<\/a><\/p>\n It’s hard to guess what people want sometimes, especially when you’re writing week in and week out. But a few trends have evolved online that virtually guarantee certain methods of blogging to be successful.<\/p>\n Here’s a list of the three best ways to blog in a way that will appeal to readers the most.<\/p>\n Social media has taught us to view the written word more like the spoken ones. A conversation on Facebook or Twitter rarely has a formal, stiff feel, and most blog writing shouldn’t, either. If you’re a real estate attorney, then maybe yes, certain aspects of your writing (mainly your professional biography) should have a formal tone and professionalism to it.<\/p>\n Take a look at the hottest content on Facebook, Twitter, and most of the rest of the Internet as a whole. Most of the time, funny items tend to spread the fastest.<\/p>\n Obscure and interesting writing seems to travel faster as well, due to its contrast from the noisy replication of mundane pieces throughout the Web. A great way to combine this approach with offline operations is to do funny or interesting pieces about funny or interesting events that happen offline.<\/p>\n That’s how experiential marketing<\/a> began. Marketing campaigns become more popular among readers when they’re a blend of online and offline activity.<\/p>\n The cost of traditional education has skyrocketed, whether you’re speaking of learning at a traditional college or more specialized technical schools. There are ways to learn valuable skills and information, but too often the useful material is scattered across different sources, and it’s inconsistent.<\/p>\n Why not take some time to write content that explains to readers how to compare rates on loans, and how comparing mortgage rates saves them money<\/a>? You’ll show them how to do it, and give them reasons for it, and educate them all at once.<\/p>\n The educational approach to business is helpful, effective, and it’s what many readers want.<\/p>\n1. Make it conversational<\/h2>\n
2. Make it funny or interesting<\/h2>\n
3. Teach them something<\/h2>\n
