11 "More" Tips About Blogging (plus 1 bonus)

This is a quick one. In and out. They're "more" rules I live by as a full time real estate blogger (part of my job description) going into the eighth year. (Of course, there's much more under the surface of these icebergs.)

So here you go with...

11 "more" tips about blogging (plus 1 bonus):

#1: I capitalize on an ongoing blog series approach (To read "10 Mistakes People Make Lightning Fast Series," click here).

#2: I realize that being a blogger is hard work and takes time so I work hard and put in the time.

#3: I give new life to (recycle / repurpose) old blog posts (To read "What You Can Do to Survive Writer's Block and the Art of Re-Purposing Content," click here).

#4: I craft my titles to capture attention (To read "The One Mistake That, If Corrected, Will Get People to Read Your Blog Post Every Time," click here).

#5: I keep track of what makes a successful blogger and what doesn't (To read "6 'Bonus' Mistakes Bloggers Can Make," click here).

#6: I write what might be considered controversial posts from time to time (don't overdo it).

#7: I teach others the tricks of the blogging trade (like I'm doing here ~ helps to refine your own skills when you do).

#8: I do "list" posts like these (To read "11 'Numbered List' Classics," click here).

#9: I post a video or an infographic regularly (blog posts don't always have to be just text).

#10: I optimize with keywords (notice how often I've used blog, blogging or blog post in this read ~ don't overdo that either so Google won't get mad at you).

#11: I go back and reread a blog post I have written sometimes years later and correct mistakes (you'd be surprised what you'll find).

BONUS: I understand the day sugarpinerealty.blogspot.com gets the most visits (Monday-Wednesday ~ clickable picture above left) and at what time (8 a.m. - 4 p.m. Pacific USA every day ~ clickable picture above right) and capitalize on it (by tweeting blog post urls).
