The task of finding a digital marketing agency in singapore or any other country where a business owner plans to run his business might not be that difficult. In contrast to this reference, as a blogger, finding your target audience and keeping them engaged with your content can sometimes seem quite challenging. To begin with, you need to know who is reading your blog and what they want to know. This is a fairly straightforward question when you are focused on a particular niche. Google Analytics will give you more details too.

Some good old-fashioned brainstorming will give you some great content ideas in no time at all. Remember to focus on fixing your readers problems or issues, you need to give them something with your content.

Think About Your Headline

Your headline is so important, it needs to grab your readers attention and let them know what they can expect from your post. Those first few seconds can make or break an audition. What question or problem is it going to answer for them? If they know how your going to help them from the outset, they are more likely to click on your post.

Write A Good Meta Description

Once your title has peaked your readers interest, the next place they look is in the search result is the meta description.

This allows you to entice your reader to your blog with a snippet of what they can expect. It should be interesting and give some more detail about how you’ll be able to answer the readers query. It’s your trailer for what’s coming in the full length audition.

Write Great Content

You’ll have heard this time and time again, but it is so significant to giving the reader a great experience on your blog, it really has to be mentioned. It’s your audition, you’ve got 3 minutes top to impress these guys.

The post should cover everything the reader could possibly want to know about their issue that not only do they feel compelled to save it for reference, but they also want to share it with their friends.

Offer Them More Great Content

If your site is optimized with the appropriate content for SEO, it would make your website easy to navigate for users so they can find what they want easily. Give your readers an accessible search bar and logical menus and categories. Give them useful links or suggested reading to encourage them to read more. Help them get around your blog, and this will help your blog! Everyone wants to be asked back for a second audition, right?

Make Posts Scannable

Readers take in information from the web quickly and breaking content down with headings helps them digest what they want to know quickly.

They will see your going to cover issues relevant to them and will focus on what is important. It will improve their personal experience of your blog no end and are less likely to hit the back button which is like Simon Cowell hitting the red button.

Why Does All This Matter?

So your readers see your application (your title and meta description) and click through to read more. They liked your post so much, they want another audition. Your through to blog camp. Woohoo!

Your reader loves your posts so much they ask you to audition to the live show and your thrust before all their twitter followers. OMG, you were such a hit your best post is performing for the Queen and all of a sudden you’ve got a standing ovation (or the viral post!).

OK, that might be over simplifying matters, but you get might drift. The more you help your readers, the more Google will notice your efforts and keep offering you to more readers in search results and so your ranking will improve. Helping readers matters, as Google cares about your readers experience as much as you do! If your readers love you, and Google loves you, you know your blog has talent!

Did you love it? Go on, send it to the live shows! I’ll settle for your twitter followers though 😉
