Yesterday I read a very useful article on problogger that gives you some tips for writing posts that will catch on with your users. I like it because it is simple, straightforward and really helps you realize what your blog is all about. It isn’t relevant to me as I have decided to put all my efforts in WP design work, but I suggest you give it a try:

1. Write something useful – my favourite
   
2. Write something unique
3. Write something newsworthy
4. Write something first
5. Write something that makes those who read it smarter
6. Write something controversial
7. Write something insightful
8. Write something that taps into a fear people have
9. Write something that helps people achieve
10. Write something that produces a response
11. Write something that gives a sense of belonging
12. Write something passionately
13. Write something that interprets or translates news for people
14. Write something inspirational
15. Write something that tells a story
16. Write something that solves a problem
17. Write something that gets a laugh
18. Write something that saves people time or money
19. Write something opinionated
20. Write something that is a resource
21. Write something about something ‘cool‘

It really is worth trying so don’t stop just by reading, take action and try it, I’m sure it will help your blog in many ways. But as always this isn’t just a magic pill for headaches of your blog as Bruce Simmons describes in a comment to Darren’s post:

If you don’t have a foothold in the SEO world, you are spinning your wheels.
