Everyone makes mistakes. It’s only human and, indeed, very helpful. Because you learn from your mistakes more often than from successes.
Nevertheless, there are many mistakes you must absolutely not commit. And the same goes for blogging.
Today I would like to introduce 15 mistakes you should avoid as a beginner blog possible. This saves time and nerves.
Error, fault, fault
- MeTooModels is one thing to have. But do not try to imitate another blogger. Blogging has a lot to do with the personal touch by the author. Why should I read the copy of another, if I can read the original?
The biggest mistake is no unique content, unique content that is to have.
- AdvertisingIt is of course legitimate, if you try to earn money with your blog.
You should be aware though, that any kind of advertising is a more or less great deterrent to new visitors. Straight to start a blog advertising is worth even not usually.
Thus provides confidence to start a new blog for now. If the number of readers / visitors then has exceeded a certain limit, you can make it to sell advertising on your own blog .
- Too Much of a GoodThis may sound funny, but can also be harmful to many articles in the initial phase.
Firstly, like many blog readers do not, if a blog published dozens of posts per day. On the other hand one can not usually maintain this pace then. And consistency is very important.
- Traffic issuesIf, after starting a new blog has quite a few readers, then it’s tempting to take up issues in his posts, which promise a lot of traffic.
If these traffic issues fit to blog theme that’s fine. If not, then you are hurting with such actions in the medium to long term blog.
- Target group knowThis brings us to the point “target group”.
Before the start of the new blog you should already know his subject fairly accurate.Adaptation of course there are later still.
One of the worst mistake I keep hearing is: “I write for everybody.” This then means that for anyone really actually writes.
Seek out an appropriate topic, and makes you familiar with the right audience. Your articles will be much better if you know for whom you write.
- Inexpensive designThe first impression is as much in life, with blogs is very important.
This one has really very little time on the Web, a good first impression to leave.
Moves the selection and adaptation of a good theme to it later. The blog design needs from day one, not perfect, but do a very good impression / leave.
- Bad HostingOf course you have to rent a new blog still no server. However, it should not be the cheapest of all or free web space.
You choose a well-rated hosters out there and ask friends or other bloggers for advice is also important is that you can go as simple as possible in higher rates if it becomes necessary.
Ideally, this is completely handled by the hosting provider.
- Promise too muchOf course you should not hide. Anyone who starts a blog, which should also communicate a clear message on what the reader expects.
However, one should not overdo it. Anyone who promises to certain content and services for their own blog, which should also comply with these. A disappointed reader looks a second time over.
- Spelling and formattingNo one has to be perfect in the German language, if he runs a blog. However, there should be few errors which creep.
I’ve already left many blogs again, because the lyrics are really caused pain to read. It looked good and interesting content.
- too little textWhile there are many discussions about what can be too much text for an article and what not, but in one thing, there is agreement. Who delivers too little text, which will hardly succeed. 200-300 words should be, so search engines can do something with the content.
- SEO ignoreMany new bloggers Streuber against search engine optimization (SEO). They believe that the contents are good enough so that they prevail.
But this is a mistake because it will not go without SEO. It does not matter how good one to me on the street cars Formula 1 is partially or unflattering to the pageant.
Google is a machine and tries to see from these various features, what is it on a page and how relevant these dates are. With SEO-permitted activities do you do this only clearer and more visible to Google. It shows the best side, so to speak.
So this is not about “shit” (sorry) from Google. I do not own and that is the medium to long term is not necessary / not pass.
- Headings underestimateInternet users do not have time. So many websites and blogs vying for the attention of readers.
Not many readers will read an article in spite of a boring headline.
You must grab the reader already in the heading and arouse his interest. How to do that,
- no interactionBlogs are a two way street. Whoever is not with his readers to interact, which is also not able to build readership base.
Answers to questions and take advice on this example and processed into new products.
- no marketingJust like SEO is also an active Marketing is very important for the success of a new blog.
Stir the drum for your blog, comment on other blogs, writing guest articles, take care of back links , use social websites and read my weekly traffic tips
Must also sell themselves as a blogger and his blog. Those who neglect this who forgives a lot of potential.
- No ImprintA provider identification is required in Germany for many blogs and websites. Already an AdSense banner can be used to imprint duty lead.
This information should not conceal but also otherwise. Live blogs straight from the trust in the author and why you should be open and imagine the imprint.
The use of such information as Google Analytics requires the imprint (or a similar site).
Your opinion
The listed errors are of course subjective to some extent.
Many of the one point or another will see it differently. This is of course legitimate, and I’m looking forward to your opinions.
