Most blog posts suffer from the same problem: they feel like content marketing. These signs—unexpected self-promotion, descriptive writing, deference to data, and naivety—create friction between reader and writer, and they ensure that the audience always feels, in some small (or large) way, sold to. Unexpected Self-Promotion.

I only started blogging late December 2012. I knew nothing about growing an audience or how to promote myself. I understand there’s more to successful blogging than simply getting comments, but I wanted engagement. Then I would look at who else commented, visit their blog and find something to contribute.

Once you have an engaged database of subscribers, you pretty much know every blog post you put out is going to be a hit. Plus, I’ve also found that readers who arrive at my blog from an email newsletter I’ve sent to them are also much more likely to share my content on Facebook and Twitter. Make the most of popular posts.

Really the idea was to find a way to put that eBook and the other two that we launched since on sale the week or so before Christmas because I was thinking it might be something that people might give to friends and is just is a good time of year to be promoting something. The blog post itself would be the sales page for that particular day.

I did a brief relaunch of my blog to get a boost of traffic. I promoted a promo webinar at the bottom of every single blog post. I probably could have made my product sales page a blog post too, but I’ll save that test for another day! Is it as easy as just those four blog posts and a sales page?

It’s okay if you are curating what you feel your best posts are. Don’t just take a collection of your posts. A blog post is typically 500-2000 words, but usually closer to 500. Do a bit more research for each post. Do intros and outros for each post. Promotions. There’s value there.

I’ve found that subscriber numbers are way down on all the blogs I manage. The use of feeds has diminished since Google Reader was laid to rest, and I think when Gmail and other clients started filtering promotional material away from the “Primary Inbox”, blog updates via email became less important.
