Keys to successful blogging.

Greetings bosses and welcome to my post.

Blogging has been in most of our veins for many years. Some made it beautifully through blogging while some are striving to be a successful blogger. If you're that type of person, then hang on to this post because in this post, I will be talking about:

THE KEYS TO BEING A SUCCESSFUL BLOGGER

Most of you will agree with me that the one thing that we always hear as the key to being a successful blogger is by being consistent, well, what if I tell you that consistency is a secondary key of being a successful blogger? Will you agree with me?

There are diverse factors to take into consideration when talking about successful blogging and as such, some authors thought about it very well and made success from blogging while some

"aimlessly"
go into blogging without a
"purpose."

The factors required for a successful blogging can be divided into two and these are:

  1. Primary factors

  2. Secondary factors.

1. PRIMARY FACTORS
Primary Factors here can be seen as the core attributes, drives and characteristics in which a person have in other to achieve successful blogging and these attributes includes:
  1. Purpose (why do you wanna be a blogger)

  2. Motivation (if you lose interest in blogging, which will happen most times, what is it that will motivate you towards continuing?)

  3. Aims: what do you want to achieve with blogging?

  4. Agents of socialization: are you the type that will be influenced negatively about blogging? Or are you the type that will believe in blogging no matter what?

  5. Don't think of your pay, think of your impact in the platform.

I know number 5 is very much difficult in blogging and as such, due to the little or no pay from some blogging sites, authors tend to leave the site without properly understanding the concept of that particular platform or community.

You all will agree with me that a person without a purpose of doing something will no doubt loose interest in that thing on the way. Someone who doesn't have

"motivation, aims, and good agents of socialization,"
will either get wrongfully influenced by their peers or loose interest when they get less pay from the platform.

However, an author who has these attributes and positively maintain them will no doubt be one step ahead of many authors who don't.

Hope you are enjoying the read?

2. SECONDARY FACTORS

These factors are the additional qualities an author should have and these factors are very much important just as the primary factors. They include:

  1. Determination: with the power of determination, I wanted to add it as a primary factor, but when here is motivation, aims and purpose, there is bound to be determination to achieve the desired.

  2. Self control: this implies that an author should not allow the pay they receive make them spend out of bound, but it should motivate them into doing more and growing their wallet

  3. Goal setting: an author should be able to set daily goals and be self-controlled enough to leave YouTubes and TikTok and any other distractions in other to achieve that goal

  4. Engagement with other authors in the platform: Engagement in the platform is a way of making yourself be popular in the platform which will inturn boost your reputation in platform. Reputation is very important in hive and as such, it needs to be built.

  5. Positive drive: this talks about what keeps you going, what makes you continue pushing forward irrespective of the troubles faced.

  6. Respect and Humility to other authors higher or lower than you: Humility is something I have found very much important over the years and it has helped a lot both offline and online. Your respect and humility towards other authors will help you gain trust in the platform to a good extent.

  7. Follow the rules and regulations: you should not break, bend or stab the rules in hive because there is always a consequence.

  8. Hard and smart work: work hard by achieving your goals irrespective of any drawbacks, make sure you achieve the goals for a day before going into another day.

  9. Ability to plan and evaluate progress: planning and evaluation helps to stay motivated. When you look back and see the progress of your plans, then you will know the importance of planning and as such you will be happy and motivated to continue the positive works.

  10. What works for you: this talks about the kind of post you wish to make, wether it is financial, health or art related. You should choose what type works for you and the one you will not get tired of doing.

  11. Writing style: writing style matters a lot. The way you present your post, the way you carry your audience along including the lack of plagiarism and adequate citation matters a lot and helps you be a professional.

You have successfully made it to the end of today's post, u hope it was informative and educative as well. I wish everyone success towards their process of being a successful blogger.

Thank you for reading through my post, I really appreciate. I hope to see you next time.
