Tips for writing great posts that increase your site traffic

Blam Websites • June 14, 2021

Write about something you know. If you don’t know much about a specific topic that will interest your readers, invite an expert to write about it.

Speak to your audience

You know your audience better than anyone else, so keep them in mind as you write your blog posts. Write about things they care about. If you have a company Facebook page, look here to find topics to write about


Take a few moments to plan your post

Once you have a great idea for a post, write the first draft. Some people like to start with the title and then work on the paragraphs. Other people like to start with subtitles and go from there. Choose the method that works for you.


Don’t forget to add images

Be sure to include a few high-quality images in your blog. Images break up the text and make it more readable. They can also convey emotions or ideas that are hard to put into words.


Edit carefully before posting

Once you’re happy with the text, put it aside for a day or two, and then re-read it. You’ll probably find a few things you want to add, and a couple more that you want to remove. Have a friend or colleague look it over to make sure there are no mistakes. When your post is error-free, set it up in your blog and publish.

We lost a true legend in the business coaching world last week when Bob Proctor passed away at the age of 87. Anyone who has been around the business world for some years and taken an interest in personal development will know of Bob, and many will remember him for his part in the famous film/book The Secret by Rhonda Byrne. I read The Secret 15 years ago and was intrigued (but skeptical) by this concept that “the Law of Attraction” influences everything in the world and all that we do. Bob was one of the key contributors in this book and I can still hear his voice from the audio stating that we attract what we think about “by law” of nature, a scientific fact. That got my interest and I started to dig deeper. It turns out the theory that we attract what we think about was not a new concept. I’ve recommended before the book “Think and Grow Rich” by Napoleon Hill in another article, and in my view this is the business owners version of The Secret, with practical applications of how the law of attraction can work for you. It’s fair to say that those two books had a huge influence on my life and therefore the lives of the people I’ve coached and influenced since. Now the idea, that Bob was so articulate in purveying, is a part of my everyday life and no longer a fringe idea that may not have any substance. So how can you be attractive to the things and people in life that you want? Well, that’s the big question, and I’m still on my journey to achieving all the things I think and work for. However, what I can say is that when you have a goal that you are single-mindedly focused on. A goal, you think about all the time, make plans to achieve, talk and write about it consistently. Then you are employing the Law of Attraction to bring that goal closer to you, and in my experience one way or another you will get there with persistence. There is nothing strange or “woo woo” about that, it’s just common sense. What we can do is help control how much we think about something, charged with positive thoughts and outcomes. Visuals like vision boards can help you do this and goals that are written and printed in line of sight at your desk. Using these techniques over the years I have achieved many goals and created wonderful memories that look just the way I had visualised them. As I sit here writing this, as I do every Sunday morning, in front of me at my desk is my vision board, my goals list and my gratitude bag, all reminding me of where I’m going and being grateful for where I’ve been. I now teach some of these techniques to Blam Partners and help them see how they can influence their future by being more attractive to it. Many find it inspiring and uplifting and that’s what’s so great about some of these practices, at the very least they make you feel good! Life is a journey we are all on together learning from each other, and now one of the great teachers of this journey has made his way to the next stage, I want to keep his flame burning as he was a hugely positive influence in my life, rest in peace Bob.
