You may have been writing a blog for some time or maybe you are contemplating starting a new blog for your business, either way it will happen to you - writer's block. It's an uncomfortable feeling of not having a clue of what you are going to write on the blank page staring back at you. The answer to the problem of writer's block lays in what your blog audience is looking for in the first place, high quality content. Here are three things you can do to improve your blog content and get over writer's block.
1. Do Your Homework
Research is the key to having something valid to offer to your audience. You need to have your facts straight and verify the accuracy of the material you are presenting in your blog. If you don't understand your content how can the readers? Taking the time to research the books, magazines, online articles, blogs, and company materials etc. before you get started. This will not only give you ideas of what to write, but you will have a better handle on the content your audience is seeking and will find interesting, relevant and useful.
2. Find Your Voice
Your writing will always be more effective when you are "speaking" in a voice you are comfortable with and is appropriate for the material being presented. Your voice will and should change based on the type of blog you are writing. If you are writing content of a more formal nature, naturally your writing voice should be a bit more rigid and matter of fact. However, blog audiences like to see some of the writer's personality shine through the page. It is difficult to write anything when you are not being true to yourself, at least to some extent.
3. Deliver On The Promise
Make sure you deliver on the implied promise made to the reader in the blog title. Your content should provide valuable information to your audience that is relevant to the title of your blog. Give them the payoff they are looking for when they see your title and decide your blog is something worthy of their time to read.
These are a few steps to take which help you stay on track in your creation of quality content for the readers of your blog.
