Do you suffer from the dreaded “nobody reads my blog” syndrome?

Have you ever wondered why your blog isn’t getting the amount of visitors and activity you’d like it to?

I’m going to show you the top three reasons why people don’t read blogs. AND what you can do to overcome all three.

The number one reason why people don’t read blogs is they simply don’t know they exist. With the literally thousands of other blogs out there, making sure your blog rises to the top can be a daunting endeavor. But there’s a solution to this dilemma, and it’s yours for free.

To help you out, I’ve developed a free video mini-course called “The Well-fed Blogger.” This mini-course gives you little-known strategies you can use every time you write a blog post to help your audience find your blog.

The next reason people give for not reading blogs is that they’re just too busy. In today’s go-go-do-do society, this is understandable. It’s almost forgivable. But the fact is, people DO take the time to read blogs. So, what makes those blogs so different, so compelling, that even the busiest of busy person browses over her favorite blog every morning? More important – what can you do to put YOUR blog among the must-reads? In the free Well-fed Blogger mini-course, I’ll reveal the secret formula used by successful bloggers. This one little strategy can launch your blog to the top of your audience’s gotta-read-it list.

Lastly, and I’m just going to give it to you straight here, okay? Some people might not be reading your blog because, well, because they simply don’t like it. Ouch! I know that’s painful to hear, but it’s true of many blogs. Maybe it’s the design. Maybe it’s the content. No worries, though. In the free Well-fed Blogger mini-course, I’ll disclose design elements that work and stealth maneuvers for creating content that will draw your readers in and keep them coming back for more.

Just think of the benefits you can get by owning a top-notch blog:

* You can strengthen your brand by positioning yourself as the go-to-guy (or gal) in your field of expertise.
* You can develop a trust relationship with your readers and then market your products and services to them.
* You can sit on your yacht and drink Mai Tais. Well, maybe not this year, but if that’s what you really want, it could happen!

The Well-fed Blogger free video mini-course shares tactics I’ve learned while sitting at the virtual feet of some of the blogosphere’s most respected experts.

To get started, simply type your first name and email address into the form to your right, and GET FED NOW!

From the Creating Compelling Content group description: Do you wish more people read your blog? Did your last submission get rejected . . . again? Do you rank on page one of Google for keywords other than your name? Do you like to help and receive help from other writers?

If you can relate to any of the above writer dilemmas, then this group is for you.

The purpose of this group is to help each other learn to create the best possible content out there — books, posts, and articles that grab a reader’s attention from the title and keep them engaged until the end.

Creating Compelling Content isn’t designed to be one author’s platform — it’s a place for writers to share instruction and tips for creating great content. You’re also welcome to share your writing victories, writing defeats, writing-related sites (yes, even your own), and things you find useful as you strive to create compelling content.

Keep it writing related and please, no profanity or crudeness, and join in the discussion. Let’s encourage each other, offer what has helped us in situations others are struggling with, and poll the group for advice when you’re going through writing struggles of your own. And if you run across some cool tool or tip or website for writers, by all means, let us know about it!

This group is not limited to any particular genre or writing type — and both beginners and pros are welcome to participate.

The first thing you need to do is introduce yourself by writing a brief note on the wall — tell us what you write and what you are looking for in a group like this one as well as what you would like to contribute to the group.

I have a work-in-progress website that I plan to use to help this group — Creating Compelling Content. Blog posts about content creation and longer articles, as well as a FREE Creating Compelling Content mini-course, are available at that site. New content is being added frequently.

I invite you to subscribe to the site and become active on it as well.
