3 ways to spice up your blog

I was reading this article " 3 ways to spice up any blog post" and I found It very useful so I wanted to share some tips with you!

1) Use language that will appeal to people's senses.
Through the use of imagery, you’re painting a more complete picture in the reader’s mind, which practically guarantees a higher level of engagement.

2) Employ High Impact Wording.
Simple words are the rule, but your thesaurus can help you sprinkle potent and distinctive exceptions throughout your writing. High impact words and phrases keep your reader engrossed via vibrant and vigorous language.

3) Be Entertaining.
Coming up with an entertaining angle, using interesting language and making knowing references will always be a hit with your readers.

Over time, you’ll find which techniques work for you. While you’ll always want to keep pushing your boundaries, a writer who is comfortable and confident in her own style naturally ends up an effective writer.

Here's the link to the rest of the article in detail if you'd like to read any further: -

Happy Blogging

In other words - write what you would want to read yourself.

If you're bored, so probably is the world.

That's good advice.

People should write as if they are actually talking to a person. It will come across very personal to the reader.

A friend of mine admitted to me the other day that he had no idea what blogging really is. He didn't get it when I explained it until I phrased blogging as
"Sending an email to the world".
Then the coin fell. That IMO is how you should look at it. I see a lot of posts from SEOs which make me wanna leave their blog immediately, because you can tell that the sentences mean nothing and are only created to rank for certain terms in the search engines.

That is ignorant. It will eliminate many potential readers and kill the linkbait factor. You don't need to have the best blog in the world, you just have to be unique and get known for something, even if it's just your personality.
