Blogging Trends 2019

Blogging Trends 2019

Ok, well first off it should be of interest to anyone who has ever read a blog that nearly half of the online population reads blogs! That is an amazing number of people and it is expected that the number could actually increase in 2019.

Over half of all internet users now have a mobile device to get online, with the average users spending at least 3.5 hours online daily via that mobile device.

This has led to many industries already optimizing their website for use on mobile devices and one that has been highly successful is the gambling industry.  High-end sites now provide games that equal if not surpass those that can be played using a home computer or laptop. Excusive live casinos can be accessed together with all the bonuses and promotional offers that particular site offers.

Today convenience matters more than ever and that includes being able to source entertainment as well as being able to carry out daily tasks. Blogs must therefore also be optimized for mobile devices in order to get the traffic.

Interestingly, English remains the dominant language used in blogging with more than 70% of blogs that are published on WordPress written in English. Over 50% of the company’s worldwide use blogs as a top marketing strategy and this appears to be continuing in 2019.

A massive influence in 2018 was the Fake News and Facebook drama everyone was subjected to, and because of this 2019 is seen to be the year where bloggers will focus firmly on building up and maintaining trust with their readers.  Video blogs are expected to be vital with video expected to be behind at least 85% of search traffic in 2019.

It has also been acknowledged that many readers simply do not have the time to read marathon blog articles, preferring instead some short-form content although there is always going to be a place for the longer in-depth articles, still a favorite of Google.

The personalization of content is trending in 2019 as people want to read content that is relevant to them and that offers solutions or meets their needs in some other way. Of course, you can’t address your blog to just one person but if you have an idea of who your target audience is going to be and more importantly what that target audience is interested in then your content will automatically begin to be more relevant, even before you get any feedback.

Remember when blogging that interactivity increases engagement. Running an interactive blog could mean that you include special features like surveys, quizzes, and maybe infographics. It is all about engaging with your audience and keeping them coming back as the relationship develops.

Everything is connected and making sure that your blog is connected to your social accounts and vice versa is important. Readers will want to be able to move freely between them so making sure that everything is up-to-date and that the content is appropriate is essential. A blogger does not have to have a massive following what they do need is to be able to connect with those that follow them, a facebook

Revamp Your Website For 2019

How To Revamp Your Website For 2019

If your website is starting to look dated as we enter a new year, there are many ways that you can improve and overhaul your website’s design, accessibility, and visuals for 2019. By using these, your website can start to reach its potential, including an increase in internet traffic and potential buyers.

Increase Customer Support

Firstly, your support for your customers should be evident from your homepage; it also needs to be re-established on every page thereafter to encourage customers that you will meet their needs while they are using your services. You can do this by installing an online chat service or chat robot to answer FAQs and real-time questions, building a one-to-one rapport with your customers and showing exemplary customer service.

Additionally, you can also provide evidence of your loyalty and service through testimonials, which should be placed in an apparent position on your website, such as the top of the homepage. These guides will show customers that your business is a reliable service for everyone that focuses on their customer’s needs.

Feature Social Media

Step into the modern era by linking your social media pages such as Facebook and Twitter to your webpage, or you can even attach a live feed which will show customers your latest updates. This is relatively simple to do and will allow customers to interact with your service and encourage them to check your regular updates. Doing this will increase customer engagement and improve the traffic to your site by delivering the latest news straight to their mobiles.

Use a Marketing Agency

Employing a marketing agency to help your business to grow is the next big step to increasing your business prowess and can be useful regarding improving your website traffic, conducting research and optimizing your search results.

Companies like Eventige can help to design your marketing strategies and promotions to help advertise your brand and utilize your website to provide the best customer experience. Using marketing agencies like these will help ease the complications of revamping your marketing strategy yourself, whether this is offline or digitally.

Improve Visuals and Layout

Creating the best visuals and a clean and simple layout will help to provide the best user experience for your customers, making your web pages easy to navigate and understand. The right images can also shape the look of your brand for customers and show your company’s message, such as bright colors and jaunty text. This will help your site to grab the attention of customers and keep them engaged as they scroll through multiple pages. Additionally, if your site is complicated and messy, it will be confusing for users and they are more than likely to stop browsing.

To grab the attention of your customers and provide a bright and functional website that can improve your website traffic, you should be aware of your user’s needs and what they value from a website. Once you begin to do this, your website will be cleaner and more accessible to the general public, and this is key in helping you to grow your business.

Simple Ways to Improve Your Problem Solving Skills

Ways to Improve Your Problem Solving Skills

There are people in the world who seem to have no issues with solving problems. Any problem that comes their way they can look at it and come up with a solution effortlessly. For many others, finding themselves faced with a problem can be a catastrophe. If you happen to be one of them, don’t despair. It is possible to significantly improve your abilities in this area. Many of the ideas that follow you’ll laugh at. However, give them a try because they are designed to help you devise more strategic ways of thinking and train your brain to engage more.

Get a Good Night’ Sleep

Your body goes through various sleeping and awake states, but it is Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep which directly enhances the creative processing in the brain. It stimulates associative networks and allows the brain to make new and useful associations. There are various strategies you can try to help you get a better night’s sleep.

Give Your Brain a Workout

Your brain requires exercise just as much as the rest of your body. How do you do that? By playing games which require mental agility such as chess, Sudoku, Rubik’s Cube or other brain-boosting games. An Escape Room is another way in which you can exercise your problem-solving skills, by cracking codes, solving puzzles and following clues to help you escape your adventure of choice.

Keep an Idea Journal

This is somewhere you can quickly record important thoughts, personal experiences and explore ideas. It is especially effective if you keep it with you at all times. Rather than having all your thoughts rattling around in your head, sorting them on paper will help you to work out problems. This is because you’ll be viewing them objectively.

Yoga

Improve Your Problem Solving Skills using yoga

This is a form of exercise that combines body awareness, breathing, and meditation. These three features have been shown to significantly increase cognitive test scores. Other studies have shown improvements in reaction times, more accuracy and increased attention. You can practice it at home, with the help of an app, or look for yoga classes in your neighborhood.

Use Mind Maps

Using mind maps allows you to create a visual snapshot of a problem and its possible solutions. It also focuses the mind, stimulates the brain, increases its capacity for creative thinking and generates more ideas. Your problem is drawn as the central idea of your Mind Map, with main branches for all the reasons for the problem. Sub-branches are used to explore further details.

A couple more ideas to inspire you to include dancing your heart out. Dancing has a positive impact on neural processing. It is thought it can help to develop new neural pathways to go around dopamine-depleted blockages in the brain. Work out to some tunes is another idea work mentioning. Studies have shown that listening to music when working out stimulates and increases cognitive arousal and helps organize cognitive output. There are plenty more things you can try. There are even problem-solving workshops and courses for those of you who are really serious about improving this skill.

Moving from Hobby Blogger to Career Blogger A Guide

Moving from Hobby Blogger to Career Blogger: A Guide

There’s no denying that blogging is incredibly popular, and while many people dream of becoming a full-time blogger, working from wherever they wish, it’s not an easy career move. Whether you are currently a professional writer looking for a new challenge, or you blog on the side of your current job role, deciding to begin your own journey is scary and difficult. But, it’s not impossible. With the correct preparation and following a number of steps, you can move from blogging as a hobby to blogging as a career.

Start-up Capital

While you may be able to begin your budding blogging career from the comfort of your own home, there are a variety of things you need to get you started on the right foot, and this requires capital. For example, you may currently have a blogging platform, but does it portray the professional image you want? If not, you may need to invest in expert web design and development to create the perfect website. Start-up capital for a blogging career may not be as much as it would be for an eCommerce business, but there will be a certain amount you will need, and whether you choose to approach a family member or a bank for a loan, this is something you will need before you begin.

However, if you currently have a bad credit score, it can be difficult to secure investment, even if the investment you are seeking is small. If you are unsure of your credit score, and you are hoping to secure financial help, it’s worthwhile to use a free credit score checker, like the one available through Credit Sesame. Knowledge is power, so by being prepared and armed with the information you need, you have a better chance of receiving a loan to get you started.

Creating Your Website

As mentioned above, to become a professional, you need to look professional, and your website is the first port of call. You may currently use a blogging platform such as WordPress, but your very own website is where you can truly show off your creative skills and your writing portfolio. Whatever type of blogging professionally you aspire to be, whether it’s lifestyle, tech, or business, your website is where you can show off your expertise and create something memorable. Of course, you can use WordPress and create your custom domain name and site address, but this is for a fee of $99 per year. There is a variety of hosting websites where you can source a unique domain name and avoid generic web templates. By working with a professional website designer and developer in particular, you can ensure your website reflects the brand and persona you wish to reveal to the world.

Developing Your Brand

A brand is what will be your unique selling point when you are selling yourself as a blogger. Your brand is something you want people to remember; it needs to draw them in and keep them interested in what you have to offer. It’s your online, professional identity, and as such, it needs careful development and consideration. Your brand encompasses a range of features, which include the colors you use, your logo, your name, and essentially for the current consumer’s, your ethos. Your brand will form the basis of your blog tone of voice, it will create trust between you and your audience, and it provides a face and a personality to who you are. To create your brand identity, you need first to know your audience and who you are hoping to attract. For example, if you want young moms to visit your blog, having a black and red color scheme may be off-putting. Likewise, if you are creating a gaming blog for millennial males, pink hearts and flowers may not evoke the response you want.

Defining Your Niche

Much like your branding, your niche is where you are going to truly make your mark, so it stands to reason that this isn’t a decision to make quickly or take lightly. After all, if you begin your blogging career writing about the latest news in the tech industry, but decide you instead want to talk about interior design, you may need to overhaul your website and your branding. How to define your niche can be relatively simple. What are you truly passionate about? What gets you up in the morning, and makes you happy? If you choose a niche which doesn’t ignite a spark within, it’s all-too-easy to lose the motivation and determination to create award-winning content. While one blogging niche may appear to generate more revenue, this isn’t the best way to decide what to focus your efforts on. Just because blogs which focus analytical research on the latest stocks and trades is bringing in $1,000’s a month, doesn’t mean this is where you should place all your effort, especially if you know nothing about the industry! If you love reading and books, choose a book review blog, despite how much revenue you expect to make. After all, blogging isn’t a get rich quick scheme. It requires dedicated time, effort, and sometimes money to get it off the ground and bringing in a healthy profit.

Growing Your Audience

How will your blog make any money if no one is visiting it? It’s a common query, and it’s one which needs addressing. By growing your audience, and continuing to expand, you can start to generate a healthy revenue, making this decision the best one you made. But first, you need to attract the audience. How you do this will depend on a number of factors, one being who your target audience is. You need to undertake specific market research to define who you want to share your content with, and who you want visiting your site. It’s similar to defining your niche, and it will stand you in good stead to do it earlier on in the development process. Where you reach your audience will also be determined by this. For example, are they young moms? If so, Facebook may be the best platform to market yourself on. Are they business professionals? LinkedIn is the way forward if yes.

know your wordpress theme safe

How to Know If Your WordPress Theme is Safe

Hackers have been looking for weaknesses to exploit in their effort to infect websites and users’ computers with malware. Hackers have likewise been exploiting WordPress themes offered to bloggers who unknowingly install plugins and code on their websites. Here is advice on how to know if your WordPress theme is safe.

Use Reputable Websites

One of the simplest solutions is relying on websites that test and verify the quality of WordPress themes to find WordPress themes for your own website. There are a few free options on these websites, so you don’t have to trade off cost for quality, or in this case, safety. Note that you’ll want to do an internet search on the quality of the “reputable” website, since they may virus scan the themes for malware but let badly coded products be uploaded as safe.

Manually Review the Theme Files

If you’re looking at the WordPress theme’s associated files, you may be able to see obvious added, malicious files. You could find backlinks to a malicious website when you review the footer.php file or style.css file. However, this isn’t something most bloggers and hobby website admins have the training to do, though someone who has completed an online master of science in information security from Norwich University would.


Virus Scan It

You can run a virus scan of downloads as a check for malicious code. Do this after you’ve downloaded the zip file but before you open it. You can also use reputable antivirus websites to scan the zip file of the WordPress theme. Another option is using the Theme Authenticity Checker to scan the theme for the unwanted code. This is the last resort, though, since you have to upload the theme to your website before you can run the check – and now you have to clean up the website or your system if it did contain malicious code.

If you’ve already installed the WordPress theme and you’re unsure of its safety, use the Google Safe Browsing diagnostic followed by your website name to let them virus scan it. The side benefit of this process is that it can tell the difference between malicious code and merely bad code that causes problems in its own right. Norwich University Online offers training in how to check existing websites and files for malicious code as well as how to debug sites.

A better choice is ThemeCheck; this service can scan for both IT security concerns and bad code. Another benefit of this site is that you can search for the WordPress theme by name and see if others have reported security concerns about it. Security can be used to scan a WordPress theme zip file as well as a website that already has the theme installed on it.

The first step would be to use reputable websites that vet themes as the source of the WordPress themes for your website. Another option is searching the internet to look for complaints about the security of the theme. Manually reviewing the theme file may reveal an obvious hack. Scanning it or using a third-party service to scan it for malicious code is the safer choice.
