Everyone makes mistakes, some are bigger than some, that is why we are sharing in this post about blogging mistakes, which a blogger should not make.
Do you know about any such blogger who has never made any mistake in his entire blogging journey? If I say honestly, there is no such blogger who has not made any mistake in his pure blogging journey. Because no person in this world is perfect. Every person makes many mistakes in his life and learns from them.
If you want to be successful in anything then the mistakes you make will help you in getting success. If you understand the mistakes you have made and make sure you work on them, you have a better chance of being successful in your work.
Every blogger makes a lot of mistakes in his blogging life but a professional blogger is the one who accepts his mistakes and improves him. Every mistake you make in blogging makes you learn a lot. In today’s post I will share with you some tricky points which many bloggers do in blogging. I hope that you will read this point carefully and try to improve it by working on this point.
If you ignore these points then I can say with certainty that your blog is heading towards “the end”.
10 Blogging mistakes can end your blog
Doing blogging by being lazy
LAZY means lazy. If you do your blogging work lazy then it is a big mistake of yours because blogging lazy can be the end of your blog.
There are many such bloggers who relax in all their work. If we talk about blogging then some bloggers are very lazy and due to being lazy they are not able to do much with their blogging. A lazy blogger has not been able to update his blog on a regular basis, has not been able to write great and helpful content and is also not able to do much of the work which a lazy blogger does.
A lazy person wants to do his every work easily. But you should also know that success in anything does not come easily. If you want to achieve your goal then you will have to work hard.
You cannot be successful in blogging by doing easy work because the blogger is replacing the work with hard work. Therefore avoid other people’s laxity and work hard with full focus on your work.
Laziness can destroy your online business by spoiling your career. Keep your mind fresh and focus on your work.
Not maintaining post frequency
Post Frequency plays a very important role for a blog. Post Frequency means that we publish our blog articles frequently. If you do not update your blog regularly with a plan, your readers who visit your blog will start ignoring your blog. You should fix the time of publishing articles on your blog and you should publish at least 1 article daily.
If you publish 1 article daily, your visitors will visit your blog daily to read that 1 article. Not maintaining post frequency affects visitors as well as traffic, revenue and Alexa ranking. Blog post frequency is very important for online business. Therefore maintain your blog post frequency.
Not replying to comments in an awesome way
I have seen some bloggers who replay comments on their blogs in very different ways. Commenting in blogging is such a great feature through which you can do a lot of work. If you do not reply to the comments on your blog in a good manner then you will lose the regular readers of your blog. You should replay your blog comments like a professional blogger.
If you replay the comments on your blog in a new way, you will create a very new relationship with your people and due to this new relationship, your readers will visit your blog again.
Along with the relationship, comment also builds your trust among other people. Therefore, try to give value to every comment on your blog and replay it in a good way. I hope that you will remove the mistake of commenting very soon from your blog.
Not Building Email List
If we talk about top English bloggers, 20% to 30% of their blog’s income comes from email marketing. But bloggers have not yet understood the power of email marketing. If you use affiliate marketing to earn money from your blog, email marketing can greatly increase the sales of your affiliate product.
Bloggers who use Google Adsense should also use email marketing. Email marketing is one such method through which you can make your blog visitors regular readers. If you are a blogger then you should use Google’s free service Feedburner to build your email list.
Not building an email list is a big mistake of a blogger. I can say this with confidence that email marketing will increase both the traffic and earning of your blog. Therefore, today I have started creating an account on Feedburner and building an email list.
Not Optimizing the Post Properly
Many bloggers fail to optimize their posts properly due to which their blog post appears weak in the search engine. Optimizing a blog post in a better way is very important for SEO. The most important thing for a new blogger is that he first learns about SEO well and only then uses it in his blog.
SEO is a very important element through which we can get organic traffic to our blog from search engines. It is not very difficult to learn SEO.
To optimize a blog post in a perfect way, you have to pay attention to several things. Here I am telling you some points which you can use to optimize your post for SEO. Use whatever is your main keyword.
- Use main keyword in title
- Use Main Keyword in URL (Permalink)
- Add Main Keyword in the first and last 50-100 words of the post.
- Make Main Keyword bold, italic and underline in the post.
- Keyword should be used in H1, H2, H3 Heading tag.
- Use Main Keyword in Image’s Alt-tag
- Use keyword in external link anchor text
- Keep content length 700+ words
- Keyword used in Meta title and Meta description
- Keep keyword density at 2%-3%.
I hope that if you use all these points to optimize the post, your blog post will be optimized properly and perfectly.
Not realizing the benefits of guest posting
Guest Posting is one such method by which you can improve your blog in a short time. But no blogger is getting the benefit of guest posting. The biggest reason for this is that the mind of bloggers is not set and they do not see how much benefit guest posting is.
If you do a guest post on a popular blog, you get a lot of traffic from your blog and along with it you also get a lot of new readers. One advantage of guest posting is that it also gives you a high quality back-link. By doing guest posting you also create a good relationship with other expert bloggers which is very helpful for your future blogging.
There are many benefits of guest posting and you should take advantage of these benefits. If you are a blogger then I hope that you will not make the mistake of guest posting and you will benefit from guest posting on other popular blogs.
Another blogger did not read a blog post
If we talk about bloggers, today there is more competition among bloggers than English bloggers. Every blogger wants to become successful as soon as possible. If you want to be successful in anything, you will have to work step by step.
Networking is one such method through which we can be successful in blogging for a very long time. As a blogger you will have to understand networking and build a strong network with other bloggers. The more bad you make your relationship with another blogger, the better the way you will move forward in blogging.
If you talk about what will be the benefit of building relationships with other bloggers then I will tell you that building relationships with other bloggers will benefit you a lot like –
- You can ask him for help with any blogging problem of yours,
- You can get reviews from us about anything,
- you can get technical help
- You can do guest posting on your blog.
- Apart from these, what are the other benefits of building a relationship with other bloggers?
Networking is one of the most important elements in blogging. You can use social media to build relationships with other bloggers, you can comment regularly on their blogs, you can send them emails, all these things will help you in building a new relationship with other bloggers.
Not looking at blogging “as a business”
If you want to be successful in blogging then you will have to look at blogging like a business. There are many bloggers who look at blogging as a hobby. There is a difference between As A Business and As a Hobby. If you look at blogging as a business, it will help in increasing your productivity and branding. If we talk about popular bloggers, all the popular bloggers look at blogging as a business and consider it a business.
Just like a plan is needed to be successful in a business, similarly a plan is needed to be successful in blogging too. If you look at blogging as a business, your mind will be set to grow your business and many ideas will come to your mind to make this business successful. Never look at blogging as a hobby as it can be the end of your online business.
Another blogger did not read a blog post
Why do we read other’s blog posts because we get a lot of information from other’s blog posts which we can use in our blog. But there are such bloggers who feel that reading another new blogger’s blog post is a waste of time. If you also think like this then it is your big mistake because the more you read other’s blog posts, the more you will know about the things that you did not know.
Blogging is such a thing that no one can ever learn it completely. You gain knowledge by reading the blog posts of other bloggers, but along with knowledge, you also get to know what other bloggers are doing on their blogs.
From the blog posts of other bloggers, you get to know about them and what they are doing on their blog, accordingly you can improve your blog by making changes.
Always thinking about money
The most common mistake of all bloggers is that they always think about money. Blogging is a long term investment plan where you will have to wait to earn money. If you always think about earning money instead of working in blogging, it will destroy your blog very quickly.
You can earn money through blogging only when you work in the right direction. It doesn’t matter what you are doing, it matters how you are doing it and how you are acting on it.
In blogging, many people see big dreams at home but I would like to say to all of them that dreaming does not fulfill the dream but one has to work to fulfill the dream.
To earn money from blogging, first of all you have to know what blogging is and how to work on it in the right direction. The day you get the answer, you will start earning money through it in a very good way. Lastly, I would like to tell you all that you should focus on work more than money in blogging.
Final Verdict
There is a mistake a blogger makes in blogging. There is a good blogger who learns a lot from his mistakes. Whatever mistakes I have mentioned here, all the mistakes are made by many bloggers. If you want to become a good blogger then you will try your best to improve all these mistakes.
Many bloggers spend a lot of their time watching other people’s activities. The more time you spend on social media and watching other people’s activities, the less time you spend focusing on the work of your blog. Your blog will grow much faster. I hope that you will not make all these mistakes in future and will focus completely on your blog.
If you are a blogger then you can send this post to your blogger friends and tell them about these blogging mistakes. I would like to thank you that you took out your time to read this post.
