Remember, it is imperative to know who your audience is. Secondly, you need a feeling of responsibility to your audience, therefore you need to try to post on a regular basis. It is simply that if you intend to get your target audience to your site, then you have to have new content in there most of the time. I do my best to know and understand why my readers visit my site, and it might be because they want to know or see something new. Nevertheless, they can have their own opinion whether to agree or disagree with the site content. So empower them. Enlighten them. Even entertain them. But always respect them. Because they gave you their time and attention.

Being honest with your readers reiterates the fact that you are human and willing to learn new things too. But I always have a plan of action ready. Usually I offer to do a little more research and get back to them as soon as I can. I like to make it easy for my readers to stay in touch by promoting the subscribe by email feature. This ensures people visit your site regularly and ties in with your regularity planning. The post title and the first sentence line is all it takes for a reader to decide if he/she will finish reading the post or recommend it to others. I like to post bold headlines, and I find that grabbing the readers attention and taking them along works almost always. Love your topic with passion. Write about it as if your life depended on it. If your blog subject made a difference to your life, you can always find ways to write posts that will inspire others too.
