So today I've been searching around the internet trying to learn a little on how to write good blogs to turn myself into a dolphin, so far this is the best guide i have found to help me maybe it will help you !

Tell your story– it is one of the key things that will make your content stand out of the crowd

Share how you feel – it will take your readers to a deeper place and make it more relatable

You’ll never please everyone – the sooner you make peace with this reality, the better!

Write about things that matter to you – passion is infectious and your readers will catch ahold of it. Tell the world something important.

Inform, inspire and interact – aim to do these things every week (read more on this)!

Experiment with different styles of writing – it will help you find your voice

Mix up the length of your posts – short can be sweet but long can be epic!

When an idea strikes – drop everything and capture it!

Do everything you can to understand who is reading your blog – it will make you much more useful to them.

Before you publish – ask what you want your reader to do after reading your post – and edit accordingly. Calls to action are important!

Become hyper aware of problems – and obsessively write posts that solve them.

Put aside time to come up with ideas to write about - here are 180 suggested topics.

Put aside time to create quality content – it doesn’t just happen!

Put aside time to edit and your posts – it will take them to the next level

Get a life – you’ll be a much more interesting writer if you’ve lived a little

Ask your readers questions – it will make them feel like they belong and you’ll learn a lot from their answers!

Take your readers on a journey – posts that build from one to another can be powerful. Build momentum and create anticipation and you'll hook readers for the long term.

Brainstorm regularly – generating ideas for future posts now can save a lot of pain later and help you keep things rolling. I highly recommend mind mapping.

Not every post needs to go viral – shareable content will help you grow but it may not serve your current readers best.

Write, Write, Write – the more you practice, the better you will get

Publish selectively – you don’t need to publish everything you write
