Just imagine if you developed one of the most popular blogs in your niche. Think of how much money you could make and imagine how big your list would be! All of this is within your reach – especially if you follow these 5 tips for becoming a better blogger…

1. Survey your readers to find out what they want – Adding a poll or short survey to your blog not only makes your blog interactive (which is a good thing), it also gives you an idea of what kind of content and solutions your readers are looking for.

2. Write about hot or controversial topics to spur discussion – When there’s a controversy going on in your niche, decide which side you’re leaning towards and blog about it. Push a few emotional buttons. Then create a call to action at the end of your post where you specifically ask your readers for their opinions and feedback. The more emotionally charged the post, the more likely it is that you’ll get comments.

3. Optimize your posts for the search engines – You don’t have to optimize every post you make. But if you make a point to optimize at least one post per week, you’ll see a steady increase in traffic.

 Tip: Use a tool like WordTracker.com to uncover your niche keywords. Choose words that have low competition. Then include your keywords two or three times for every 100 words of content.

4. Learn to create killer headlines – People will decide whether to read your post based on your headline. As such, use headlines that include power words like “how to”, “amazing”, “secrets” and “discover”.

5. Interact with your readers by answering their comments – Your comment section isn’t just a place for your readers to talk amongst themselves – it’s also a great place for you to interact with your readers. In fact, if you’re not responding to comments on your blog, you’re missing out a huge opportunity. Since people buy from those they know, like and trust, this simple act of interacting will grow your income.
