In addition, dig deep into their thoughts about your content and how they engage with it. Determine what topics they\u2019re interested in, which blogs they read and how often, and the visuals they\u2019re attracted to.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/creating-content-for-startup-blog\/audience-research.jpg\" alt=\"audience research\" width=\"1500\" height=\"844\"><\/figure>\n<p>Once you\u2019ve done your research, create reader personas, which are breakdowns of your ideal readers. You may need to <strong>create a few personas<\/strong> to cover a range of people most likely to read your blog.<\/p>\n<p>Your reader personas should include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Name<\/li>\n<li>Age<\/li>\n<li>Education level<\/li>\n<li>Career<\/li>\n<li>Cultural background<\/li>\n<li>Interests<\/li>\n<li>Lifestyle patterns<\/li>\n<li>Future goals<\/li>\n<li>Challenges they\u2019re facing<\/li>\n<li>How they find information<\/li>\n<li>Digital platforms they\u2019re on the most<\/li>\n<li>The kind of content they consume.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Once you have these details and have a better understanding of what your readers like, you can create a content strategy they\u2019re more likely to enjoy and interact with.<\/p>\n<h2>Use the Hub and Spoke Strategy <\/h2>\n<p>With a grasp on what your ideal readers deem valuable, it\u2019s time to <strong>create a strategy for your blog content<\/strong>. The <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/audienceops.com\/hub-spoke-content-marketing\/\">hub and spoke strategy<\/a>, in particular, is beneficial for content planning.<\/p>\n<p>This strategy is best understood as a visual.<\/p>\n<p>Envision a bicycle wheel with spokes. The hub is the main content topic, while the spokes connected to it are the supporting topics that substantiate that central topic.<\/p>\n<p>The goal is to <strong>create a lot of content around primary topics<\/strong> to show that you\u2019re a thought leader on specific subjects. Thought leadership can increase your authority and prompt search engines to deem your blog trustworthy, which helps you drive more traffic to your site.<\/p>\n<p>To use the hub and spoke strategy, the first step is to <strong>research keywords for hubs and key phrases to use in your spoke content<\/strong>. One to two hub keywords is enough, as you\u2019ll create a lot of spoke content for each. After that, brainstorm topics around your keywords and phrases with which your readers will connect.<\/p>\n<h2>Be authentic<\/h2>\n<p>Aim to <strong>be as honest and accurate with your content as possible<\/strong>. Write blog posts that discuss your company in a transparent way. Use these posts to help develop your identity as an organization and show the world who you are. You can even communicate your values through your blog content.<\/p>\n<p>However, it\u2019s vital to be authentic in your content. It\u2019s easy to fall into the trap of telling readers what you think they want to hear to secure a \u201cquick win.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, if your startup is committed to creating a healthier planet, your posts about this should talk honestly about where you are and what you\u2019re doing to honor this commitment.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pageonepower.com\/linkarati\/seo-for-eco-friendly-brands-how-to-avoid-greenwashing-when-trying-to-rank\">Avoid greenwashing in your content<\/a> and <strong>don\u2019t misrepresent your environmental activities<\/strong> to try and win readers over. If you\u2019ve yet to become an entirely sustainable company, don\u2019t say you have. And don\u2019t write about how you\u2019ve reduced your carbon footprint by 50% when it\u2019s only 5%.<\/p>\n<p>If readers discover dishonesty, that content will ultimately hurt your brand far more than it could ever help. Even big brands and established businesses struggle to overcome that kind of reputational damage. Your startup\u2019s blog is a clean slate; use it as an opportunity to invest in your brand.<\/p>\n<h2>Write long-form content <\/h2>\n<p>A <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.orbitmedia.com\/blog\/blogging-statistics\/\">survey by Orbit Media<\/a> revealed that the <strong>average blog post is a little over 1400 words<\/strong>. But the survey also shares that content even longer than that (around 3,000 words) gets better results.<\/p>\n<p>Only a tiny percentage (4%) of bloggers write content that long regularly. If you <strong>learn to write high-quality, long-form content<\/strong>, you\u2019ll have a <strong>better chance of standing out<\/strong> among the millions of other blogs online.<\/p>\n<p>In general, though, you\u2019ll want to follow these steps during the actual research and writing stages of your content:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Determine the keyword and phrase<\/strong> you\u2019ll be using throughout the post. You should apply the Goldilocks principle here: not too much but not too little. You don\u2019t want to keyword stuff your content, as that may come across as low-quality writing to your readers, but you still want to ensure your content is optimized to rank for those terms. <\/li>\n<li><strong> Read content from your competitors and authoritative sources.<\/strong> From your competitors, you\u2019ll understand what content is being published that audiences are appreciating or not appreciating. From authoritative sources, you\u2019ll gain useful information and find useful pages to reference and link to in your own writing.<\/li>\n<li><strong> Outline your piece.<\/strong> Identify the core point of your post, your supporting arguments in the body, and how you\u2019ll wrap up the post. <\/li>\n<li><strong> Write the piece<\/strong>. Hook your readers with the first sentence. Keep their attention with a unique perspective and <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/tell-stories-others-want-to-share\/\" rel=\"noopener\">tell a good story<\/a>. Be sure your startup\u2019s personality shines through in your tone and messaging. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>It may take a lot of time and effort to craft a single blog post, but it\u2019ll be worth the effort when you see the kind of engagement a quality post inspires.<\/p>\n<h2>Create unique visuals <\/h2>\n<p>Images, videos, or other visuals should accompany every post you create if you want your readers to have a memorable experience with your blog.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, you can use stock images, but <strong>original visuals will give your readers a real \u201cwow\u201d moment.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Considering creating the following visuals for your blog posts:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Quotes<\/li>\n<li>Screenshots<\/li>\n<li>Infographics<\/li>\n<li>Stunning images<\/li>\n<li>Unique illustrations<\/li>\n<li>GIFs and memes<\/li>\n<li>Short and long videos<\/li>\n<li>Graphs, maps, and charts<\/li>\n<li>Interactive content like polls and surveys.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"ref-block ref-block--post\" id=\"ref-post-2\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/more-free-stock-photos-royalty-images\/\" class=\"ref-block__link\" title=\"Read More: 40+ Websites to Download Royalty-Free Images\" rel=\"bookmark\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">40+ Websites to Download Royalty-Free Images<\/span><\/a>\n<div class=\"ref-block__thumbnail img-thumb img-thumb--jumbo\" data-img='{ \"src\" : \"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/thumbs\/250x160\/more-free-stock-photos-royalty-images.jpg\" }'>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<noscript>\n<style>.no-js #ref-block-post-20346 .ref-block__thumbnail { background-image: url(\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/thumbs\/250x160\/more-free-stock-photos-royalty-images.jpg\"); }<\/style>\n<\/noscript>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"ref-block__summary\">\n<h4 class=\"ref-title\">40+ Websites to Download Royalty-Free Images<\/h4>\n<p class=\"ref-description\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\tChances are you're pretty tired of seeing traditional stock photos of people in suits shaking hands.
