Types of Blog Posts

Whatever blog style you decide to use make sure that it is informative and engaging enough so that your readers return to your website. Experiment with every type of blog style so you can learn what your viewers are interested in seeing.

Book Club

A lot of people love to read books and listen to podcasts that are either in their industry, have insight on the newest products, or are business based. By adding a book club, you can engage readers to listen or read the specific material and have them discuss with you the information they learned. This is a great way to create a blog as well as keep your readers informed.

Infographics

If you are sharing information that could be better told in an infographic, then go for it! These can be used to share the do’s and don’ts of a topic, show steps, or share the difference in image sizes that correspond to the appropriate social media.

Video Blogs

There are a lot of bloggers on YouTube that share tips and tricks to their trade, DIY, and even tutorials on everything. When you are looking up how to do your makeup, create a website, or cook a meal, people go to YouTube to view a quick, instructional video that will give them all the information that they need. There are plenty of ways that you can use video blogs as part of your content strategy.
