Blogging guidelines

Here are the blogging guidelines for your reference. We will continue improving them as Bloggertone evolves. Come back to this page every now and then so see what's new and what to expect!

It needs to be Original Content - It cannot be something that has already been posted on your site or any other site. If you want to, you can re-publish that content elsewhere after a period of two weeks. (We suggest you at least alter it slightly to enhance the possibility of it being indexed by search engines).
You need to submit content at least every 30 days - The editor will liaise with you regarding upcoming themes & editorial.
Add Value and Avoid Self Promotion - Avoid promoting your services directly. Leave that for your biography or "resource box". It'll be more effective and keep readers engaged. Blog posts should connect, inform or add value for the reader.
Linking out in your Post - It is accepted to point at different resource/s that support or serve as examples to your post and the overall message you want to convey. Please refrain from linking to your own website unless it is of utmost importance, your author box (available in each post) displays information about you and a link to your website. We may remove links as we see fit in an attempt to keep Bloggertone fair to all bloggers.
The Headlines and First Paragraph - A good headline and first paragraph will grab the reader’s attention. This is especially important if you are writing about perceived non-fashionable topics. Sub-headings are also a great way of breaking up your posts (use the h3 tag!), and help make them easier to read. Do not capitalise your sub-headings, keep them to normal case
Add an Image or Video - Images are great for grabbing attention. If you can’t come up with an image that directly relates to what you’re writing about, think of abstract images that may illustrate your point. Video is also an extremely effective medium so if you have one, making sure to include it.
You can upload pictures but video should be embedded directly from your favourite video platform (e.g. Youtube, Vimeo, etc)
Give the Credit - Name of the artist that created the image/video so that the due credit can be included under the image/video. The onus on you (the blogger) to ensure that the image can be published and is not subject to licenses or copyrights)
Ask for Comments and respond to Comments- If you truly want an interactive blog post that engages the readers, make sure to ask them questions and comment on their thoughts. A Bloggertoner must be a good networker!'
Be Yourself - If you are passionate, then be passionate. If you are provocative, then be provocative. Let your personality out and be yourself.
And finally remember to engage, engage, and engage!
