MAKE YOUR BLOG WORK FOR YOU




3 Smart Ways To Get Your Blog Posts Working Overtime

Once you become a blogger you quickly realize that there is a lot more to building a successful blog then JUST writing good posts.
Your time is limited, you have family, friends, maybe a J-O-B that you have to grow your blog around. You need to do the things that bring the most return on your time.
As a blogger that all starts with blog posts, blog posts can be anything you want them to be.
Have something to share? Write a post.
Have something to sell? Write a post.
Need help? Write a post.
Offer help? Write a post.
I could be here all day but I think you get my point...
Since blog posts are so important, then it makes sense to want them to work extra hard for you.. right?
Here are my 3 ways to get your blog post working harder and longer for you!

Use Titles That Grab People

The first step to getting your post read is to get readers attention with an interesting title.
What makes an interesting title?  All it takes is being creative, but always keep the title targeted to what the post is about.
ex:  “Do You Know How To Make Your Blog Sticky?”  This does well because it’s a question and readers will be wondering what “sticky” is and how they can do it.
Put Keywords To Work Too
Take that a little further and add your keywords into the title. Adding your keywords to the front of your title will give you a post that is now working twice as hard for you, grabbing readers attention and getting that all important search luv.

Make Your Blog Easy To Read

We are all busy, and with so many great blogs to read it’s hard to read all posts word for word.
Many people, myself included will skim a post seeing what grabs my attention, if I see something I like, I will then read the whole post.
Keep It Small
A few ways you can make the “skimmers” see what’s most important is to first write in small paragraphs 1-3 small sentences tops. This makes it easy to read and makes the reader feel like they have less to read.
I have always written in small paragraphs because it’s easier to read and spread my thoughts out, but I got some nice proof recently that small was the way to go.
Other day I was reading the Copywriting Guru John Carlton’s blog
It was a monster post, so I skimmed it and then read it all but I wasn’t planning to read it all. But each time I was about to leave, the paragraph ended and kinda pushed me to the next.
Guess that’s why he is so damn good haha
When I read the whole post I looked at it again and noticed he writes in really small paragraphs and that helped me read it all.
Yes, John’s writing ability is a big part of what I kept reading, but the small paragraphs helped a lot.
Talk One On One
Another great way to get that post working harder, is to write as if you are talking to one person in the room.
write how you “really” talk
keep it simple
stay on point
make it personal
relax the over talk or technical talk
If you met me in a bar and we talked for 5 min you would know I’m JP from Money Dummy blog…would I know who you are?
Use Your Subs
Using subheadings helps the reader navigate your post easier and it also gives the skimmers a quick view of what each section will cover.
Subs are like mini titles… keep them creative to grab the skimmers eyes to want to read more.
Subheadings will help you write a post too. Sometimes I have an idea of what I want to write, I will throw down a few subheadings ideas then go back and write more for that section.
Highlight The Important Stuff
If you have something you really want your reader to see, then you need to make it look different from the rest of the post.
Using bold text or italics is a great way to get readers to see the important stuff.
Combining bold text, italics and even caps is a great way to make the post feel more interesting and also bringing the reader’s attention places you don’t want them to miss.

Promote Action

As you write a blog post you want to throw in some ways to make the reader take action or offer feedback or even continue the conversation after the post.
Doing this will help build an active community in your blog that will be noticed and bring in new readers wanting to join the party.
Here are a few ways to promote action in your posts.
Add a link in your post to another post that digs deeper into the topic.
Ask for comments, ask for their opinions, or their views on what you just wrote.
Ask them to re-tweet or share your post on social sites.
Ask them to join your newsletter or stay up-to-date thru email or RSS.
Your goal is to have the reader to do something after they read your post. Sometimes that means asking for it.  If you don’t ask, you can’t be upset that they didn’t do it.
You work hard at writing quality blog posts, so why not get the most you can from each?
Treat each post like it is a little blog promoting robot lol
Build It, Unleash It and Make It Work for You. Use these 3 tips together with a well written post and you will have a blog post that will work hard for you long after you click – Publish! Let me know what you think or share other ways to make your blog post work harder for you… Leave a comment. :) GUEST BLOGGERPIC JohnPaulAguiar BloggerExtordinaireprosTRIANGLE

UNLEASH THE POWER WITHIN


UNLEASH THE POWER WITHIN
Mention the name “Anthony Robbins” to someone and you will get a variety of comments, looks, glares, smiles, praises, misconceptions. Google his name and well, go ahead and do it if you haven’t already. Even on our TradeSmartU forums I remember when Josh first announced the possibility of putting together a package for our TSU family to attend the event in LA, that there were some negative comments about Mr. Robbins. After doing my own research, I find that there are more people that have good things to say about him than bad. The most common thread seems to be that if you are fortunate enough to have the opportunity to attend a “live” seminar, that one ought to embrace the opportunity with an open heart and mind. That is exactly what my wife and I plan on doing next week.
(My wife drew this picture in honor of Mr. Robbins.) I have never really been a big fan of events like this but we are stepping out of our comfort zone for a number of reasons. I have quite a little library of motivational CDs, books, cassettes and even VCR tapes from Norman Vincent Peale, Napoleon Hill, Brian Tracy, Zig Ziglar, Og Mandino, Dale Carnegie as well as Mr. Robbins, just to name a few. I have never had the desire to walk on fire. I do have a relationship with the One who walked on water and I don’t see why there would be any conflict of interest. I think most of us in the TSU family have the desire to live a fuller more rewarding life, and I’m not talking about money. I’m talking about personal happiness. The happiness that comes with setting goals and achieving them. The happiness that comes with meeting and having a relationship with your “better half.” The happiness that comes with starting a family and nurturing your children into responsible adults. The happiness that comes with having your daughter’s little girl look at you with wide-eyed innocence and say “I love you, Grandpa!” The happiness of planting little seeds in the ground and watering them and caring for them then enjoying the fruit of your efforts with your family. The happiness that comes with sharing the abundance of your blessings with those who are not as fortunate. The happiness that comes with being honest and faithful.

What do all these things have to do with going to LA next week? I think that we all walk a fine line, we like our privacy, we like our comforts, we like our nice cars and cool new smart phones, we like having Google puts when it’s getting hammered, we like having Apple calls when it’s trending upward. We like staying in our “comfort zone.” I believe that what I have received from all of the self help books and audio recordings that I have used is that sometimes we have to get out of our comfort zones and experience life. That we have to take a chance. We have to make decisions to change the things that need to change and to make true changes that are lasting and consistent. We need to take that first step, to reach out and say something nice to someone we don’t know. We need to be available to help other people less fortunate than us. We need to be available, emotionally & physically to whatever greater good we may be called for. Nothing ventured nothing gained, much will be required of the person to whom much is given.
 He who wants the rose, must respect the thorns.
 
 We are looking forward to the Unleash the Power Within event because we want to grow, we want to meet and get to know better the TSU family that I am connected with every single day online. We want to set new goals and achieve them. We want to know how to use pleasure and pain instead of just enduring pleasure and pain. We want to experience things we never dreamed of  experiencing, we want to know people like us who we’ve never met before. We want to be successful, healthy, happy, safe and secure. We want to be focused and direct our focus positively to have complete control of our lives. We want to be better human beings, more loving, more caring, more hopeful, more faithful. We want to boldly go where we have never been before and we hope to see you there.

What Do YOU Deserve?

WE USUALLY GET WHAT WE DESERVE

Back when I was gambling professionally, it seemed like everyone had an opinion on which casino was rigged. I never really thought that, but I also didn't really think that I was winning as much as I was supposed to. To test this, I recorded every single session I played for over a year. Guess what? I was within a fraction of one percent from where I was supposed to be statistically. I learned that not only were the casinos not rigged, I wasn't very good at mentally aggregating lots of independent events. I think that in real life, we all have a natural inability or unwillingness to accept that we generally receive what we deserve. Before I get into this, though, I'll say that it definitely isn't true all of the time. I offer the idea here just a useful tool and framework, not to pass judgement. For example, I know people who have lost close family members, people who have been raped, and people who have been affected by other horrible things. I don't think that they deserve those things or earned them in some way. I think they're an unfortunate side effect of the chaos and variance of life, which is otherwise a good thing. When I was around twenty, I knew for a fact that I would become rich by the age of twenty-five. Twenty five was really old and I knew that I was special, so it made perfect sense to me that I'd be rich by then. I put in a moderate amount of effort, and made moderate progress towards my goal, but didn't really even come close! When I turned twenty five, I was at least a little bit surprised that I wasn't a millionaire yet. I'm still not a millionaire, but I'm not surprised about it anymore. I've seen people work harder than me and work smarter than me and become rich. I've seen the dedication it takes, and I've seen how that compares to what I have typically put in.


I think I've gotten about what I deserve.

I've done some interesting things, worked hard some of the time, and have made enough money to support a simple lifestyle that I like a lot. Strange path, but it seems about right to me. Last year I spent two months getting back into pickup. I knew it would be hard, but in the back of my head I thought, "Hey, I'm a pretty awesome guy and I used to be really good a this. I bet it's going to go really well." It went okay, which is probably what you'd expect when you balance those positive with the negatives of me being rusty, naturally introverted, and in full on hermit-programmer mode. On a more positive note, I think I do a pretty good job of being positive and treating people well, and when I think of how lucky I am to have such great friends and family, I think that I've again gotten what I deserve.

HERE IS A CONTEST TO GET WHAT YOU DESERVE...



                                  

                                  

              GREAT CONTEST HUH?

You can adopt this mindset and think of it in a few different ways. The harsh reality is that if something in your life isn't where you want it to be, it's most likely your fault. We're all dealt a different set of cards, and I think that most of us are old enough now that we've been given a chance to do something with them. So if you were born poor and haven't put in enough effort to make money, I think it's time to stop blaming your upbringing and start taking responsibility. Of course, if you were born poor, are still poor, and don't care, that's totally fine, too. You got what you deserved and you're happy with it.
