It’s not uncommon for bloggers to hit a wall and begin to wonder what steps that they need to take to keep moving forward. If you want to take your blog to the next level, we have some ideas that should hit the target beautifully.

Explore Guest Posts
We’ve talked in the past about how to
build up authority with your blog and that’s important. When you have authority, you’re going to gain more attention from people interested in viewing your content, but that’s not all. You’ll also gain attention from the media who are interested in using your blog as a source. One of the best ways to build up authority will certainly be through guest posts. You just need to make sure that you are forming these links with the right websites. 


Brand Choices

Next, you should think about building up your business brand. You have to remember that your blog is a business and it does have a brand or at least it should. If you can establish a brand for your blog, it will instantly be more recognizable. There are a few ways that you can do this. However, one of the best would certainly be to explore sponsored merch and promotional merch. If you
browse around, you’ll find that there are countless different possibilities for merch that you can plaster with the brand for your blog and spread the word. 


You could also take this one step further. Usually, sponsored merch is given away for free to loyal users and visitors. However, you might also want to think about exploring more possibilities like setting up a shop that is connected to your blog. To do this, you need to make sure that you look at the right eCommerce platforms. You should also consider speaking to a designer to ensure that this page can be added seamlessly to your blog. You might also need to consider using a different hosting service. 


Go Bigger With Content

Finally, you might want to think about adding different types of content to your website. Within a few years, most of the content that you find online is going to be video. So it does make sense to start exploring vlogging possibilities. To do this, you just need a high quality set up and a few basic skills. You can find plenty of YouTube guides that could be perfect if you are interested in learning how to vlog sooner rather than later. You should also explore how to share this and reach the biggest audience possible across different platforms. 

We hope this helps you understand some of the key ways that you can take your blog to the next level. In doing so, you could earn more profits with your website and ensure that you can expand your audience to tremendous new levels. Ultimately, with the right steps here, your blog could be a key source of info for countless individuals online and you could become a major player in this industry.

There are over 500 million blogs in the world at the moment and they are growing year on year. If you are just starting or you are a seasoned blogger, you will want to ensure your blog stands out from the crowd. Check out this post which shows you some ways to better your blog. Another important area that will help with your blog is increasing the Domain Authority. For those not familiar with this phrase, the Domain Authority is a calculation that rates your blog from 1 to 100. The higher you are on the scale the higher your blog will appear on search engine rankings. Also, if you wish to make money from your blog, the higher your Domain Authority the more you can ask for paid opportunities. Below are some ways you can improve your Domain Authority and get your blog higher up the rankings.  

Link Building
Building links to your site is a great way of increasing your Domain Authority. A word of caution though, you want backlinks from quality sites, sites that have a higher Domain Authority to your own. Focus your time on getting links that will improve your site, if you don’t have a lot of time to do this yourself, consider employing a link building service.

Internal link building
As well as getting backlinks from other websites, you can increase your Domain Authority through the internal structure of your blog. This means in each blog post you should include 2 or 3 links to other posts you have. This is such an easy way to build your internal link structure and get your Domain Authority moving in the right direction.

Remove broken links
Having broken links can impact your Domain Authority so go through all your posts and ensure all links are working. This may be time-consuming but it is worth it in the end. It’s an easy fix to ensure it doesn’t negatively impact your Domain Authority. 

Be an Authority in Your Niche
Having quality articles is important, especially to your Domain Authority and to Google. Choose a niche and write high-quality posts within that area. An area that people will search for time and time again. If you are helping your audience Google may even use your article for a snippet which means you will be the very first link on page one. 

Search Engine Optimisation 
Ensure your blog is SEO optimized so that when search engines crawl your site they can see your content and offer this up to those who are searching. This means ensuring you have a meta title and meta description especially on your pictures, your home page and you make use of heading tags too. Once you start using all these tools they will become second nature and it will make all the difference to your Domain Authority.

It can be daunting considering all these things to improve your Domain Authority but with practice and determination, you will increase the authority of your blog.

All parents want the best for their children and for many parents this means giving their child the possibility of making it as a child star. From television, to modelling, to film; there are several opportunities for children to make it big from an early age. However, these are very unique markets, and you need to know your stuff before you and your child embark on this journey. Thus, keep reading to discover ten top tips for getting your kid into the world of stardom…
  1. It’s all about who you know – Show business is all about having quality contacts. Talk, talk and talk some more! Join Facebook, Twitter and all the other social media websites of today. You never know where one conversation could lead. (Note: You need to be savvy too, there are a lot of scams out there). You can read this on how to spend the right amount on paid media if you’ve got a budget for advertising. 
  2. Enter talent shows / contests – This will help to get your child noticed. It will build their self-esteem and it will make them more ready for the industry. 
  3. Practise, practise, practise – Whether your child wants to get into modelling or acting, there is no such thing as too much practise. You should also make sure your child practises in front of others in order to get their confidence up. 
  4. Choose an agency wisely – The agency you opt for is one of your most important decisions. You need to make sure they have a good reputation and are active in their search for job opportunities. You also want to ensure they represent your child well. 
  5. Keep it fun – The moment it starts becoming unenjoyable for your child is the moment you need to call it a day. Nothing is more important than your child’s happiness.
  6. Put together a professional portfolio – Whether it is a modelling book or a video portfolio of your child acting, there is one key ingredient to success – and this is versatility. You need to show that your child is not a one trick pony and that he or she has the ability to adapt to any task thrown their way.
  7. Instil a positive attitude in your child – You aren’t always going to have rosy days. You won’t always hear a yes. You need to prepare your child for this. They need to realise that it is impossible for every child to get the job they go for. Don’t let it affect their happiness or their attitude when they go for the next role. 
  8. Don’t part with cash – Of course you may need to pay to be on agency websites and alike – this is normal. But don’t pay for advice. Don’t pay for ‘guaranteed’ work. It doesn’t happen like this. These are scams. 
  9. Be punctual – A lot of people think having a child is a good enough excuse to be late. After all, the little one can’t drive, so it can’t affect their chances of being chosen right? Wrong. Punctuality is imperative and it is your job to be so. 
  10. Embrace it – This quest to success should be fun and exciting. Embrace it and enjoy it to the fullest.
