Most Bloggers Forget This Simple Rule. Do You? Posted: 30 Nov 2010 04:58 AM PST When I wrote “most bloggers” in the title, I was including myself. In fact I forget this rule 80% of the time probably. Want to know what rule I am taking about? It is this one: Include one image on each blog post you publish. This rule is important for a couple of reasons. First of all adding images to your blog posts will help you capture the attention of distracted readers and encourage them to read your post. Second, having images around will improve the design of your blog and make it more appealing. Third, images can be a good source of search engine traffic, especially every post you publish has one (i.e., over time the combined traffic you’ll get for your images will add up). So why do most bloggers forget this simple rule? Probably because they get lazy over time. That is my case at least. The solution is to force yourself to add those images initially, until you develop the habit. Check out this post if you don’t know where to find images for your blog. I mention one paid and two free sources there, so money is not an excuse. Original Post: Most Bloggers Forget This Simple Rule. Do You?
