When you plan to write the best content available in your niche that has the potential to go viral. All you think of is hell lot of hard work, several days for research and writing, but the truth is that writing quality content ain't that difficult.

Off-course, you need to put some extra effort in that article; which will require hard work. But should that content take the amount of time it normally takes?

Actually, it totally depends on how fast your mind fill up with new thoughts and your ability to express your thought into words and phrases. 

If you have planned to write something special in the past for your blog, then that content would have surely costed you a considerable amount of time, probably, way much than the normal articles you write
. But in this article I'm going to share 5 Tips that you can use to fasten the process of content creation for your blog.

1. Write what you know and like:

This is one of the most important points to keep in mind if you want to create content quickly in no time. If you start writing topics that you're not familiar with, then you'll need hell lot of research to complete that article. Writing about things that you don't know much is OK, if you want to know more about that topic.



But if you're writing on topics that you've got no interest in then you need to change the niche of your blog. Because you may drag yourself with that niche a month or two, but at last you'll find that things aren't working for you and you're getting fed up of this thing.

Doesn't matters how much profitable or traffic-studded that niche is, Just quit it!

After all, if you're looking for the perfect blog for yourself then you need to focus on your satisfaction not money or anything else. You shouldn't ever feel like you're working, that is the only way to stay in the Blogosphere. Otherwise you're going to leave it before anyone else knocks you out!

2. Don't work when you don't want to:

Quite a few days have passed since the last article was published on your blog; visitors are hungry for fresh content. You're bounce rate is increasing and you're loosing visitors. What should you do now?

The most common answer will be to leave everything and start creating content. Yeah, the approach is right, but it needs some tweaks.

If you're spending too much time on creating content, and still can't get it done, then STOP! It is a big sign that you're taking too much burden on your head.

Believe me, a whole day of work can't get you the results what an hours of work can. The thing is that when you push yourself towards the computer screen when you really want to take a deep breath in open air, you're most likely to end up with nothing.

1.Right Audience Equals Facebook Likes:

This is the most important step in increasing your Facebook page likes.Knowing what kind of people you are targetting will help you more than anything else.

You know your niche, Right ? Than you probably would know the popular blogs in your niche that have enormous facebook fans.

List all of them out.I want you to save that list in a place where It is safe and easily accessible, maybe a spreadsheet will be a nice place.

Now Facebook offers an feature of using Facebook as profiles and pages too.You need to use Facebook as your page.Follow all the pages that can get you the audience that you target in your blog.

Then make their fans feel your presence by commenting on their updates.

The commenting should be informative about your niche, something that helps others.

Don't go for useless and funny comments they aren't gonna get you anywhere.

Use the reply feature to respond to the queries of their audience.Once you start sharing useful info that will  prove helpful to the audience you will gradually start getting likes from other pages that will help you boost up your traffic.

The strategy is quite useful in fulfilling the term "Reach the Right Audience" and the best part is that as soon as you get likes from the people that can show interest in your content you are more likely to get some more post engagements.

2.Be Active To get Likes:

It's just like dealing your own blog. No new content, no traffic. Same thing goes for Facebook pages too.

Facebook pages lose reach when don't post much. Although I don't follow this tactic myself but it is a fact that if you don't post often you are pushing your Facebook page to death by your own hands.

There is no hard and fast rule that you are only supposed to post your blog updates on your Facebook page. Try sharing some motivational quotes, these work best everyone likes to get motivated.

These posts are going to get you more shares and more engagement and as you know sharing on Facebook means that the post will get more reach that will increase your Facebook page likes.

E.g : Lets suppose that you cover two topics on your blog.One is Blogging tutorials and the other one is Web designing.

Why Should You Do So ???

Well its all about making your title reader friendly.

The content listed on the search engines with blog title first and then the post title kind of confuses the searchers.

You know how??? Because when they search for something , they look for some exact match of their search query in the title and when they read the blog title first which is most frequently not related to their query it makes them think that this page is not what they are looking for and as a result it causes your content to be ignored by the searchers.

5 Tips To Assure Bright Insurance Career : -

1. Don't Ever Copy Insurance : -

  Well dear bloggers if you are copying others content to your blog. And if you think that copying content from well developed sites will result in traffic to your blog, then it's the biggest mistake of your life.

Believe me only this factor has got weight enough to roll over and destroy your blogging career. If you think Google or other search engines don't know that who is copying others content, then you are sadly mistaken.

Believe me these search engines are way more smarter than you if they have got bots to index every site on the internet, then what makes you think that they don't have one to identify copycats.

Well as a whole it is a fact that copying others content will downgrade your blog in S.E.O factors.

Just leave the search engines there are some sites that can spot the copycats. As an admin of a blog if my content gets copied it takes just a report to Google or DMCA from me to destroy that persons blogging career It's good to read content from well developed sites that will surely enhance your writing skills and your knowledge too, but don't copy the content just copy the ideas not the content.

2.Don't Mess up with Insurance robots.txt and Custom robots header Tags : -

  So what are these Custom robots.txt and Custom robots header tags ? well for now just keep in mind that that both of these are for bots.

What kind of bots ? These bots are called crawlers and spiders there main purpose is to index sites. Every search engine has it's own bots to index sites.

Just consider these two things as a guide for the bots guiding them what should they index and what should they leave. You can find them in the search preferences in settings.

I am not saying that you should not enable these as these two play a vital role in indexing your blog and when your blog gets indexed you can get traffic from search engines but i am just saying that don't enable it if you don't have the idea what are they for. As the waring mentioned in crawlers and indexing section is there for some reason .

I will be posting tutorials soon to enable these so keep in touch.

3.Build Insurance For Your Blog before Building Backlinks : -

So after learning that your blog can only get a high PR and traffic from search engines when you have plenty of backlinks to your site basically which is called S.E.O (search engine optimization). 

If you are not familiar what this term is then follow the below link to learn about S.E.O that plays a vital role in getting traffic for your blog from search engines.


Posting to your new blog can be at times boring know why ? because it doesn't matter how much quality content you create it will not get the deserved appreciation in terms of comment and social shares because when there is no traffic on your blog there will be no one to appreciate it but you know why it is important to create content for your blog before creating backlinks ?

 Lets's suppose that you have guest posted to a site and fortunately it is been approved then for sure you get a backlink to your site but guest posting is not only a way to get  backlinks but it is also a way to introduce yourself and your blog in front of new communities. For example if i read your guest post and i liked it so i would surely like to visit your blog and guess what ?

When i see about a no or poor content on your blog i will have no interest in your blog. That is why building content first for your blog matters in order to convert temporary readers to loyal readers of your blog.


4. Give Your Insurance a Professional Look : -

The appearance of your blog always helps to get more readers and more importantly it will help you maintain your old readers.

Clean and nice looking designed sites are not only warm welcomed by the readers but it also gives you S.E.O benefits as to provide reader friendly results is the best priority of the top search engines.

Now giving your site a professional look requires a few things. First of all if you are using Bloggers default templates then it is highly recommended to change your blogs template as quickly as possible, the reason behind it is that most new bee bloggers choose blogger to start there blogging career and they also use the default templates so you some how need to differentiate yourself from them, giving your readers a good impression about your blog. Here are some articles I have written to remove some unprofessional elements from your template.




 Another thing essential to give a professional impression on your readers is that you make your pic appear in the search results along with your content.

It really gives a good impression on searchers and studies show that searchers like to read content that has a pic of the author attached with it.

If you don't have an idea what i am talking about just check out the pic given below then you have a better idea what i am talking about.

So that is where your pic will be appearing in the search results just like the authors of well developed sites.

I have written a tutorial about how you can get your pic attached in Google search results, if you want to read about it then follow the link given below.


In addition to all of the points I have mentioned above you need to take care of some more things.

Make sure you provide your readers some nice looking widget to share your content, it's for your own good more the content will get shared the more readers your blog will have.

Make sure you have email subscription widgets atleast in your side bar and the end of every post, these will provide you loyal readers to your blog which are interested in your content.

If you are looking for widgets then do check the widgets i have posted on Eliteblogpress.

Now lets talk about the pages you should have on your blog. The About me page which tells the readers about the author and admin of the blog is essential.

Now what should you have in your about me page, first just write a paragraph about yourself then share your story about how you got in to blogging, define your skills and also define the Goal that you have in mind for your blog. the content you will be providing it your blog.

Another page is Contact us page.Just give links by which your readers can connect to you different platforms and then in the just give your email to end the page.

5. The First Thing Insurance Judge About Your Blog : -

The first thing your readers judge about your blog is obviously the first thing they see.

I am talking about the banner or the Header of your blog.You should have enough skills to make a banner of your site yourself. But if you don't you will have to contact a blog designer.

Yeah I know it costs money but it is very well worth the investment.

Share Your Views : -

These are some of the tips that can make the blogging career of a new blogger. I tried my best to get the best possible for you and now it is your time to contribute in the post.

Feel free to share your views by commenting and if you have queries unanswered simply contact me and if you liked this post so please share it to help others like you.
