External links don’t take traffic away from you

Imagine you’re reading a blog post about the best laptops for work.

The writer says, “This laptop has the best battery life.” But that’s it—no proof, no links, nothing.

Would you trust that claim?

Now, imagine the same post, but this time, it includes a link to a trusted source showing battery life tests.

That changes everything! You don’t have to take the writer’s word for it. You can see the proof yourself.

That’s the power of external links—and as a blog writer, you need them.

It builds trust

When you link to credible sources, your readers see that you’ve done your research.

They trust you more because they know you’re not just making things up.

Google loves it

Google wants to show the best results to people searching...

If your blog links to high-quality sources, Google sees your content as helpful—and that can boost your rankings.

You get noticed

When you link to other blogs or experts, they might notice and even share your content.

That can bring more readers your way!

External links don’t take traffic away from you—they make your blog stronger.

They build trust, help with SEO, and create a better reading experience.

So, next time you write a blog post, don’t hold back. Add a few solid external links.

P.S:

Blogging is hard.

Writing, editing, SEO... it’s a lot.

If you’re too busy, hiring a blog writer can save time and drive better results.

Your audience is out there. Your content will reach them

Let me be honest. Blogging takes time. If you’re expecting to publish a few posts and suddenly have thousands of readers, you’re setting yourself up for disappointment. Blogging works, but only when you do it right. Think of it like planting seeds. You don’t throw seeds in the soil and wake up to a full-grown tree. You water them. You give them sunlight. You let them grow. The same goes for your blog. Here’s what realistic blogging success looks like: - 3 months in – You’re building authority. Google is noticing you. A few posts are ranking. - 6 months in – More traffic is coming in. Some posts are bringing daily visitors and sales. - 12 months in – You’re getting steady readers. Your brand is trusted. Sales or ad revenue starts growing. The people who win at blogging are those who stay consistent—not the ones who quit after two months. So, instead of chasing instant results, focus on the process: - Write helpful content that solves real problems. - ...

Next time you sit down to write, don’t cut corners

Let me be honest... writing blog posts is a lot of work. You might think, "Do I really need to write 1,000 to 2,000 words?" Maybe you’ve seen short blog posts online and thought, "That looks easier." But here’s the truth: If you want people to read, share, and trust your content, longer posts win. And I’m not talking about writing just to fill space—I mean writing posts that truly help people. Why longer (1k-2k words) blog posts work better? 1. Google Loves Them: Search engines like Google rank longer, detailed posts higher. Why? Because they offer more value. A 200-word post can’t cover a topic in depth. But a 1,500-word post? That can answer all the questions a reader has. 2. Readers Stay Longer: People click on blog posts because they want answers. If they land on your blog and only find a few short sentences, they’ll leave. But if you write a well-structured, easy-to-read post, they’ll stick around. And the longer they stay, the more likely they are to trust ...
