Why documentation is important for bloggers

More often I received requests to improve website SEO or build a new website or improve an existing one. One common problem with lot of those website owners and bloggers is they do not have any documents about their expectations. They say do it best, do it as you like, I mean business. Or maximum they present some similar site.

Imagine a legal professional showing you a similar site and its about a hotel or resort.

That is not the story of most novice only. Even people in IoT business since over a decade and software professionals act numb. This simply put off me.

Whenever you start a blog or website, ask yourself

  1. Why I am creating this website?
  2. Who are my prospects?
  3. What I expect from this website?
  4. How this website well fulfill my expectation?
  5. How I want this site to look like?
  6. How I will promote this website?
  7. How often I will need upgrade?
  8. How much budget and time I can allocate for this?
Write down answers to above questions and any additional one that you have? To help you design part find a similar site. And mark the changes those you want in the layout etc. If you are solo chose your theme very carefully so you can customize it whenever you like. If you are a team, engage designers, developers, writers, Social Media team etc in discussion. Do the documentation first. This will help you in building your blog and online business.

Do not jump on the project without brainstorming else you will end up in trouble. Starting a blog or any IoT project without documentation is the first step towards failure. And if you are a beginner ......., ......., ........

How to get quality traffic on a single page website that converts

Single page website? Not a bad idea. May be you want to sell your products online. You can not write too much as you are too busy in creating and modifying your product. And you need to travel a lot for promotions. Outsourcing could be one of the answer but if your budget is tight then hiring a freelancer may drain your money. And writing regular blog post would be tough. In such a situation one page website can serve the purpose. It will be easy to update especially if its cms based may be like wordpress for example. Its one page website with simple product picture, detailed description, ways to order and customer review. You are not tech savvy and don't want to invest too much on website's geeky things. One page is enough for you. Its doable, but without traffic how will you generate online sales. That is the question right? I said quality traffic that converts and make your bank account numbers increase. After all you mean sales. Its a good idea that you want to focus on you...

What is SEO, Why SEO and What Not in SEO

What is SEO you can find millions of web pages across web. Here in this article i will try my best to give you some juice of my 10 years SEO experience. SEO or Search Engine Optimization is overrated in past few years. Webmasters are in the rat race of earning quick bucks from affiliate programs either by choice or by compulsion and hence they are forced to try any hooks and crooks to keep site on top of search results.

Why to hire human copywriter when AI can do the job

Good question, that many many many zombies throw at me when I discuss Copywriting. Of course Copywriting is not for zombies. If you are a person or company who has hired a Copywriter to make money then do not hire. Your goal is survival and not zoom or use change as an opportunity. Your question is pretty similar: why drink water when I have sweetlime tree in the backyard and a juicer in the kitchen. However, if you are a professional, business person, company or someone looking to make a change then a Copywriter is worth hiring. Why? If you are a beginner and truly stuck between thoughts of hiring a writer or going with AI, my suggestion is Go with both. Chose a human to use tools, chose a Copywriter to write and encourage him to use AI in creating copy. AI connects you with libraries worldwide and presents data in certain formats. It cannot add human touch. AI can not differentiate between good and bad, AI does not know who is your audience. A Copywriter can seek help from AI to fetc...
