Topic Theme:  Fools ask foolish questions and do foolish things. Everyone has things they wish their customers knew about their products or services before they purchase. Mistakes are a great way to inform and entertain future customers. Be sure to keep it generic, though. You want to avoid shaming the customer.

Topic Type:  Aim for an article that educates.

What are a couple of things you wish customers knew? Think about the questions you’re always answering. Address one of them or even all if it’s short. You can do it!

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.
