, how do you write SEO conten ?
First, you need to know what to blog about, and you need to know what keywords you want to rank for. These keywords are usually longtail, meaning they are a string of words that make it easier to rank for.
The keyword also has to be highly searched but not competitive.
And you can find out this information by using a tool like Keywords Everywhere.
It’s a Chrome Extension, and once you enable it, it is on every time you search in Google. It will tell you how many times that keyword was searched and the competition. It will also give you more longtail keyword ideas.
Once you find a keyword that you can rank for, you can use that in your blog post. I would use that keyword in the title and peppered throughout your blog post like your subheadings, bullet lists, and in your paragraphs.
Not every blog post that you optimise with keywords will rank. There are other factors to ranking in google that are much more reliable tactic than using keywords.
I will dive deeper into using this tool to figure out what sort of things to write about.
6. Unique Content
There are thousands of blogs being created every day, and there are millions of blogs already in existence.
This means, what has been said, has likely already been said !
And, the only new information there is online, is personal information.
So, when you can provide a truly unique blog topic on how to do something, that piece of content will get noticed and shared. It can even become viral.
If you feel you can’t think of anything truly unique, another approach to unique content is by infusing your personality, your stories and your voice to your writing.
I write about the same topic several times. But, all my posts are unique because each is different, infused with my personal strategies I use for Pinterest, and each with slightly different angles.
What topics to write about aren’t important to unique content – it’s how you write them !
Melyssa Griffin is one of the best bloggers to follow !!! With every blog post, see if you can tell a story and show your personality. Maybe you’re funny, cheeky, matter-of-fact etc…Find your voice and cultivate it on your blog.
Brian Dean of Backlinko was one of the first bloggers to delve into SEO, and he wrote a ton of unique content that is now commonplace and the norm in learning about SEO.
So, you can be the trailblazer out there, or you can still be unique with your content by infusing your personality and sharing your stories.
How to Write a Blog Post – Organising Your Blog
With a blog that makes money, you need to make sure there is a content plan in place.
How to write a blog post means you also need to know how to organise your blog posts.
An editorial process is something many successful bloggers use. It’s a consistent process that’s backed by research and planning.
There are many tools you can use to plan out your content. You can use a free version like Google Docs to map out your blog post ideas.
Or you can try these other three ideas !
1. Use Your Bullet Journal
What I like about it is that I can be as creative as I want and for me, that’s important. I tend to write all over the place and it’s nice that my blog ideas are all in one place.
2. With a Content Planner
You can schedule a year’s worth of content in only one hour ! How great is that !
3. Digital Planner
If you don’t like the mess from notebooks and journals, why not use a digital planner instead ? It’s mess free and it’s highly organised ! Hayley of Organized Blogging, has a free digital planner you can try out.
Her planner can help you set goals, create your weekly to-do list and help you with keeping track of your SEO research.
With these tools on hand, you can create your own content plan :
Creating a blog post outline
Writing the draft
Editing your blog post
Creating social media graphics
Optimizing your content for SEO
Setting a published date
Have Your Blog Serve Your Audience
With every blog post you write, ask yourself – will this blog post help my audience ?
If the answer is yes, then continue with that blog post idea ! If you don’t know if what you will write will ultimately help your audience, you need to practice social listening.
This means going to Facebook groups and seeing what your core audience is sharing or talking about.
This can help you figure out exactly the right type of blog posts to write for your audience .
Serving your audience also doesn’t mean giving away everything for free. It means really helping your audience in as many ways as you can provide.
Do Facebook, Instagram or Twitter Lives and then upload those lives to YouTube as a way to reach a broader audience, but to also show my audience tactics to help them be a better blogger.
If doing Lives seem too overwhelming, that’s okay, there are other ways to serve your audience.
One way is by starting an email list and creating resource guides.
You can create that in Google Docs, downloaded it, uploaded it to your WordPress media library and then set it up in your ConvertKit email.
By starting an email list and creating incentives for your audience, you are serving them valuable information to help them trust you. When your audience trusts you, they open up and share their stories with you. This can help you serve your audience with with topics to write about even more !
Show People Who You Are
As a new blogger it’s important to show people who you are. This may be hard at first, but it’s important to help you eventually make money with your blog.
Inspirational blog posts and unique blog posts are a great way to show people who you are.
For example, on my old blog, I shared a blog post about how my school days were an horrible experience.
I shared my struggles with school. But, I also made sure to provide value in my blog posts and to remember to serve my audience.
So, I also offered tips and advice in my blog post while sharing what worked and didn’t work during my school days.
I only had a handful of inspirational blog posts on my old blog, but on my most recent blog, I try to show people who I am.
While it’s important to show who you are, you don’t have to reveal everything about you.
My newest blog, doesn’t share that much information about me. The most information about me is on the About page. Over time, I will share more of my personal story on this blog in hopes of increasing traffic.
But, for now, that’s okay. And if you are hesitant in sharing a lot of information about you, that’s fine.
Some bloggers avoid sharing their face, while others don’t mention much of anything about their family.
Now, let’s dive deep into finding out blog topics and look at different blog niches.
What Topics to Write About
Understanding your audience is what will help you figure out what Topics to write about.
So, you know the types of posts to write, the purpose of your posts and how to offer insane amounts of value, but do you know your audience?
To niche down your audience avatar start thinking about who you identify the most with.
If you find that you’re a new mom, but your friends come to you because you can plan the best birthday parties, you might want to consider blogging to an audience of small children and providing content to help plan and organise their home, traveling, etc…
You can also find your audience by looking at you. You can be the target audience for your blog !
Also, you can niche your audience to a less experienced you. This means if you already know how to book cheap holidays, your blog can teach brand travel agents how to find cheap holidays.
Usually this audience is the best type of audience to have since you are always one step ahead of your audience and you have the foresight of what your audience will need to succeed.
Do you need to niche your audience in the beginning?
You don’t have to. For one of my old blogs, it took me a year to really niche my audience avatar to bullied children.
I did occasionally blog to children who got bullied, but it wasn’t my sole focus.
Let’s go through how I figure out blog topics for my blogs.
Find a Popular Post Idea
The easiest way to ensure that you will start increasing blog traffic is to begin writing what is already popular.
Now, you might think, well, there are already blog posts about these topics, why add to this ?
That’s true, but you have to think, if it’s popular, it can be replicated and done even better. Remember, when you write blog posts that others have already blogged about, your personality will make it unique.
1. Use Buzzsumo
Buzzsumo shows popular posts based on the number of social media shares. This is a great way to see if the topics to write about is popular on social media since new bloggers will rely heavily on social media to start growing their blog.
So, if you are a travel blogger and you want to blog to other travellers, you might want to write a post on various activities since this is a challenge for you.
You know that if you are struggling to keep busy, other travellers similar to you are having the same problem.
So, you go to Buzzsumo and type in, “travellers activities.”
You will see that each of the posts ultimately talk about the same blogging idea.
So, for you, you can write a blog post on this based on your personal experience.
Maybe you want to focus on indoor activities, or you can change it up and focus on activities you can do outside.
Take some time to think about different ideas, and you know what ?
Each of those ideas can eventually be another blog post. It’s okay to have multiple topics to write about around a central theme like indoor or outside activities.
2. Google Trends
Google Trends looks at what is trending on Google.
This can help you with the first steps of SEO (search engine optimization). This also enables you to see what blog topics are on an upward trend or downward trend.
You can also compare topics to see if one is more popular than the other.
For example, if you decide to start a blog and focus on more healthy living tips, you might notice the media talk more about poke bowls and where to find poke bowls near you.
You can go to Google Trends to see if this is something new, old or emerging.
On that results page, if you scroll down, you can see related terms of the idea. This can give you ideas on more blog topics or help you add more relevant terms in your blog post.
3. Pinterest
Pinterest is my favorite way to find blog topics.
Why ?
Because I know my target audience for most of my blogs is using Pinterest. I also know that it’s an easier way for a new blogger to start gaining traction with their blog posts.
I’m using Pinterest for my newest blog, and it’s helping me get clicks to my new blog !
Some of my new pins are bringing back hundreds of clicks to my blog.
To help you achieve the same result, you can start searching on Pinterest for some blog ideas.
You can even dive deeper by clicking on one of the tiles underneath your search term to get more ideas on what kinds of things people want to know about travelling.
It seems there is educational content to help new travellers understand travelling terms as well as inspirational content.
This can help you figure out what topics to write about for your travel blog.
4. Keywords Everywhere
If you are interested in writing more SEO generated content, then using a free SEO tool like Keywords Everywhere can help you fine-tune your strategy. This tool was mentioned earlier in the post!
Once installed, you can search on Google as you usually would, but Keywords Everywhere will provide you with more information about what you are typing. It will tell you the monthly searches, competition number, and related key terms.
So, for your travel blog, you also want to provide help on productivity. You know that before you did some hacks or tried some tools, your productivity was all over the place.
You know that your audience probably is at that beginner stage like you (but you solved it).
So you go to Google and type in “productivity.” Google gives you a dropdown menu of more options and one keyword sticks out – productivity tools.
You like this term because it was a tool that helped you increase your productivity.
This search term gets 1,000 searches a month, and the competition is 0.43.
On the side of your results Keywords Everywhere also gives you related keywords.
This is where you can optimize your content more by placing these related terms in your blog post.
So, you do some research and see that most of the posts are round ups (list posts) so this tells you that people want a list post of different productivity tools rather than a post on one productivity tool.
Use a Blog Topic Generator
Blog topic generators are a quick way to figure out what to blog about.
I sometimes use them if I’m stumped or are in a creative slump. Many of them give you headline ideas, but this can at least jumpstart the process of figuring out topics for my blog.
Here are my top 3 favorite.
1. SEOPressor Blog Title Generator
This is an easy tool to use. Simply type in your keyword or blog idea and pick a type (like – is it a person, event, brand etc..) and click on the green button.
What’s great about SEOPressor is that many of the results make sense as well as they provide some great tips to help you improve your blog content.
If anything, you will see the potential of different angles to write about the same topic.
2. Tweak Your Biz Title Generator
By far, this tool gives you hundreds of different headlines and blogging ideas in different categories (like list, love, how to, question etc…).
3. Kopywriting Kourse Blog Topic Generator
I feel this blog topic tool is one of the best as it was designed by a copywriter and the results are framed as popular types of content.
It has a lot of breakdowns for titles, but this tool also gives you:
SEO keywords
Social media posts
Emotional and empathetic titles
Okay, let’s dive deeper into the type of blog niche your blog will be. How do you figure out what to write about if you have a lifestyle blog or a niche blog?
What Topics to Write About With a Lifestyle Blog
Lifestyle blogs are blogs that are multi-topic and that showcase lifestyle living. This can be home decor, food, travel, beauty, etc..
What this meant was creating list posts. But, not just any list type of posts – big list posts.
So, as a new blogger, you can aim for this blog traffic goal by deciding only to write list posts. This is more tedious to accomplish because of the initial research and information gathering, but it pays off in the long run with traffic.
So, what are the steps to creating high-viral content?
1. Step One – Find a Pinterest Popular Topic
Based on your niche, use Pinterest to find popular topics. You will know they are popular when you see a lot of results as well as seeing the pins of big bloggers you know of.
For example, if we plug in – live on one income – into Pinterest.
This main topic can be broken down into a lot of subtopics like “single moms” or “debt payoff.”
Your post can get an upper edge if you do a big list post and include the URLs of the top pins for living on one income in your blog post.
This can help your post by providing the best information out there on living on one income.
2. Step Two – Research
For list posts, you need to research and gather up what topics to write about for your blog. This can take days or more depending on if you’re going to use the images of other bloggers.
For example, if you want to round up dinner recipes and feature a blogger’s recipe image, you have to get permission from that blogger to use THEIR image on YOUR blog.
You can get around this by using the PIN of that blog post in your blog post. This is what I do. But I have asked permission to use images or quotes for two of my posts and this can take up to a month or more to get permission.
3. Step 3 – Write the Post
There are different ways to write a list post.
One way is to list all the things on the list!
This is what Martina does for her blog post on Keto Smoothie Recipes.
You can also provide the image for each list item (if you got permission) and then just add the link to the item.
Or, you can list the item and write a blurb about each item. I feel this is the best way as you are creating long form content that way.
Many blogs use this method of creating high-viral list posts.
I love Jenny’s blog so much because it is purely a list post blog. I’m amazed by her level of dedication to providing huge list posts in different lifestyle categories.
Food List Posts
With a lifestyle blog, you can use this method of blogging ideas to help you grow website traffic and then when you reach 25,000 sessions, you can apply to Meadiavine. This is an ad publishing platform.
What Topics to Write About With a Niche Blog
What if you have a niche blog? What do you blog about? What topics to write about when you only have one topic? Niche blogs are fun and I love niche blogs. Niche blogs focus on a core topic and core audience.
To find blog topics for a niche blog, you need to understand something first –
A niche blog is harder to write because it is niched down. I had a hard time coming up with new and exciting topics about freelance writing.
I had to really sit down and branch my niche out. So I would write freelance writing on a piece of paper and then branch out different topics I could write about:
Productivity tips
Finding jobs in new ways
Writing tips
Setting goals
Different types of services like ghostwriting
Pitching
Your portfolio
Making money
I would then break down each topic into more mini-topics.
When I did this, I suddenly had hundreds of blogging ideas to write about!
So, for a niche blog, think of the big topic or topics and break that down into several types of blog post ideas.
This is the easiest way to come up with what topics to write about for a niche site.
You can dive deeper into this process, by writing top level blog posts and focussing on one topic blog posts.
Another way to look at what to blog about is to provide an in-depth blog post on one main topic.
This type of blog post is usually framed as a How To.
You break one idea down into easy to implement action steps.
This gives you more leeway in creating many types of blog posts around a main topic and can extend the life of a niche blog.
Now to the final part of this guide is on how to write a blog post.
You have the ideas, you have the types of posts that do well, and you even know the steps in creating this type of content, but how to do you write that post ?
How to Write a Blog Post
There are many different methods used to write a blog post.
But, the main things to focus on when writing a blog post are:
Outline your post first
Organize your ideas into subtopics
Provide internal and external links
Provide examples of what you are talking about
Use images or screenshots
Use simple language
Your headline is what will hook your reader
Your introduction is what will keep your reader glued to your post
Introduction
Your introduction is probably one of the most critical parts of your blog post (aside from your headline).
This is what will hold a reader’s attention and help them decide if this is the blog post for them.
To help readers figure that out, you need to get in the head of your readers and have them nod along with your writing.
You want them reading your blog post and thinking –
That’s right! I do have that ! This is what I’m missing !
You can start generating this “yes” mode in your readers by telling a story or asking a question.
Your introduction should also present the blog post idea, the challenge and what the solution is (i.e. what your blog post is about).
Body
The body of your post is where you answer your readers’ questions and help them through a problem or challenge.
You organise your body with subheadings, images and bullet lists.
This breaks up your text and makes it easier to read.
It’s a good idea to provide examples in the body of your blog post. So, instead of telling your readers about something, show them with an image or video.
Conclusion
I get paid to write a complete blog post. And that means having a conclusion paragraph.
Now, I know some bloggers don’t do this, but it’s more content that Google likes and it makes your blog post more complete !
In your conclusion you can wrap up what you talked about and add a call to action. This is something you want your readers to do.
I usually ask a question as a way to start the conversations in the comments.
CTA
You can have more than one CTA for your blog post. For this CTA you can have an opt-in form to grow your email list or a link or image to a product you have.
As a new blogger you may not have these yet so asking a question or having social sharing buttons at the bottom of your post is a good idea.
For example, I don’t have an email list or products. So I just put my social share buttons.
What to Blog About
We looked at a breakdown on how to write a blog post and what topics to write as a new blogger.
One thing to remember is that many of these tactics can be incorporated later in your blogging life. I want you to know that as a new blogger, focus on your audience and niching that audience before you figure out your blog topics.
Understanding the type of blog niche you have can help as well as finding the perfect blog name can help you identify with your audience.
Now it’s over to you ! Hope this was helpful ? Did this help you figure out what your blog will be about ? If you already have a blog, please tell me what your niche is !
