p>Here I will list some of the mistakes good blogs make. When I say a good blog, I mean, it has everything that is necessary to make it a success (nice design, well written content, etc )but it fails in one important part of the execution. With these 3 top tips , you soon will be seeing visitors return to your blog, and who knows, they might even start to link to your blog on their blogroll.
Caring about Comments
Allowing comments and nurturing comments, is something that can easily be done and will give you many times the return back. First of all, on your blog, you should enable comments on your posts. Getting feedback and hearing what your visitors want to read is invaluable. This first step is pretty easy, but the second one takes a bit more time. When you have new comment, it is important to acknowledge it, either reply and thank them for taking the time to comment, or send them a personal email asking them if there is any topics you should write about. Building up a relationship with your readers will make sure that they will return and possibly spread the word about your new blog. So treat every comment as sacred.
Easy Access to Read
It may sound like a simple message, but people should not be hindered too much by trying to read your blog post. Try and keep it short and to the point. Veering off topic will only serve to annoy your readers. Also offer them an easily seen link to your RSS feed. I would recommend to use FeedBurner.com to syndicate your RSS feed, as it offers extra add-ons like an email notification to your readers when you have written a new post.
