By engaging your readers, encouraging them to follow your blog, or register for updates, you can give regulars a sense of belonging to an exclusive club or group. Consider granting them access to additional information, or special articles. Use your articles to invite feedback by asking questions or asking them to share their opinions. These are all ways to build and nurture a loyal following of people who, not only read your blog, but value it, and contribute to its success. Make it easy to share your content The best blogs post a variety of articles which are perfect for sharing. Each of your articles should have a Facebook, Twitter, Google+ and Pinterest link near-by so that readers can easily share the content.

For embedded videos, make sure they can like the videos so the feedback shows up on YouTube or any other social media page you choose. If you can incorporate these tips in to your blogs posts then you’ll already being doing a lot to boost your visibility in terms of SEO.
