3 Killer Techniques to Keep Your Readers Completely Riveted Using Just This One Thing

By Mathew Edwards


Everybody loves a great story, and that is a fact which stretches all the way back thousands of years in human history. History was once only shared through the oral art of storytelling. You need to look at what is on television every single day and all day long: story after story about every subject under the sun; even the news is a series of stories from across the globe. So, what you want to do is simply borrow that for your blog, and you can command the attention of your readers easier than you think.

You already know how much people love to keep up with news so you should definitely think about creating a category on your blog for niche-centric news. This is really easy to do when you have help from keyword-based news alerts and it only takes a few minutes of your time every week. You should make sure to update this particular category at least two times per week. Another fantastic benefit here is with search engines--which are also helpful in catching trends.

We've all talked about the power of stories and how you can use your own research or the always helpful alerts to find the stories that are most relevant to your niche. Then all you have to do is write a blog about them and include some comments and anecdotes of your own. It is important to mix-up your content so all your articles and posts are not the same old thing. Plus, and you should already know this, people want stories that are dramatic and interesting and engrossing. If you find stories that are funny, well, you know how much people love to laugh.

So many times all we see are giant blocks of text that are meant to make up an article or a blog post. It's fine to do this but you should be different; embrace the idea of creating content that is more varied in format. Changing your format on some of your posts and pages helps break up the monotony that comes with pages and pages of nothing but black text on white space. In some of the things you publish use lists or bullet points. Having an introduction and second paragraph are fine but then you should use a list of points. Your lists should have at least three but no more than seven points and try to always use odd numbers. We've shown you three incredibly powerful ways to work stories into your blog and the effect will be quite dramatic if you can do it properly.

It's a good idea to publish a point of view that is highly strongly opposed to the opinions and feelings of others that are the most popular. Write your article or blog post in that format and challenge the people who read it. After that, take a giant step back and see what happens. As you have read the above powerful suggestions for more content that packs a bigger punch, keep the following point in mind. Try not to overuse any one particular strategy. It won't be as effective if you overuse it. It is simple to make a list of the writing devices that have been discussed and notice how often you use them. Your skills will increase over time if you do this and use them in your writing.
