As you keep on striving through the blogging ride, you must consider to build your blog on the solid & proven fundamentals lest you've been running off the track. You’ll feel highly frustrated to have been on a blog for years only to discover later that you’ve been riding off the track.

Don’t you think you should patiently learn the basics of blogging and implement these in your daily blogging routine? Or would you be comfortable working day and night without being able to ascertain whether or not you've been riding on track?

Far back in 2008 when I was struggling with a blog, I discovered that I’ve been doing it the wrong way for months and years which was the exact cause of the low traffic on my blog. How I wish I knew all these fundamentals then!

Whether you are just starting out or you’ve been in the blogging game for some years now, endeavor to check these out in case there could be one or two things you have been doing wrongly without knowing at all.

In order to help boost your patience and to make you shine in the blogging ride, I want to analyze these 10 pillars of blogging in a simple way.

Here are the 10 blogging pillars on which you must build your blog:

1. Create different forms of content for preferences
2. Stay on point
3. Use authentic monetization
4. Engage in outreach campaign
5. Hire people to help you do the jobs you can’t handle alone
6. Blog with passion and see money as mere additions
7. Create bonds through email
8. Stand out through your personal story
9. Build engagement with your subscribers
10. Promote authority bloggers in your industry

Create Different Forms of Content for Preferences

In order to satisfy and appeal to the large audience, use the different forms of content on your blog. For the sake of individual preferences, provide the various forms such as eBooks, audio books, videos and podcasts. Some may prefer podcasts to watching videos.

Using several forms will help you reach out to more audiences and you’ll improve your bounce rate.

You wouldn’t have to be using the text-based content alone as you know some may not have the time to read your texts but would love to watch the live broadcasts on your blog.
