Blogging is fun and writing is liberation,that's how i presumed but
walking a step ahead in the world of blogging made me realize the chaos
and hassle it involves when you know nothing of it.
Having a blog account and occasionally putting up posts to share with a few friends is the tip of an ice berg hidden down.I have been writing a blog since 2013 but the reflection of my blogging style speaks volumes that i have not reached the zone of bloggers in years down.So here's an effort to trot on the path with the lead ones (hopefully)
Blogging in true sense involves dedicated time,good reading,marketing strategies of puling up readers,making your blog popular i.e getting in traffic,customizing it well and many more things.
Right from fashion to travel blogs,this word has another set of race.People do earn with it but nothing comes in on a platter.The channelization of time and content needs meticulous work to hit on the popularity list.
And my close observation of how people try to catch attention and hit the list is summarized below:
Diverse topics or single content blog:Tech/gadgets or Home or fashion you pick up a content that is appealing and interesting to you and update all resources there.I am sure you will find like minded readers.
I always had diverse topics but unstructured and i wrote it with the intent of self happiness until i realized i can do much more with the skill of writing.
When i read blogs with different topics or may be reviews , i realized what's missing in mine,the regularity of update and an organization of topics
So here i came up with my expertise blog that is OT WI-SH Occupational therapy ,With Inspiration Shines hope.Now the challenge is of being regular.
Interesting tittles/description:More commonly read topics on beauty blog would be like 5 Hacks to get rid of black heads in 5 days,certainly a person would open it if not read it all.Similarly certain tittles are so appealing that you are forced to add traffic to that blog eg :i was going through certain bloggers advises on increasing viewers when i came across this content as" Top picks to make money through your blog" and i was tempted to read though the content was not of sufficient help to me but certainly i helped the blogger .
So now this gyaan caught me to think before i put a content.
The blog layout/customization: Too complicated home page of the blog would repel the readers back as people these days have very low tolerance and patience to figure out.This is something i have personally experienced ,my interest gets disappointed with very cluttered contents and difficulty in finding or referring to appropriate topics and that's one reason i have maintained simplicity on my page so its easy to drive to the contents.
Blog Statistics: The display of blog statistics like followers or page views,the affiliations,prizes etc. does add cherry to the cake.And to the readers it's like a virtual recommendation of your contents.
All of this of course doesn't build up overnight but a dedicated effort is the key to it.
Bloggers Family: Social media these days has stood by it's strength of challenging the geologist and the astro's proving the world is small. Humans get along well in every situation and similarly the world of blogging has created families where people haven't met each other but know much more than the neighbor next door.
There are bloggers meet and seminars being organized to let people know blogging is a skill and the family of this world grows togeether
Unfortunately i have still not entered this home but have made neighborhood friends at least.
And to end Content and its organization holds supreme virtue to pull up your blog ahead.
Here's a list of popular blog communities for new bee's.

My Best wishes to me and all the aspiring bloggers to bring out quality content to keep reading and writing.
However in this world of blogging do not loose your originality and skill while following some other.Moreover write to appeal yourself first before others.
More to come about growing in blogging in the next post!
