RE: On the Value of Personal Practice

in #yoga7 years ago

Hey Jason!
As promised here we are to provide you with some recommendations for your blog.
To be honest, you probably don't even need us :-) You're doing a lot of things quite well already, and we have no doubt that you're going to find your way here on steemit.

One thing that really called our attention is your positive attitude. We've just flown over a couple of comments you left on other people's blogs. Your engagement and positivity is just the way to go! That's how you're going to become part of this community and how your own blog will constantly grow into the right direction.

We don't really understand why you say that you are "expert on nothing" in your profile description. You obviously are! :-) You are a yoga expert and really good writer for a start.

Considering this article as an example regarding "writing style" you might improve one thing: try to use cross headings in order to structure the page and make reading easier. So try to use different font sizes to highlight what you want to put in front, leaving the details (not everybody might want to study) in the back. People just don't have time! Haha. It's a pitty, but that's like it is... They just wanna fly over the content, getting an idea of it anways, making a super fast decision whether they love the read or they don't (upvote vs. no upvote).

But again, you're doing already quite well. The only thing you need is a bit more visiblity. But that will come with time... Your content is good! That's the most important thing.

To provide you with a little more attention, this post has just been upvoted (100%) and resteemed by @surfermarly :-)
It's a very good example on how your content might find an even wider audience in the future: Yoga is a niche. However, when talking about yoga you might touch a lot of other topics that could be interesting for people even though they don't practice yoga. You probably weren't even aware of it, but you could have easily used the tag "photography" for this article since you included some really nice pictures here.

What I mean is: try to "open" your content a little bit and make "reach" your main goal. What might people want to read here on steemit? How can I (Jason) inspire them? What do I know what they could learn from me? Why would they come back to my bog, what would they find their? Would I meet with their expectations? Try to see it as a business, where you fulfill the dreams of your customers (in that case: your readers) :-)

As previously mentioned @acromott might be a great source of inspiration for you :-)

Hoping that you consider the information helpful we wish you a great time here on steemit! It's all about fun!!! :-)
