The Anatomy Of A Viral Post
About a week ago I was invited to attend a mini Bloggy Boot Camp put on by the SITS Girls and Invisalign. Last week here on the blog I covered 5 important points that every blogger should know.Holly (Quirky Momma) from The Kids Activity Blog was also a featured speaker at the Boot Camp. Holly is amazing and her story is inspiring. She grew her social media presence to the hundreds of thousands in just a few short months.
Holly instructed us on the important elements needed to create a viral post and I would like to share this information with you.
Man-day Post: Red Pill Mommy Blogging
It's time for this week's edition of Man-day by Jensguy.*Note from Jen- This is a pretty amazing post. Most bloggers won't share this info with you, but my husband wants to make sure every Mommy Blogger is rewarded for their hard work.
So what if I were to tell you that much of what you thought you knew about building a blog wasn't so. What if developing your content while slowly but surely building a community of readers wasn't the way to gain advertisers and sponsorships? What if there was a system where you were immediately judged and either dismissed entirely or let into the "Cool Kids Club?"
I certainly didn't like the sound of something like that and was very invested in the natural way of blog building where your social networking was the driver to the content of your blog. I wouldn't blame you if you dismissed these ideas as rubbish and continued on as you have. I felt that way even a couple of weeks ago. For that we can offer the Blue Pill.
Take the Blue Pill and you will go on as normal, which isn't a bad place to be.
Now if you wish to take the Red Pill. . .
Three Important Do's & Dont's For "Mommy" Bloggers
A few years ago I started blogging about the children's book my sister and I wrote together, The Practically Perfect Princess. I have watched and learned quite a bit over the years and wanted to share some helpful blogging tips that I have picked up.
1. Do not ruin a good blog hop or post, by being spammy. No one likes the comment, "Just popping in for the hop. Follow me here." This is rude and is the conversation equivalent of saying, "Well enough about you and whatever you were sharing. Let's talk about me now." I do not like when people do that and I know I am not alone in this sentiment. Do not be this person. It's kind of like:
I'm happy for you and all, and I'm going to let you finish your post,
but my blog is the best of ALL TIME!
