Just imagine this: You're up late, coolly scrolling through your Steemit feed. You gradually look past 20 posts. Until the point that you see THE ONE. It has the headline of an angel. The included picture of a supermodel. Also, the introduction that shines brighter than a jewel.
This one post is so unexplainably overwhelming. You couldn't resist clicking it. Inside the post is the most fantastic content you have ever found in all your time on steemit.
You, my friend, are in love.
As a blogger, how would you make a post that is this attractive? What makes a Steemit post so appealing, visually?
Through my research, I have found 7 KEY ELEMENTS of what makes a steemit post so astounding. By utilizing these key elements, you'll be luring every reader that comes across you instantly. How about we get started.
Create of a spicy title
On Steemit everyone is vieing for attention. Ensure your title is attractive, unique, and valuable.
In the event that you need to ace the specialty of creating headlines, you have to learn the BASIC HINTS TO CREATING THE IDEAL HEADLINE. It heavily influences your post by making you headline the most outstanding in the crowd.
As a summary of the post, follow these tips whenever you're attempting to create a headline.
Be specific
Use figures
Use adjectives
Use statistics
Catch attention
Remember that you can follow these without making your post a click bait.
If you do have an incredible headline, ensure that the content of your post is great or even better.
Start with a luring introduction
Your introduction is the thing that sets the stage for whatever remains of your post.
Transform your introduction into a story.
An interesting story that invites readers to read a more of your post.
In your introduction, make a point to explain to them why your post is very important and what benefits they'll receive in return.
Hook your readers with a question.
Ask whether they have a particular issue and later reveal to them that the post has the solution (ensure that it does and you don't simply deceive them into reading).
Use facts.
Tell them that you know precisely what you're discussing.
Make a point to relate with your readers issues and reveal to them how you escaped them and how they can do what you did.
Next to the title, your introduction is the most important element of your post. Try not to spoil it.
Make an attractive image
A picture speaks a thousand words.
If your picture is a waste, readers will feel that your post is junk.
Find out few hints for making your next picture.
AVOID STOCK PICTURES. I hope you realize that cheesy picture with the two smiling representatives shaking hands?AVOID IT. Shouldn't something be said about the pictures of those 3D white characters? STAY AWAY FROM THEM.
Once more, if your picture is cheesy, readers will think that your post is too.
Use an image that is simple, eye catching, and speaks to what your post is all about.
For @justinayomide's featured pictures, I download them from google because I'm not great at making my own but you can use yours if you can.
I'll recommend Canva. It's much the same as Snappa just with less features. It's the best alternative to Snappa. (As I would see it.)
Use attractive subheadings
People are lazy. They don't care for reading huge collections of content. Separate your content into segments by including sub-headings.
Endeavor to make your subheadings nearly comparable to your headline. This keeps the post interesting.
Subheadings enable the eye to move through the content without getting worn out. They're fundamental to making your post searchable.
People are scanners. Rarely do we read a whole blog. Commonly, we just choose the headings/sub-headings, the bold content, italics, bullets, and records.
Ensure you add these to your post to keep your readers attention.
Separate paragraphs.
As I said in the last tip, readers basically can't read huge paragraphs.
Long paragraphs make a reader feel desperate to simply try and read through that paragraph. So rather than readers concentrating on the words that you're composing, they get exhausted extremely quick.
Take care of this issue by holding your paragraphs under 5– 7 lines (for PC viewing).
Short paragraphs enhance nature of the post, reader commitment and increase focus.
Add dazzling visuals
The greater population of readers are visual learners.
Use pictures.
Articles with pictures get 94% more views as indicated by Jeff Bullas.
Try to include custom, high quality, unique pictures to give your post an individual touch. For custom pictures, endeavor to keep the pictures steady in terms style.
If you take a look at my pictures, I have a steady, unique style for my thumbnail pictures.
Use videos
One research showed that landing post with a video builds transformations by 86%!
If a picture speaks a thousand words, at that point a video is extremely valuable.
For your Steemit post, use videos for instructional exercises, explainer video, exhibits, and so on.
Use memes.
Add a touch of humor to your posts! No one loves a dry, exhausting article.
Memes are extremely simple to make and all the more important, extremely simple to share.
Ensure you use memes for the correct event. In case you're focusing on a post towards a more established statistic, you presumably shouldn't use memes as you'll likely be seen as immature.
In any case, if your statistic is 15– 30 year olds, memes are an awesome method to spice up your post!
Use gifs
Gifs are awesome for two primary things:
Entertainment
Instructional exercises/How to do demonstrations
Show off your personality with gifs.
Or then again share a tutorial on the best way to accomplish something.
Use diagrams and graphs.
Show a few statistcs.
Use diagrams and graphs to demonstrate the adequacy of something or potentially the result of that something.
Compose a lovely "about me" paragraph.
An about me paragraph isn't the most essential thing on your post. In any case, that doesn't mean you ought to overlook it.
A decent about me paragraph can influence you to stand out amongst crowd basically in light of the fact that you invest the time and effort to include it in your post.
Your paragraph ought to portray you (or your image) in 30 seconds or less.
In your about me, make sure to include these 4 things:
Your name
Your identity
What you do
How your readers can profit
Copy and paste this paragraph toward the end of each post, or transform it into a picture as I did.
Conclusion
Also, that, fellow steemians, is precisely what makes a post so attractive.
