5 Types of Blogposts That Get Tons of Views

Lists

List posts are always popular because they are easy for viewers to read and process.

These kinds of posts are one of the easiest ones to write as you don’t have to develop a topic, just write it and that’s it: perfect for those days when you have very little time to blog.

Freebies

This one is a no brainer. Everyone loves getting free stuff. Include freebies in your posts and you’ll be a step closer to having a viral post.

How To’s/ DIY’s

How To’s and DIY’s tend to be the most shared blogposts on Pinterest. Share your tips on how to be better at something, how to style a certain item of clothing, share your favorite DIY

Tips and Tricks

Share your secrets: the way you do certain things. People are always interested in other people’s point of view of doing a certain task. I’ve noticed that all my posts where I share things about myself and how I do certain things have the highest number of views. You can share your tips and tricks about pretty much everything from how you dye your hair at home, how you stay organized, how you study, everything!
