Today in my blogging course they discussed the writing of blog posts in the format of a list. It seems this is one of the most popular and successful ways to create blog posts that will get read and be passed on to others!
So what kind of list blog posts can you write for your Noah's Ark business? Let's look at 5 examples:
1. "10 great kid friendly treats for your next birthday party" - here you could list out different easy snack time foods for moms to choose from for their next kids party event.
2. "5 fabulous themes for your 3 year old's birthday bash" - list and describe 5 different fun themes that would be perfect for 3 year old children.
3. "15 birthday games guaranteed to make the neighbor kids beg their mom to live at your house." List and describe great birthday activities that a mom can coordinate for her next party.
4. "Beyond the bowl - 5 fun ways to serve ice cream to your birthday guests" - research and tell about some other fun ways to make ice cream the hit of the party.
5. "Free crafts - 10 fun and fabulous crafts that won't cost you a penny" - list out various craft activities that can be done using what most people have in their home or garage.
List posts are relatively easy to write because it can be as simple as writing down the list and then elaborating on each one (like I did above). They're easy for your reader because they can come to your blog and scan the post to see if it's something they want to read further - as you know, most people on the web are scanners so this fits them perfectly.
Obviously the temptation would be to write a list post for every post you write - don't fall into that trap either but do a list post every few posts or so to keep your content fresh and applicable to your readers.
Do you blog for your Noah's Ark Workshop business? Have you done a list post already? Please comment here with the URL to your list post so we can see! Thanks!
