Mistake # 1: No Goal Selected:

Selecting the goal is really important for every blogger it is one of the silliest mistakes that we commits. What we want to accomplish from our blogging career? This is the question which often revolves in our mind and still we are not capable to react. It’s really crucial that we set our goal, we could start from small goals (One step forward two Steps back) and after achieving all our small goals we could jump to higher level. So we should plan each and every step and should follow the correct strategy to make our self stand out blogger.

Mistake # 2: Be short of Patience:

If you still believe that blogging is the one day show then it is the biggest blunder that you had ever committed. Blogging is the name of patience as over night you cannot become a successful blogger. Even when I started blogging I was lacking patience but soon I realized that it is the biggest weapon of a blogger as patience can make or break our blogging career. If we lack patience then we are hurting our own abilities. Gaining traffic is the biggest headache of a blogger in this case we should not get depressed instead we should remain calm and show patience  and should wait for the correct time when we see a boost in our traffic.

Mistake # 3: Posting Dull Content:

Content is the king, a blog is only knows for its content. But we often see some of our posts which has no starting or ending even we get confused what we had done. So we should try to make our post as simple as we can instead of writing complicated post we should chose straightforward words.

Mistake #4: Be Short of Knowledge:

Make sure you have all the sufficient information and knowledge on the topic that you are going to write. No one in this earth is born with perfection it is the education which makes a person skillful and knowledgeable. We all learn from each other and then promote it in our own unique style. For instance if a visitor arrived on your blog but he don’t found you post interesting then it will leave a negative mark on the visitors impression. So it’s vital that we all hunt for knowledge as education lead toward success.

Mistake #5: Be short of temper:

Again it comes to our patience, as I mentioned previously no one on this earth is born with perfection and same goes for our blog. We should remember that no one can get thousands of visitors in just few days of blogging. Instead of checking blog traffic statistics again and again we should concentrate on building our content as it is the most important objective for a blogger.

Mistake #6: Posting once in a week:

You could ever think that a News channel give updates once in a week, off course not. And same goes for our blog it is the content which brings traffic to our blog and if we lack posting consistency then for sure we will suffer from huge decline in the audience. We should update our blog once or twice in a day because keeping our blog up to date is the best way to gain attention of the spectators.

Mistake #7: Having No Social media Experience:

Social media is the most important source of traffic for every blogger so its time that we should take advantage of this fruitful opportunity. Social media not only gives exposure to our blog but also brings thousands of daily visitors. So we need to make sure that we have a Facebook Page, Twitter, Google Plus, Pinterest and etc where we could share articles.

Mistake #8: No SEO No Traffic:

When a blogger starts blogging his main aim is to drive traffic to his website and SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is the most reliable way to build traffic. But most of the Bloggers don’t concentrate on there SEO and hence they never achieve what they deserve. If your blog has content but lacks SEO then this situation is same as an ice cream with out ice. SEO plays anchor role in fact it is considered as a backbone of a blog.

Mistake #9: Blog Design Sucks:

The design of our blog should be attractive as design of our blog speaks how dedicated we are towards blogging. For instance, a visitor arrived on our blog and in his first impression he discovered that our blog is not in a systematic order and hence without reading any posts he quits. Make sure your blog design has correct color scheme with normal coloring, don’t over do it just keep it simple.

Mistake# 10: Not Revising Your Posts:

Do we review our posts before publishing? If we don’t then we are committing the silliest mistake. Reviewing post again and again not only removes grammatical mistakes but also improves the vocabulary of our post. If we publish our posts without reviewing then it will create bad impression in the minds of our visitors. And we will also see a terrible decline in our SEO
