January 11th, 2016 Posted in Training

Do you know the three biggest mistakes blog owners make with their blogs that kill their results stone dead? Do you know what impact these mistakes have on your business?

However, you may want to more traffic, visibility, leads and sales . You may want to avoid the blogging  mistakes that stop most people dead in their tracks.

If that sounds about right, read this immediately because the mistakes and what to do instead are inside this article.

Mistake No. 1: They don't create enough content to make a difference

What is the mistake?

I see this all the time, regrettably. So many people have a great looking website with a blog. But there’s barely anything on their blog. No posts. Nothing to read.  

Or even if there is content, it’s really sparse and out of date. It’s of no use to anyone!

Why is it a mistake?

If you don’t have sufficient published content, then there’s no reason for people to visit your blog. It’s all very well your theme looking good, your layout and banner is great, there are lots of pictures, but really and truly, your readers come back to you for your unique content.

What should you do instead?

Instead of leaving your blog languishing in limbo, it’s really not hard to create fresh content. Just get into the habit of writing blog posts. They don’t all have to be War and Peace! But if you get into the habit of sharing your tips and tricks and people find them valuable, they will come back for more.

Mistake No. 2: Believing they are not creative enough

What is the mistake?

The mistake here is for people to believe they are simply not creative enough. I see this one all the time, too.

Why is it a mistake?

This is a mistake because when people believe this, they close down any possibility of creating any content for their blog. And then when they don’t take any action, they reinforce this belief. So it just gets harder and harder to create content.

What should you do instead?

Instead of believing you are not creative enough, you should first of all bin that belief. It’s not helping you, it’s not relevant.

Now I’ll let you into a little secret.  

Many of the so-called creative people I know are actually non-creative people who have a process they follow. As it’s a process, it’s a bit like a recipe.  If you follow all the steps in order, you can guarantee the results. Anyone can do it.

They follow this process, and bang, it creates the output that people see as creative. The key is to have a reliable process to do this. I'm going to take you through this process on my online training.

Mistake No 3: Procrastinating by not deciding where to publish their content

What is the mistake?

The mistake here is to not take action. There are a variety of causes. Some people delay as they can’t decide where to publish. Should it be on eZineArticles? Another article site? Multiple article sites? Should it actually be an infographic published on Pinterest?

Why is it a mistake?

This is a mistake because all the time you’re delaying, you’re losing prospects to your competitors. People who have less skills and knowledge than you, but who are getting well known in your market as they take action.

What should you do instead?

Instead of worrying where to publish your content, you should just put it up on your blog. Get it up then optimise the content for the search engines. Then your content stands a chance of being found.

Once you’ve done that you can then look around for other places to publish it. But get it up on your blog first!
