What Does A Good Blog Post Look Like?-John Hayden

This entry is part 2 of 2 in the series What does a good blog post look like?

In part two of this series I want to feature a blog post I saw by John Hayden. The post is titled; How Facebook turns active users into community managers – without paying a dime (video)

The following points, in my opinion, make this a good post:

  • An engaging picture that draws you into the post
  • An engaging title that clearly tells you what the post is all about
  • The inclusion of the word VIDEO. When this title is seen in the search results some may select this post if they are more  visual learners.
  • A good pre-video narrative that explains what you are going to view in the video
  • A well done and SHORT video that leaves you with memorable bit-sized content that is easy to chew
  • Good font size
  • Header (2) size sub-headings which increases the ease of reading
  • Excellent action steps after the video

Now that is this baby boomer’s opinion, what do you think?

What do you think?

    I think your suggestions are right on, as always!
    You’ve shared some of your wonderful ideas with me and I do try to incorporate them when I write a post. The one I need to pay special attention to is font size as the default size for my blog is too small. But I’m learning, Rosie, I’m learning!
