2. Do not re-invent the wheel. Read media blogs and see what is "hot" on the minds of people, see which topics are sparking interest.

This is a sign that those topics are on the minds of people who read blogs! Even if it is not directly related to your niche, write a post about one of these hot topics and I guarantee that you will find a way to some how relate it to the interests of your audience.

3. Use a "family story" to create or sell an idea. You can think of many events in your family which gave you pause for thought and from which you learnt an important life lesson.

Start by stating the lesson in general terms then illustrate with a story. People prefer to hear stories over a lesson.

4. Be calm. Every idea will not be an instant hit. Think of your blog site as constructing a building, from the foundation to the roof.

A building in which your readers find value and interest. So lay your foundation carefully and make it a habit to put your readers' interest first. They will come back for more.
