Engaging your visitors and getting them to return to your website and blog can be a challenge. So sometimes it can pay to mix your blog up a little. By this I mean taking a different approach to the format and style of your blog posts.
The blogging styles you adopt can also help provide variety to your content calendar and can also help you when you get that dreaded writer's block.
Equally, focusing on a few similar styles can also show the reader consistency and set a level of expectation that the reader will either like or dislike - this will, of course, be dependant on you and your audience.
So here are twelve ideas to help you shake things up a bit. All twelve are proven to engage readers and keep them coming back over and over again.
Try a few blog post styles
I find that every time I build a new website for a new niche and audience, it pays to first try out a few different styles to find out what works best for your readers, and to then be guided by your site's analytics as to what works best. Maybe even try a particular style two or three times to see if there are commonalities, and then play to those strengths.
So in this tutorial we look at twelve blog types that are proven to engage with their audiences - by this I mean the posts that are most read, shared and commented on.

I have struggled quite a bit to shape my articles just the way I wanted, and these clear guidelines detailing different "post types" have really helped me a lot with content creation; it's taken much of the uncertainty out of coming up with a new post! I have now created a content plan with different stages, from creating interlinked posts to a round up, and I think it will result in a much better affiliate marketing experience for me and my readers.
Thanks a lot!
