Add Bold Statement To The Introduction Of Your Blog Post

The second step that you will have to follow is adding a bold statement to the introduction part of your blog post.

The introduction can set the tone of your blog and if it does not have any kind of bold or valiant statement, the readers will not go through the rest of your blog.

Even, if you have added an attractive title, you will still not get the taste of success. 

Well, the introduction of your blog post is not all about adding a bold statement. 

Apart from this, you will have to let your visitors know about what the blog post is going to cover.

You will have to write the introduction part in such a way so that they get a brief overview.

Moreover, they will definitely make a comment in the comment section.

Always Include Subheadings In The Body

You should not write blog posts without a subheading.

The use of subheadings makes the article more engaging and skimmable.

After following all these steps, you will have to add subheadings. Apart from this, you should not write more than three to five sentences in every paragraph.

Write more subheadings, and make your blog post super skimmable and easy to read for the lazy readers.

Format your blog post using H2s, H3s, and H4s, when appropriate.

Make sure you write all the headings, subheadings, and other necessary points before you write the actual blog posts. It helps you write long blog posts in less time.

Linking To Other Sites

Linking to your own site as well as other sites is very important.

When you are linking to your own website, it will promote your business. Along with this, when you are linking to other websites and sources, it will definitely increase the credibility.
