7 Killer Tips to Write Content that Readers would Love to Read
It happens quite often that we research a lot for an article before hitting the publish button and sometimes we do not get the expected opinions or feedback from our readers.
Everyone wants Good amount of opinions from their readers to the posts that they publish on their blogs.
It happens often that do a lot of research for the Content but in the end, to our surprise, we aren’t able to get the desired feedback that we expected.
Actually our post isn’t able to give that catchy feel in it and the most possible reason is lack of research in it. However, I have been blogging since long now and I have learnt several tips to get that catchy feel in the Content from Pro Bloggers like Darren Rowse, Life Hacker, etc.
The tips I would be sharing today would help you to write such content that readers would love to read and stick to it from bottom to end.
1. Exclusive Topic
When readers come to your blog, they want to read something Exclusive or new as they have never wanted to read boring content. They come to your blog with a hope that you will deliver something really interesting and to them. It’s worthless if you are posting and repeating the same thing again that your readers are already aware of.
In fact, Topic is the base of what you are writing. If you want more audience to your content that readers would love to read, then an Interesting and Exclusive topic is very necessary to attract more audience.
Personal Tip: Never write something local or National, write something that people all around the world would love to read i.e. Write Global. Write something that people find interesting and it covers wide source of information. As such, you would be able to drive more audience.
2. Catchy Headlines
Whenever a reader visits your blog to read something, the first thing he sees is the headline of the blog post. In fact, do you know that when I was new to Blogging I submitted my first Guest Post as ‘3 Ways to Drive Traffic to your blog’ but the admin changed the headline to ‘3 Killer Ways to Drive Traffic to your blog’ and do you know that ‘Killer’ term made much impact on the readers and enticed them to read the full post. And from that day itself, I learnt the importance of writing Catchy Headlines So I strongly recommend you to write an attention grabbing headline to force the reader hit on ‘Read More’ button and take a glance at the whole post.
3. Make your Intro Para Interesting
Now when talking about intro paragraph, then intro paragraph is the first paragraph of your Post. In fact, when readers checks to read any post, the first lines reader reads is from the Intro paragraph. Try to make your Intro Para more interesting as it will force the reader to stick to the post from beginning to the end. Add some catchy lines and little explaining about you would be sharing today, So that the reader could be aware about he is going to read further.
If you keep your Intro Para very boring and do not explain about the post, then chances are rare for the reader to dive for further reading.
4. Write within Points and Sub-headings
Do you know writing in Points and Sub-headings is working Great nowadays and you know why? Because it makes your post easy to understand and readable. In fact, Readers really like to read within points and Sub-headings as it helps to understand the post easily and even helps to readers to read the post within less time. Explaining your posts into several points makes it easy to understand and readers enjoy reading your content. Nowadays, you can see that an absolute majority of posts are written within points and Sub-headings as it makes the post more controversial as well as easy & understandable.
5. Use of relevant Images
‘A Picture is worth of thousand words’
Do you know Images have a Great Impact on your content? In fact, Images are a vital part of a blog post and it entices the reader and makes the post more Interesting.
So Use of conceptual i.e. relevant makes the post more Interesting, easy & understandable for the readers and it explains the whole story of your content at a single glimpse. Pictures attract Readers. Well, do you know about ‘The Bad Blogger’, He uses pictures of sexy girls in his post and that creates a huge impact on the minds of readers.
So, Inclusion of a conceptual, interesting and an attractive image is necessary to make your content readable and catchy.
6. Make it Short & Sweet
Try to make your post short & humorous, so as to attain more readership. Always try be more humorous, so that the reader enjoys reading an ever get bored. Well, by short post, I mean that do not make it up to 5000 words as most readers do not have this much time to go through such lengthy Posts. So, keep your post short enough that reader would find enough time to read the whole post. So, keep your posts short and humorous.
7. Positive Attitude
Well, I think everyone knows the importance of positive attitude in this living world but same plays an important impact in the online world when a reader reads your post.
In fact, do you know that – “Attitude is a Small Thing that makes a huge difference” and yes, it does has a Great Impact on the minds of your Readers.
Well, start your post with some positive signs and let them believe that this post is worth reading.
So, guys be positive with your blog readers and try to explain your posts with personal experiences as this makes your post enjoyable.
Make your post with motivational quotes and act like a helper, not as a salesman. Always be ready to help your readers and write and explain posts like a friend, not as a Teacher.
My Final Words
I shared some simple tips that must be kept in mind while writing a post, and as such, the reader will enjoy reading the post and stick to it from bottom to end.
These tips will help to raise the catchy feel in your article and as such, makes your post readable and easy to understand. I strongly recommend you to develop your own catchy style of writing and improving your writing skill would help to grab more audience to your blog and gaining loyal leaders.
So, do you have any other way of making your post readable and making it reader -friendly?

I agree with you Amit.! Attitude is the most important part for achieving blogging success. I have seen a few bloggers who feel proud of them self, some are successful and some are not. I started Blogging from last march has have came across many good and bad bloggers. Getting back to the post i totally agree with the points you have mentioned above. Selecting the right tittle is the most important thing, Writing a good article wont help if one uses inappropriate tittle.

Nice post…Here i want to add my own view ..Many bloggers insist on churning out 1000 / 1500 word blog posts. Most of my blog posts are between 400 and 700 words long. Some are under 100. Learn how to get your point across clearly, and in as few words as possible. This makes your content more information rich and less fluffy. My most popular posts are almost always the shorter ones.
Content marketing needs content. If you want to build your readership and for your blog to remain relevant, you need to turn up regularly. So, the next time you find yourself believing you can’t manage to write a few blog posts a week, make sure you not expecting too much from yourself. If I set myself some of the barriers other people do, I wouldn’t be able to produce regular content either.
