In my opinion having a list of topics before posting something is the most important step. We don’t want to be careless and choose the wrong words in our post. we should also think of an angle of a topic and that angle should capture the reader’s interest and other blogger’s attention. it’s putting yourself in their shoes first in order to know them very well. Knowing your target audience 🙂
yup, there are benefits of putting up inspirational posts, but we should know beforehand the possibles effects it may bring. Some bloggers tends to be to shallow and irresponsible that is why a lot of them ended up as the “most hated” persons on earth..hehehehe
Inspirational posts do help boost other people’s emotional state, it uplifts their mood and gives them hope. 🙂 nice post! i think i’m gonna try this.. thanks!
One thing I like about inspirational posts is that it changes my mood….everytime I’m angry or I feel sad i spend time reading inspirational blogs. Then after that i feel okey already…. I very grateful to those bloggers who gives inspiration to a lot of people….
