\"Twitter<\/a>Recently, I wrote a post on blogging for authors for Friesen Press<\/a>, a self-publishing company that educates authors to get the best book they can out into the world. (They don’t pay me to say that!)<\/p>\n

We met on Twitter<\/a> (love Twitter<\/a>!)…<\/p>\n

Tak and I recently met at a talk I gave on risk and book marketing. Not your ordinary kind of talk but a\u00a0“talk” I gave on Twitter at #bookmarketingchat\u00a0<\/a>recently one Thursday afternoon.<\/p>\n

Tak asked me to write about blogging. He said, “You have a great community built around your blog, and I think authors would be really interested in the back story\/lessons learned\/tips that you could share.”<\/p>\n

Thanks Tak! I’m thrilled to share a bit about my blogging story and several key tips to my blogging success.<\/p>\n

Today I have over 200 blog subscribers, over 800 newsletter subscribers, over 1,100 hits on my blog per month. [Editor’s note, updated 2017: Now it’s over 2,500 hits per month; 425 blog subscribers; 2400 newsletter subscribers.]<\/p>\n

I love blogging, and I think it’s a great way to get sell books and get my mission known so that I can help even more people.<\/p>\n

While my numbers may be modest to some people, to me this is pretty\u00a0outstanding because a few years ago I didn’t really want to be blogging. I just didn’t know what to blog about. I didn’t see the point, and it seemed like a lot of work. I did plug away at it\u00a0sporadically, but with no commitment, direction or focus.<\/p>\n

Sound familiar?<\/p>\n

And then something happened. I partnered with a friend, marketing expert, Cheryl Liquori, and we created the Breakfast Blogging Club, where we brought together local professionals for a morning of breakfast, gabbing — of course — and a workshop on the marketing end of blogging. And then, the writing part, which I led.<\/p>\n

Over the course of a year and half of our collaboration, Cheryl’s marketing know-how seeped into me, and my writing mojo jumped over to her. Pretty cool! And I learned a lot about the importance of blogging.<\/p>\n

You can get our free report on\u00a0Your Quick Start Guide to Writing Your Blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The biggest thing I learned is that people appreciate what you may take for granted: your knowledge, expertise and passion.<\/p>\n

For example, for many years it has been easy for me to sit down and
\nwrite for 15-20 minutes. I discovered through teaching our workshops
\nthat this ability for many people wasn’t as natural as it was to me. But it can be learned! You can write easily 500-600 words in that\u00a0length of time.\u00a0In fact, I wrote a post about that: 15 Minutes Can Change Your Life<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I also learned the importance of keywords and catchy headlines.<\/p>\n

Use both to attract your target audience. Use words they would use.<\/p>\n

Among other things, numbers work great in headlines. So do questions, strong action verbs, adjectives like “success,” and controversial statements.<\/p>\n

Lastly, the action I\u2019ve taken that has done the most for my confidence\u00a0as a blogger has been to post to my blog every day. Yep! I said every\u00a0day. The content isn’t always my own, but I curate it and it is
\naligned with my mission to help authors.<\/p>\n

Blogging daily has served several purposes.<\/h4>\n

1) It’s helped me generate great content because I’m constantly\u00a0exercising my curiosity and my reach for new material.<\/p>\n

2) My site visitors have quadrupled! Okay, that’s a bit of an ego\u00a0thing… but it’s still cool! And has lead to the third and most\u00a0important point.<\/p>\n

3) My community has grown; I’m reaching more people, helping more\u00a0people, connecting with more people. How cool is that!<\/p>\n

Here’s a big disclaimer<\/h3>\n

I blog with my professional “I help writers get their books done and into the hands of their readers” hat on. And then I released a novel earlier this year, and I am now\u00a0putting all my tools to the test as a fiction author blogging. The experiment is unfolding at the newborn author site here: author.bethbarany.com<\/a>. [Editor’s Note: As of 2017, my author blog has grown considerably. I have on average about 500 site visitors per month, though that swings much higher when I go giveaways.]<\/p>\n

Bonus tip:<\/strong> Traction really starts to build after 20 posts. For my author blog, I’ll be there with by the beginning of September. [Editor’s Note: As of 2017, I’ve posted 266 posts, not all by me.]<\/p>\n

As I have with the Writer’s Fun Zone, I trust that I will build a large audience on my author blog, too. And I will do it by blogging often, mostly daily, using the keywords and headlines of the words of my readers, and playing with it.<\/p>\n

Another bonus tip I’ll leave with you is: Experiment! Play! <\/strong><\/p>\n

We often don’t know what works until we try it. Be okay with things “not working.” Be okay with getting feedback from the universe.<\/p>\n

Be okay with being seen, and being known, and shining your light for us all to see, to appreciate and to benefit from.<\/p>\n

If there’s one thing I’ve realized in all this blogging, novel writing, and sharing my expertise with others is that Each of Us Counts<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

So stand up and be heard!<\/p>\n

The blog is the hub of your social media marketing. It is a powerful
\ntool. Use it!<\/p>\n
