Dragging traffic to your blog is a difficult thing, you must catch your reader’s attention and also make them feel interested in reading through the next line. One of strategy to attract reader’s interest in browsing your site for posts they will like is by having a well-written about me.
For starters, your reader wants to feel credibility. This is easy to achieve by dropping a few credentials. In my case, I decided to put the job I’m currently hired for:
“Diego spends his business hours as a Technical Writer and Graphic Designer who multitasks in the knowledge management world.”
Notice how the “business hours” aspect connotes that this is not the only thing I do.
Once you achieve credibility, the reader not only wants to feel related to you, but also have a sneak preview of what is the content they will find in your posts. In my case:
“In his spare time he enjoys making and listening to music, gadget shopping, social networking…”
Now this line has covered the topics I post the most about; I redesigned my Twitter background? Yeah, that is social networking. A review on Four Year Strong’s “Rise or die trying”? There goes the music. And so the list goes on.
Up to this point, you are no longer a spambot; you already seem like a genuine folk who blog about interesting topics. So close the deal: write something that reveals a bit about your personality and may have nothing to do with what you blog about. Two simple facts may do:
“…watching documentaries and finding all sorts of solutions through basic patterns.”
This way, you have shortly defined who your blogging persona is and let your readers know why they should care (credibility), what they will learn (interests), and what makes you different (details).
Give it a try; you have nothing to lose and a following of readers to earn.
Dragging traffic to your blog requires more than interesting posts. Even ify ou catch your reader’s attention, you also have to make them feel interested in reading through the next line.
