Get our step-by-step New-Member Onboarding Plan that will help

how to write a chamber blog imageThere are many ways to improve blog traffic and increase followers. But, it doesn’t have to be an overwhelming project. Begin your journey from good to great chamber blogging with just a few techniques. Start with the layout:

Be Organized and Concise

  • Your blog layout should be clear and skimmable. Data show that internet readers love numbers, lists, worsts, urgency, and promises.
  • Get to the point—set post-length parameters. Keeping it short improves readability and keeps the reader’s attention. 300-500 maximum word count is a good goal.
  • Break up text and emphasize important sections with bold type, bullets, and numbered lists.
  • A large percentage of visitors will simply click away from text-heavy posts with little white space and no headings.

 Use Visuals

  • A picture is worth a thousand words, so leverage images on your blog
  • Include high-quality, professional-looking, and engaging images
  • Images should fulfill the promise of headline and complement the topic
  • Consider using video, graphs, and slideshares

Share and Network

  • Include social sharing buttons
  • Provide a prominent subscribe option
  • Create a Call-To-Action (download, sign up for mailing list, comment, etc.)
  • Promote on Social Media
