You probably never associated blogging with brushing your teeth before, but if you think about it there are a lot of things that should correlate between the two activities. And just like you want a fresh and clean mouth you probably want your blog to be one that is just as fresh. After all, the search engines love "freshness" just as much as visitors do. Here are some ways you should blog just like you brush your teeth.
It should be done daily. Actually, with brushing your teeth it should be several times a day, but the point is to keep a regular flow of content on your blog. You may not think you have time to blog every day and write at least one post, but when you consider how much time is wasted on a daily basis, you will see how much time you could have to write an awesome blog post once per day. This is the fresh content that will keep your blog's readership growing. If you keep notes of every blog idea that pops into your head it makes this job a lot easier.
It should be specific and detailed. A toothbrush gets into all the nooks and crannies of your teeth to make sure you don't' have any food particles stuck in there. You are basically detailing your mouth. Well your blog should be just as detailed. Don't just write generic posts all the time that could apply to anything. Give specific examples of your topics and do a few case studies. The more detailed you are the more loyal your readers will be. So don't be afraid to tackle those specific questions your readers might have. Specific posts using long-tail keywords also help to make it easier to rank in the search engines.
It should not be rushed. Have you ever gotten up late for work and had like 5 seconds to brush your teeth? You probably didn't do a very good job, even though you went through the motions. I have read a lot of blogs that sounded like the author was rushed as well. Do your research and compile all of your information before you even begin to write each post. This is why I like to keep a list of blog post ideas. This way I have time to think about each topic and formulate an idea of how I am going to go about writing on it.
It's not the only thing you need to do. Dentists will tell you that you need to do more than just brush. You should also be flossing to keep your teeth looking and feeling clean. In the same way, you should do more than just blog on your own site. You need to be tweaking different pages to make them convert better and contacting other blog owners to get more exposure to your site.
