Success is a realism, it does not come by the virtue of mistake when talking about being a successful blogger. Every blogger wants to succeed and become influential either you are a newbie or pro-blogger, one of your aims for joining the community will be to make money from your effort, be influential, and this can only be achieved when you are being reckoned with as a successful blogger.
Many rate successful bloggers based on what they have achieved so far in their blogging career while some bloggers categorize successful bloggers based on the influence they have in the community, and some others on how much the so-called successful ones are able to assist the “unsuccessful ones” since it’s a community for all but inactual fact, it’s a battlefield where everybody strives for survival.
To become a successful blogger goes beyond merely doing the ordinary, it’s indeed great work and most often, the fast running does not always win the race but that doesn’t count in blog-o-sphere; aggressive bloggers seems to have quality traffic which in no time can reduce their blog’s Alexa Rank and start to bring some cool money from direct advertiser’s but how do both aggressive bloggers and successful blogger succeeds in this world of blogging?
Below are the 4 Dangerous tools used by most successful bloggers to succeed in blogosphere.
1. Quality content : There is no doubt about this that content is the king, writing quality content always will proof to your readers that you are an expert in your niche, it doesn’t matter whether your niche is highly competitive or not. Chances are that, that there are lot of things that have not been discussed in your niche which can give you a fly over, over your competitors and not until you spy your competitors keyword before you can write an epic content.
Writers were not created, they are self-made. Making proper research on what to write will give you a better idea on what you are to write about and don’t be in haste to hit the publish button, quality content must be at least 75% error free and the content of the message must be communicable.
2. Promotion: Blog post promotion is one of the most important aspect of blogging, thousands of quality content does not guarantee you a thousand visits per day but a hundred of quality content can generate a thousand unique visitor with proper promotion.
There are many ways you can promote your blog posts, some of which are; social media channels like Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, LinkedIn, etc.; blogging communities like Bizsugar, BlogEngage etc.; twitter retweet sites some of which are Justretweet, tweetlow, and also using the big G + (Google plus) will definitely increase your blog traffic and as time goes on, your blog Alexa Rank should start decreasing (the lower the Alexa rank, the higher the traffic).
3. Traffic: Blog traffic is subject to blog promotion, blog traffic depend solely on your blog promotion techniques or strategy.
