<p>Highlights:</p>
<p><span id="more-216"></span></p>
<ul>
<li> Blogging is a cornerstone to SM campaign</li>
<li>Focus on “combined relevance” which should tell you the reason your content matters – also, “personal relevance” which is why content is important to your specific audience</li>
<li>Content should, first and foremost, be audience focused and not vehicle to push information about one’s self (on blog as well we other SM platforms)</li>
<li>Potential audiences are looking for a “point of view” on blogs</li>
<li>Use “Social Proof” to verify your content by embedding SM buttons and prove to audience the relevancy of posts</li>
<li>Grammar and writing quality matter</li>
<li>Weekends are ideal for sharing content</li>
<li>Custom designed formats are ideal</li>
<li>Make blog post titles descriptive to drive appeal on SM sharing sites</li>
<li>Multiple blog authors, with profiles, is preferred</li>
<li>Limiting categories can help page organization</li>
<li>Avoid “TLDR”  (too long, didn’t read)</li>
</ul>
