Boost social presence by setting up a blog

A blog is essential for tying your social activities together

Blogs are seen by some as outdated, but they could not be more wrong. Consider what social networks do and how they work, and you will soon see that they are merely conduits for people to communicate on. A blog is yours alone and can be used in any way you like. From the design to the text to the way you bring all of your social elements together, it is a cost-effective way to build a presence and to truly show what you are capable of. Whether you create podcasts, produce fine art or anything else, a blog can be anything you want it to be and it is exceptionally easy to link to Twitter and Facebook accounts and to even host podcasts and images that you have produced. Many free web hosting options are available, but for a small monthly or yearly cost, you can take advantage of some truly stunning web software and design templates.

Steps to go:- 


1. Choose a provider


Research your blog host. Check online reviews and carefully consider your limitations. If you know you will struggle to design a site, look for hosts who offer professionally-designed templates and don’t choose on price alone.

2. A companion app



Try to choose a host who offers an Android app that is capable of letting you create blog posts that look the same as when created on a desktop. You will want to add images and even videos to offer a rich reading experience.

3. Write posts anywhere

You will now be able to create blog content whenever the mood strikes or when an interesting event occurs. Your Android device will let you dictate text and also capture photos and videos when mobile. It’s perfect for blogging at any time.

4. Make your posts social



The option to automatically add a social link to your latest blog post will either be available within the blogging software or through a freely available add-on. This will help you to quickly gain traffic which is consistent and repeating.

5. Quality in every post


Take time over every single blog post you publish. To gain readers who become loyal, and who are then more likely to follow you on social networks and listen to your podcasts, you will need to always produce quality content.
