How To Start A Wall Street Blog

By Martha Phillips


If investment and finance is what you're interested in, you may create a Wall Street blog to provide information on these. That way, you could document your knowledge and you could also share this to others who would also love to learn about it. Starting this is easy. You may choose to have your own domain or you may just settle for a subdomain at blogging sites. If you're not yet ready to spend, the latter is your best option.

Just like with businesses, you need to define your market. This works with narrowing down your niche. While it is great in case you could talk about a wide variety of topics about finance, as a beginner, you could target your readers better by choosing a niche. For example, you may start with discussions on stock market. This can even be narrowed down to trading or investments.

While you may already know a lot about your topics, you could increase your credibility by having resources for your posts. You may refer to books and studies in your chosen niche. It is likely that there were already written articles relevant to your topic. This does not mean you're going to copy them. Use them as sources of information or inspiration for new topics you're going to talk about.

Introduce who you are to your audience. This will let them know you're an expert in your topic. This doesn't have to be a long bio with all of your educational and employment experience. State the most relevant ones and share why you've thought about writing about your chosen topics. If you are not yet an expert, do not pretend to be one. Be honest and tell your readers you are learning along with them.

For years, blogging experts have taught about writing your first five pillar posts. Initially, these will be the most informative articles on your site. As a standard, these are long articles that are well-researched and have information that your target readers will likely look for. Think about your experience when you were starting out. What topics were you searching for then?

Increase the content in your site by creating short articles frequently. It would be great if you could do this at least once a day. As much as possible, this content should still be useful to your readers. If you have not yet captured a regular audience, refrain from writing about your daily commute or your lunch unless something relevant happened.

If you already have enough number of posts, you can begin you link building activities. Look for relevant articles and share your opinion on them. Be sure to include a link to an informative article that you have written. You can also participate in forums. Some websites allow you to share your thoughts as an expert in exchange for exposure and bio.

It is easy to start blogging and sharing your knowledge to the world. What is more challenging is getting regular readers and keeping them interested. In fact, you will observe that you only get a few visitors to your new site. Just continue writing and building links. Soon, they will increase as you keep sharing information valuable to them.
