Let's start our journey,


.

  1. Choose the compelling niche 


    


Decide what you want to write about ?

Have lots of topics in mind? Fantastic—note them all down.

If you don't have topic , don't panic we will help you in digging compelling topic by using some helpful tools

  • Buzzsumo

  • Ahrefs

  • Ubersuggest

  • Google trends

  • Google keywords planner


Enter some topic in such tools and they will show you  trending list of all related topics .From here, just check the column that tells you how much estimated monthly organic traffic the top-ranking pages have.


This is important to do because some topics may not be worth your time and effort.

Now that we’re left with a handful of ideal topics, it’s time to check for two crucial things that can hold your blog post back from ranking:  

  • Competition

  • Intent of reader


Competition


Check the Keyword Difficulty(KD) metric in ahrefs, which gives you an estimate of how hard it would be to rank your post in the top 10 Google search results.


As a very general rule of thumb, a KD lower than 10 should be “rankable” for a beginner blogger.


Intent :


In simple terms, this means making sure that the keyword has “informational intent.” To check that, take a look at the SERP overview in Keywords Explorer, which shows you the current top-ranking pages for the query and  what people want to know about ?


2.Make latest research:

        

Now it's time to get into that research or special knowledge that you can offer readers.


One of the biggest roadblocks to blogging is assuming you have to say something that's never been said before. That's not necessarily true; you just have to find a way to say it better. 


Think about what you want to say, 

and find out what’s already been said. Then consider what questions are left unanswered


how you can bring your own insights to the topic. This is your opportunity to shine! 


Devote some time to diligently research and find the best resources for your post. Save some stats and facts to be used in post


Also, consider the format of your content – people love easy to read, bite-sized chunks of information. They also love:


  • How To’s”..how to start perfect blogging

  • X Ways to…” 5 ways to increase traffic

  • Top Tips.        10 tips that makes blogging easy

  • Ultimate Guides …... easy blogging



You can use tools like BuzzSumo.

BuzzSumo provides you with articles that gained the most shares over a chosen period of time.


 You can also use Buzzsumo to see influencers in your field and then check if they have any content covering your topics. This could be a very helpful tool when looking for topics or curating content.


Next, don’t forget to check the search results for a given subject and see what’s on the first page. 


Over 25% of People Click the First Google Search Result

A study of billions of search results finds over a quarter of Google searchers  click on the first organic result


In the top 10 results – in incognito mode – you’ll find competing articles. So read them all and treat them as your guidelines.


If you don't have unique knowledge, but simply know the topic well, you can source some statistics and facts and then analyze it.


3. Create An Outline :

A transparent outline is necessary for organizing your content because the majority of visitors just scan your article instead of reading it.

Perhaps you’ve heard that people don’t read on the Internet, they just scan.

In order to make post easily scannable,

organized it  before you begin writing.


Divide your blog post into concise short paragraphs that  help your readers.


Paragraphs make your content structure clear, organized and easy to scan. They improve the readability of your post and its overall aesthetic.

There are other methods for organizing your content and making it more reader-friendly. When possible, use


  • bullet points, 

  • quotes, 

  • bold a fragment, 

  • italicize some keywords.

4. Write compelling headline:

     


You ought to become a master in headline writing because this is the most powerful component of your article which is indeed a make or break factor.


According to Copyblogger, the 80/20 rule works best when writing headlines:


On average, 8 out of 10 people will read the headline copy, but only 2 out of 10 will read the rest. This is the secret to the power of your title, and why it so highly determines the effectiveness of the entire piece.”



According to Ahrefs’ research,


 keyword placement on your page correlates with your rankings, and the use of an exact-match keyword within your headline is one of the most important locations to optimize in order to improve your search rankings.

Moreover, they stated that placing your target keyword at the beginning of your title also makes a positive difference.


Perfect headline:


According to Coschedule:


 Headlines of about 55 characters long tend to earn the highest number of click-throughs.”


In terms of SEO, the headline (or title tag) will need to be around 55 characters or fewer in order to fit the entire title on a search results


5.Captivating introduction:

The introduction is very important for your writing because it defines the flow and progress of your piece. It’s mission is to attract your readers to continue reading.
