Bad Blog Tip #6: Empty Promises

In our series of Bad Blog Tips, we will share with you the most effective ways of creating an atrocious, abominable and otherwise useless blog. Follow these nuggets of wisdom and soon your blog will be more rotten than spoiled milk.

By promising your readers the world, you can trick them into thinking that you are an A-list blogger. There are specific tactics that must be employed in order to make this happen and if followed carefully, you too can become a bad blogger.

After you’ve chosen a blog topic, masquerade as an expert in this field. Fabricate a back story that paints you as a veteran in whatever industry you claim to be a part of. Be sure to exaggerate, to better fool your audience.

Next, write some meaningless posts and compile them into a sloppy e-book, ready for distribution to anyone foolish enough to join your email list. These posts can be copied content, imitation or just plain jibberish. We will be putting some tutorials together for your perusal very soon.

Once you’ve “established” yourself as a guru in the eyes of your readers, start making those empty promises, here are a few examples.

  • Make millions through advertisements
  • Work from home in your underwear
  • Receive checks in the mail from only one hour of effort per week

These are just starter ideas, we will be presenting even more in the near future.  Always keep in mind that you are the puppet master, and you must treat your audience like mindless zombies that will follow your every command.

Promise them wealth, happiness and success from the world of blogging. Trick them into believing that by writing a few words and hitting the Publish button, they too can live the life of luxury. Embrace your inner weasel.
