Here’s a checklist that I created for myself on things to do and things to check for before hitting the “publish” button. I’m sharing it with you in the hopes that you’ll find this Blogger’s Checklist useful.
- Write something useful that provides value and will enhance my readers’ life.
- Write something unique.
- Add an interesting image.
- Don’t tell them what to do, tell them how to do it.
- Is my title catchy?
- Does the first paragraph catch my readers’ attention?
- Check spelling.
- Check grammar.
- Make sure it’s concise. Does anything need to be cut out?
- Did I use headers and formatting to make the post easy to scan (bold, CAPITALS, italics, underlining) to emphasize points?
- Have I left enough white space to give my readers a visual break?
- Do any paragraphs need to be shortened?
- Have I written on this topic before and can I link to it?
- Can I link to any other blogs that have written about this (give my readers added value and create goodwill with other bloggers).
- Did I include categories?
- Have I credited sources of quotes and inspiration?
- Are there any facts that I need to check?
- Did I ask my readers a question at the end of the post? Did I invite them to join in the conversation?
- What keywords will people search Google for on this topic? Have I optimized the post for those words?
- Did I check all the links to make sure that they work?
- Did I add my name at the end of the post?
- Did I read the whole post through to make sure it reads well from beginning to end?
- What keywords am I targeting?
