Easy guide to blogging.......

Martin Spence on Jan 25, 2022

An informative, interesting and readable blog depends on a number of factors... here are a few. Pick the top 3 factors that resonate with yourself and use these to formulate your blogs.

How to start your 7th Wave Blog:

  1. Click “Log in” on the far top right of the homepage and login using your email address and password allocated with your 7thWave membership

  2. Click "Admin" - this is the administrative page for your blog/s

  3. Click "Create Blog" below the main titles and when the “Edit Blog” window pops up, fill, in order, the fields for your first blog:
  • Title, Subtitle Category (optional)
  • In the body of the blog add a few words to start – and save the blog.
  • You can amend your blog as you like before publishing.
  • You can also schedule your blogs.

Blog/Twitter Golden Rules:  

  • Blog posts with images are shared 2 to 3 times more on average.
  • Blog posts with images: 75 -100 words per image are more likely to retain interest.
  • Infographics are best to get the point over.
  • Show your personality and character.
  • Don’t forget to ask people to follow your blog: green button on main menu.
  • Header image optimum size 1200px x 400px
  • In-blog graphic 600px x 450px or 450px x 450px

Content Ideas:

  • Break up a guide or report into 10 new blog posts.
  • Upload an existing presentation in Powerpoint
  • Reimagine print material like brochures, handouts into on-line presentations, articles, and guides.
  • Interview your colleagues for powerful collateral you can share with your fellow medics – eg case studies, problem solving articles.
  • Send out a quick poll to check the pulse of your audience and write up a blog post on your findings.
  • Use lists – a top 10
  • What’s trending in your industry? (set up Google Alert or Talkwalker Alert to be notified when your business or industry makes news).
  • Use Videos to embed within a blog post.
  • Share what thought leaders are saying about your industry - LinkedIn is a great place to start looking for articles in your area of expertise.
  • Try unsplash.com or pixabay.com for royality free images.
  • Create a Pinterest board and send it out in an email campaign.

Last but not least, have fun and enjoy sharing your story!
