Notes de l'éditeur
- Exciting stuff, right? No wonder most people launch a blog with so much fanfare and then let it wither and die on the vine.
- Dan Zarrella of Hubspot basically turns data into more data, crunches social media numbers and this was a question on a survey he conducted with over 12,000 responses
- Impressions = any time our brand appears in someone’s facebook or twitter newsfeed it’s visible to their friends and followers, meaning the entire network has the opportunity to see it, can’t measure exactly how many do, but the potential is great, especially with it happening on a regular basis
- Now we’re talking
- Accomplishing these three bullet points is easier said than done, especially when you consider that people engage with a book for several days at a time, a movie for up to 2 hours, a TV show up to an hour and a blog post for maybe 5 minutes.

- Our community answers many questions and so do we, but a lot of those questions are indicative of bigger issues;
- also Radian6 – as you all post more content, I’ll be able to use our Radian6 and JitterJam accounts to support your efforts and suggest subject matter to help fill your pipeline with writing material
- So your late coming home, you’ve been asked to stop and get milk on your way, you come to the milk display like most people come to a website: pressed for time and unsure of a lot of details. So you freeze and think, “Man, I thought I knew what I was here for and now there are WAY more options than I expected.”
- They follow a scent until it goes cold and then they start over; think of it as digging a lot of shallow holes, coming back to the surface and repeating that action until you strike something that looks promising and keep digging; scent = trigger = keyword
- Based on our collective knowledge of the subject matter, are there any words we could add to that list?
- Another way to help people make a quick decision or feel like they’re on the right track is to write visually, what do I mean by that? Well…
- Calvin knew without knowing what the opposite of writing visually is and he also knew that it’s standard practice
- Use shorter sentences and paragraphs and already, you start appealing to the online eye without the first word ever getting read
- Communicating with descriptive words in context is a shortcut to getting your point across. Stop sign is a great example of that.
- Pretty much speaks for itself
- Think like an outline when you’re putting a post together and use the headings as subheads. Make them descriptive of what you’re writing about in that section to support scanning behavior
- If your headline says one thing and the image accompanying your post says another, consider that shallow hole abandoned
- By about the fourth line here, I’ve completely lost interest and focus and I’m not even halfway through the paragraph. Also consider the fact that lines 2-6 make up one sentence. Not good. How could we make this easier to read and digest more quickly?
- Same information, perhaps taking up a bit more real estate, but online real estate is free so the goal is to communicate effectively, not cram every little nook with content. Space is not precious in your blog post, communication is.
- Just because you know someone else has covered the same topic as you before on a different blog, doesn’t mean you should skip it. It means you should come at the topic from a little different perspective and give readers a new take that will be helpful
- We’ve all come into contact with stories from students, LLLs, faculty, staff, or anyone else that can help illustrate the points we’re trying to make in blog posts. Use them. Our expertise is a result of cumulative experiences. Remove the names of those involved and generalize it a bit. Combine two similar experiences to make one point. Just rely on your historical knowledge of the program.
- Know what doesn’t get links? Jargon does not get links or comments (at least not comments we’d like). It gets made fun of with games like Buzzword Bingo
