Create Your Own Content

The easiest and cheapest way is to create the content yourself. Blog posts are short (usually 250-500 words) and they don’t typically have to be very technical – unless your blog is a technical blog. You can easily create this content for yourself if you have the time. When creating your own content, keep these points in mind:

1. Keep it short – about 250-500 words
2. Start with a catchy title and headline to get their attention
3. Get right to the point with the beginning (you only have a few seconds to catch their attention on the web)
4. Answer the reader’s question of “What’s in it for me?”

Creating your own content is a great way to save money and participate more in your blog project but you shouldn’t do it if you are a poor writer or if you take so long getting it done that you are not efficient and can’t keep the bog regularly updated. If you are not a writer, there are some other options for you to consider.
