Hello friends, I have brought a very good article for you today, in which I will tell you what a blogger does when he starts his blog. And with this, today I will tell you 12 important mistakes of blogger, which blogger fails in life. Because at that time there is no one to explain to him what is right and wrong for his life. Whatever he does, he feels right but he fails in the same things further. That is why I have brought this article for you that you should never make this mistake if you are new to the blogging field.

Let me tell you one more thing, never use the field of blogging to earn money directly because you have to focus on your article first and then think of earning money. This is why I am saying that many people start blogging only to earn money, but they do not get any results, then they stop writing blog posts. But the real purpose of blogging is to share knowledge with everyone.

Also, let me tell you that if you have good knowledge in the enclosure of something and want to share that knowledge with others, then come to the blogging field. Apart from this, if you have no knowledge and you are just coming to earn money, then I will tell you that the blogging field is not for you. Because blogging doesn’t just mean making money. You have to work a lot in blogging after that you can earn from it.

Now let me tell you that the 12 biggest mistakes of bloggers are what they often do at the beginning of the blogging field.

Many people do that they have 20–25 ideas and many people have less than this. Now those people think that they can write 20–25 posts very well, so a new blog should be made. But you guys should never make such a mistake because you will write 20–25 posts very well but after that, you will know that all the ideas are over and nothing new is coming.

Because of this, your blogging career will start to end slowly. Because your blogging schedule will not be good. The article which you used to publish in 2–3 days, now you will start publishing in 5 days. Many more such problems will start. So that’s why you always start your blog on the topic in which you are most interested. And you feel that you can publish articles on that topic for a lifetime.

For example, if you know good in technology, make your blog on it or if you can explain well on beauty, then make your blog on it. Explain which you are more interested in. But do not open any blog with the desire to earn money, if you start a blog with the greed of money, then your ideas will be finished in a few days and your blogging career may also end.

Always keep in mind that blogging does not mean that you have created a blog and the views will start coming after publishing the post. If you want to bring traffic to your blog, then you will have to do a good search engine optimization of your blog. It is also called SEO.

Because if we also, start a YouTube channel, then we have to do SEO for it first, but in Blogger SEO too much has to be done. Because if your post will not rank in Google and your post will not reach the users, then how will they read your post.

Therefore, you should always SEO your blog properly, due to which those posts can rank in Google. If you do not know how to do SEO, then tell me in the comment, I will write the next article on this topic. And if you know SEO, there is nothing to worry about, you should always do SEO for your blog.

This is also a very important point and most of the new bloggers make this mistake. So their mistake is that they put any theme on their blog, but should not do it at all. Always you have to apply the theme according to the topic because many people work that their website is related to tech and they put up the theme health website.

So you don’t have to make such a mistake at all. And always before going to the theme, go to the demo and see its opening time. And you always have to apply the fastest theme which will increase your chances of success in blogging.

And if you can invest money, then buy a premium theme or else you can apply a free theme. But always keep the theme matching the blog’s niche.

Many people still do not share a single post or article of them on social media because they think that doing so may cause trouble to their blog and their Adsense will not be approved in the future. So let me tell you that you should share your posts on social media because this will give your blog a quality backlink as well, if social media users have to read your post, then they will come directly from your social media post to your blog and will read.

And if possible, you can also apply social media icons to your theme as it will be that if someone likes your post and that person wants to share your post to another person then they will Click on the social media icon and will send it to another. So always remember that you have to put your articles on social media too.

Whenever you write an article, you publish it and people read it and they immediately leave your blog after reading it. But you should never do such a mistake. You must do interlinking in your post. You should put a link to your other post inside your article, due to which the viewer will not leave your blog and this will also increase the views on your other post and will also increase the authority of that post.

And if you want, you can also put popular posts of your website in the sidebar, which will give the viewer an attraction and he will definitely want to read your other post as well. By doing this thing, the viewer starts liking your website and if you do interlinking, then there will be a lot of benefits for your blog.

When any new man always comes in the field of blogging, then he cannot choose the topic of his blog correctly. His blog is from Tech and he keeps giving health-related information in his blog. But never make such a mistake. If your blog is for information about Tech, then you should write Tech articles on it. Never write health or news information.

I have seen many blogs on Google, in which the information of all the topics stays together. But do not do such experiments at all. This can cause a lot of damage to your blog after some time. And if you do this, your blog will never be able to rank. That’s why you always focus on one topic and keep working on it.

Now, what do you do that you have created a blog, but you start writing articles on it very little. You think that after writing 300–500-word article, your article will rank on Google, but let me tell you that this is your biggest wrong thinking.

Always write your article of minimum 1000 words. Because of the depth with which you write the article increases the chances of your article getting ranked. And always write your article point to point.

Now let me tell you what happens by writing a big article. So any reader will come to your blog and if they see your post, then they will love that you have written the article correctly and have written it in full detail. And his trust will increase on your blog. Also, the bounce rate of your blog will be less. So if you can, then write an article of 1000 words or more.

Now let’s talk about the image, even today there are many bloggers who use the image very little in their article. But if you are new to the field of blogging, then I would like to tell you that you should use images equally. But I also do not say that the post should have more image than the word. Keep the image in a limit too.

For example, if you have a 1000 word post, then you can use at least 7–8 images. Placing images in posts does not make your post look boring to the viewers. Also, the reader likes to see the image while reading your article and many things can be understood by the reader seeing the image.

And if possible, use copyright-free images so that there will be no risk to your Adsense. If you know Photoshop then you can create an image and use it inside your post.

Let me tell you that thousands of new blogs are being made every day. And it takes at least 3 to 4 weeks for the new website to enter the search engine. And the new blogger makes the mistake that his blog is new but he starts working on high competition keywords. But after a while neither his blog ranks nor traffic comes to his blog. And then they demotivate and stop blogging.

So I would like to tell you that if you are a new blogger, then you just pay attention to the low competition keywords, which has a higher search volume. This will mean that your site will be indexed in Google quickly and will start to rank in Google.

Also, if you want me to find low competition keywords for you, then tell me in the comment. Because if you work on high competition keywords, then there are already big websites working on it. So you should only work on the low competition keyword.

Nowadays, many people are new to the field of blogging and some days they do not see traffic on their website, then they quit blogging. That’s why I want to tell you that if you want to do blogging then think about doing it for a lifetime.

Because blogging is never done for some time. And I want to tell you that it never happens that you have created a blog today and tomorrow traffic will start coming on your blog. You will have to write quality posts to get traffic to your blog and also have patience. If you do not have patience, you will not be able to blogging.

When most bloggers start blogging, they like to work with a subdomain. Because they don’t want to spend money on buying domains. They do not believe in themselves whether their posts will rank on Google or not. So those people think that initially, it would be better to work with Subdomain and buy the domain when the money comes.

But let me tell you that if you want to blogging, then you buy the domain first because after buying the domain your posts will be ranked quickly and the subdomain will no longer rank in Google.

And always believe in yourself that your site will rank soon. And if you do not buy the domain, you will not be able to rank your website on Google.

Many bloggers work to download the cracked version of any premium theme and put it on their site. But they do not know that they are doing very wrong things and this can also waste their money. Now how the money will be wasted, then the hosting they have bought completely loses.

When those people put up a cracked theme, they give their servers a handover to others. Because when someone gives you a cracked theme, they put some codes in that theme and when you put that theme on your website, you have soaked your website to another person.

So I would like to say to you that if anyone is offering a cracked version of the premium theme for free, then don’t buy it at all. It is better that you use free themes. And if you can invest more money then you buy a premium theme. But never use a cracked version. Because the theme of the cracked version is the equivalent of poison in food.
