Topic Theme: November is typically a time to be thankful. This is a great time of year to ask for customer reviews and publish them throughout your website as appropriate. If you have an eCommerce store, product reviews are best placed on that product page. Showing your gratitude for customers who give your reviews can be done with $5 coffee shop cards or discounts on future orders.
Topic Type: Aim for customer reviews.
You can also take this time to write about the product or service that was reviewed. Also include the review. You can repurpose a review you already have from Google My Business, Yelp, Facebook, or Trustpilot. Copy the text and paste it into your blog. Link back to the review! By now, you’ve probably got your writing time down to about 45-60 minutes. Are you enjoying blogging yet?
Blog Checklist:
- A 1200 x 628 pixel featured image. Create one on canva.com. It’s free. Save it as a jpg because it’s the smaller size. Be sure you name your image something that makes sense. Name it with the headline and “featured-image.”
- Write an alt tag (alternative text) for your featured image when you upload it to the media library. I usually say “featured image for [title of blog post]”
- A 155 character meta description (snippet) and focus keyword
- Don’t forget to change the blog category.
- Don’t forget to change the slug (permalink) for this post.
- A good headline? Sharethrough is a great tool to help you write better headlines. It’s free!
After you’ve written at least 300 words, and ensured you have all of these items, be sure to delete this prompt. We wouldn’t want that published.
