Today, the web is dominated by many blog writers from all over the world, sharing their expertise and passion to the rest of the planet. Just as you would write in your journal or diary, blog writing is more like making your ideas, thoughts, and opinions known globally by posting your content online.
Creating content is easy, anyone can do it. The challenge here is that not everyone knows the elements and features of a compelling blog that will make readers and visitors come back for more. Joining the growing band of blog writers can be overwhelming at first, but once you get to know how it is done, you will able to do so in no time.
There is a vast range of topics you can create content with. You should focus on what you are passionate about. Writing on topics that you are not interested in will only make you feel stuck and eventually, you’ll just come up with a boring content that will only shoo away visitors. Likewise, taking too much ideas all at the same time will confuse your readers and chances are your blog writing project will end up as a big flop.
When you write, you should bear in mind that you want to have your blog read by many. You are not supposed to be contented with simply posting your ideas or opinions the way you like it. The goal here is to gain readership and make yourself known. People want to know something, so give them what they want based on your knowledge about a topic, but with a personal touch. Too much formality can also make the readers feel intimidated in some way. You want to serve your visitors, it’s not the other way around.

And what are keywords? Keywords are inserted within your content for SEO usage. This is your way to become “searchable” on the net and get high rankings when people look for content related to your blog. This is a good way to promote your blog. Remember, plagiarism is a big no-no.
If you already know what it takes to be a blog writer and you want to facilitate a blog writing tutorial, then you would to have to trace back and sort out the things that are needed in order to create a convincing blog content. You can organize everything into a step-by-step instructional material with visual presentation to make it more comprehensible and engaging.
Assume that your tutorial aims to teach even young blogger wannabes. Different individuals have different levels of grasping instructions. Some can quickly get what is told while others may take time to let those guidelines sink in. So, put yourself into their shoes. Try to find the middle point of your tutorial to make it balanced.

Next, you should note in the tutorial that the design of the blog gives an impact to its visitors. The home page should be eye-catching and interesting that will make visitors feel welcome. The colours can either be appealing or repulsive. The colours should match the theme of the blog. The tutorial should also contain examples of popular blog sites to demonstrate the characteristics of a good blog. In addition, visitors would want to know who is behind the blog, therefore the tutorial should also stress the importance of the “About Me” page, which should be filled with interesting things about the blogger to make it shine. This adds credibility as well.
Lastly, show in the tutorial that regularly posting blog content is a good practice. It means that the blog site is always updated and the blogger has much to share about. Inserting an image to the blog post draws more attention. There are websites that offer free digital images. It should be noted that images that are added should be given proper credit. Make readers feel engaged by inviting them to post their comments and answer their questions if they have any. Just beware of spammers.
Ideally, you should be a blogger first before you can facilitate a blog writing tutorial.
