You’re Talking BUT Who’s Listening?
This website is my voice and I have spoken a lot of things through it. This article is the 177th and that should be substantive. Its 24 hours alive and updated several times a month but who exactly is listening to what I have to say here? Do any webmasters and bloggers bother themselves to know who is listening to what they have to say in their posts? Today I’m thankful that you are listening as you read through this post but it is what you want to read?
Many of us, bloggers, do this business of posting articles just to make money. Listen to what I say in this post “The African Online Money Maker that Works for Me” and you’ll see that. I do want to make money but it is not my priority and it shouldn’t at any rate. We tend to have a high sales pitch to people that do visit our websites. Is it wrong? I don’t know but I think our target should be writing for people to learn and not to buy or follow our affiliate links. I have observed the following to be major things that make visitors never want to listen to us blogger.
- We tend to tell the same old story other bloggers have already told.
- We lack focused content.
- Visitors don’t get the message of ‘what’s in it for me’ early enough.
- Our websites tend to download very slow.
- Our websites often become complicated to browse and navigate.
- The website has no identity with the owner.
- Our English language often gets deep if not nuts.
- We tend to tell a lie, particularly on internet based success.
- Lack of consistency kills our momentum.
- Confused / meaningless content.
- Typo errors.
The list goes on and on but I picked these 10 from what I have observed over the years. You’ll have done yourself a favor avoiding such mistakes. I try, but only face challenges when dealing with the technical part such as the slow downloading of my website. I still have to figure out how I can solve this problem.
