5 Reasons For Adding A Photo To A Blog Post

While writing a blog post, there are number of things that can be done in order to make it stand out and get attention of the readers. Besides the foremost thing that it should be well written, it should also be having some difference to catch the eyeballs of the reader. There are dozens of things that a writer can do to make it attractive and smart. They take a very little time but making that practice will increase the readership of the blog and it will become a symbol of quality later. You might have heard “A picture tells a thousand words”. There are number of things that can be done. For example, adding graphics, photos or topic related comics to every post on the blog. It may seem like a small addition, but without a visual addition, many blogs look stale and overly wordy which make people lose interest and attention. I have figured out five fantastic reasons for adding up small piece of image in your blog post and the effect it will create. It worked for me at least!

1. Break up Your Text:

Text may be the crux of any successful blog, but it can quickly become the enemy if it gets out of hand. A well-written blog post does not merely combine mountains of text into a coherent narrative. A good blog post needs to offer breaks, bullet points, and plenty of white space to keep the reader enticed. This way they will not lose the charm and it will keep their interest. If there is too much text and not enough visual relief, it will seem more like work to read the post. The absolute last thing any blogger wants is for a blog reader to approach their blog as though it is work. Readers will eventually stop reading and forget to come back. Be engaging and most of all be simple. Images make this much easier to accomplish.

2. Get More Links:

Every blogger wants to get more traffic and thus the page rank. Page Rank depends on the incoming links on your blog from other websites or blogs. The best way to grow traffic, search rankings, and page ranks is by making your post visible. In other words, if other bloggers like your website, they will tell their readers and you become more popular. Now there are two things:

1. Attract the visitor
2. Engage them to getting back links

Pictures and graphics will do the attraction part while good posts and exclusive information are going to get you the most possible links back to your site.

3. Engage Your Visitors:

You have only 3 seconds to grab their attention before they click to another website. Pictures and Graphics will not only break up the text on a page, they engage a reader to a far greater extent than text ever can. The old adages about pictures being more valuable than any amount of words holds doubly true for the Internet as your audience has an extremely short attention span. Headline and the first paragraph is responsible to grab the attention and compel the reader to keep reading till last. If, for some reason, your headline or first paragraph fails to do this, your pictures very well might. Additionally, well-created, relevant photos remind your visitors of your posts, and may even be reposted on other websites if they are particularly funny or interesting. Imagine a newspaper without pictures! People respond to images. Take advantage of that and you can increase your readership.

4. Show Your Creativity:

If you are a blogger, you are no doubt a creative soul. Do not let yourself be pigeon holed by the limitations of text. You can show the best of your creativity with your images. Creating graphics or images for a post acts in both ways:

1. Fun for you
2. Entertaining for your visitors

Not only that, but the more you show your readers that you are creative, the more likely they will be to bookmark your blog and come back, hoping to find more of your trademark tricks and creativity. Adding an image to a blog can be a quick and easy way to increase your visibility to potential readers and followers. You’ll get the following benefits right away:

1. Your fellow bloggers will be impressed and express that by linking to you
2. Your readers will be entertained and continue to return to your site
3. Your traffic will increase as you grow your visibility in search engines

5. Create a Storyline:

One of the more entertaining aspects of using images on your blog is the ability it gives you to create a compelling narrative for your visitors. You can find humorous or poignant images to punctuate specific lines of text on your page and create an immediate link with your visitors to a specific line of thought you might have. You may write multiple posts about the same topic over time. What better way to remind visitors that they already read a previous installment than using the same image in a humorous way. You engage your reader more in the narrative of your posts and create a closer connection with them. The better a connection you can create between you and your readers, the more likely they are to return again and again. Now there are so many other techniques and tips regarding using the pictures, photos, images and graphics to your blog post, which in turn will give you benefits in both short term and long term.

Four Deadly SEO Mistakes You Must Avoid

1. Are you not satisfied with your website’s SEO?
2. Are you getting mediocre results from SEO?
3. You don’t know what to do next?

If yes, this article is for you Let’s have a look that how one should plan to achieve success with SEO, what are the most important things to avoid, and what are the activities that can be deadly for the SEO and will turn all your efforts down. One thing that should be kept in mind is that, you must target the right key phrases and build links consistently. It is a continuous process - not a one-time effort. With this in mind, we will be looking at the four serious SEO mistakes that you must avoid at all cost. These mistakes must be addressed carefully in order to get better results: 1.     Not Tagging Right Pages With Right Keywords You do not tag your pages with relevant key phrases. This is the most common mistake that many webmasters make. I believe you have seen websites that place only their company names in their Title tags. Title tags are words that appear on the top left hand side of your Internet browser. You must place keywords in your Title tag because search engines give a lot of weight to it. The title tag is like the Title of a book. It tells readers what the book is about. Likewise, the title tag tells search engines what your website is about. If you are trying to get higher rankings for a keyword but it is not present in your title tag, it is very hard for search engines to award you with high rankings. Therefore, make sure that your title tag describes the content of your page and place important keywords right at the front of it. I’ll be doing a post on “Keyword Research”. In that, I will be discussing tools and techniques to find right keywords for your website or blog. 2.     Outdated Or Not Having Enough Content You do not have enough content or your content is outdated. SEO is more than just tagging your pages. You need to have enough content for search engines to read. To rank high on search engine listings, you must place keywords in your content. Moreover, if your website content is outdated, search engines will visit your site less often, and thus view it as less important. This also prevents your site from getting higher rankings in search engine listings. Content is the king. Prepare ten to fifteen original blog posts before jumping into blogging. Unless you have content to put on you can’t go for its effective SEO. It is so important to have original content in order to be indexed in organic search engines. Your ranking will depend on the originality of the content. 3.     Optimizing Wrong Keywords You optimize the wrong keywords. If you are trying to optimize keywords that are too generic, it is very hard for you to achieve success from your SEO effort. This is because you will get yourself into a more competitive battlefield with other optimizers. So, spend some time to do your research and look for key phrases with lesser competition but relevant to your business. Remember that if you optimize keywords that are not relevant or too generic, even if you achieve high rankings for them, there will be no conversion. Again Keyword research will count the most. Use long tail keywords. It will not be a good practice to optimize the website for very generic keyword. Search keyword with respect to the niche. Have a look on the keywords that are coming up in search engines as well. 4.     Not Being Consistent You do not build link consistently. Link building is a process of getting more incoming links to your website. Quality inbound links will help your website to achieve higher rankings for competitive keywords. But link building is a continuous process. If you never do it consistently, you will not achieve good result from SEO. So, always build links constantly and steadily by using article marketing, blog commenting, directory submissions, and other common strategies that optimizers are using.

These are the 4 deadly SEO mistakes that you must avoid at all cost. Let me know if you can add something to this article. share your knowledge in comments.

Good luck!
