People have been asking questions like this for many years, how do you make your own song hit the charts? How do you attract more followers for your YouTube channel? Think about your own personal blog. What is your objective when you post a blog? Is it to attract as much attention as possible to every post? Is it to answer questions that people may have and provide the best answer? Or do you just post about how you are feeling and the activities you have participated in?

What is the key to success?

Making your blog posts go viral is not the easiest thing in the world. There is no book with instructions and no secret recipe to make everyone want to read them. For the small percentage of bloggers who do manage to make their blogs 'go viral,' the answer is to work your hardest and keep on trying. There are, however, many different things you can do to attract a reader's attention and increase your chances of it being read.

A blog can mean everything to you, it's a way of expressing yourself and can attract a lot of attention. Your main problem is that if no one can find your post then it is only useful to you, no one else. The only way you are guaranteed readers is to write popular content that includes great detail that can change someone's life. It is all about putting your blogs out into the world and making a connection with readers.

First things first:

Before you post your blog, think of what you are going to name it. Type your main topics into the Google keywords tool and then choose your title from the most popular search terms. Therefore when readers type in the keywords, your blog will be one of the first to come up. Try to think of a title that will stand out from all the rest. Adding pictures also helps to attract readers as it makes the post carry more weight. Always proof read your post to check for those vital errors. Grammar and spelling mistakes often put people off reading more.

Get it out there:

After you have posted your blog, post again to popular blog websites such as Yahoo Buzz, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube (if your blog is a video). Link blogs to past posts to attract more attention and more viewings on your profile. Add your signature to the end of the blog, so that if the reader enjoys your post they can search for you later to read other posts. Other bloggers may also mention you in their posts if they are related to each other.

You do not have to take these steps every time you post, but the more you post the blog the more people will see it. Adding pictures and quotes to your blogs also means they will show up on search engines when potential readers type in your keywords.
