WHAT YOU SHOULD INCLUDE IN EVERY BLOG POST

Hello Everyone,

When I decided to start a blog, I told myself to just focus on the launching part and figure out the rest later on. Little did I know what was ahead of me, I never thought that writing one blog post had so much more entailed than just hitting publish. A blog post has much more entailed than just typing down words and sharing it to your readers, which I did learn along the way after making my share of many mistakes. So what should a blog post have? Every blog post requires certain properties for it to make a good post and here are some points on what you should include in every blog post.

Disclaimer: I am not saying that these are the only things you should include in every blog post because I know there are lots more out there and that we learn as we go. My posts are not perfect and I am just sharing what has worked for me and how I use them in my blog posts.

What makes a good blog post?

  • Should have images
  • Should be easy to read
  • Have good SEO
  • Good grammar
  • Have headings
  • Gets you more traffic

Now that you know what a good blog post is let’s get on with it and see what to include in every blog post.

10 NATURAL HAIR TIPS FOR HEALTHY HAIR

Let’s talk about hair

Everyone wishes for long, silky, shiny hair but with natural hair, I aim mostly for health. I admit that I never really cared about taking care of my hair since I was used to braiding it all year round and not thinking much about it but after sometime, my hair texture changed and it became thin, brittle, full of split ends and just looked a mess until I decided to start taking care of it the right way and what suits me. These are 10 natural hair tips for healthy hair that have helped me with my 4c hair and still try to follow most of the time.

When it comes to natural hair, don’t lie to yourself and think that just because another person has natural hair, that you both have the same and that you should follow the same regimen, because everyone’s hair type is different and accepts different products and maintenance.

Hi,

Happy new week everyone, I hope you all had a great weekend and also enjoyed the rain that came with it, that is if you were indoors. Anyway today I am back with a skincare post, in my skincare products I want to try out this year post, I told you about my spring allergy and how it flares up and also what I wanted to do to deal with it.
