I have recently written a post on my other blog about how I intend to use the bloggers rule of 24 to improve my blogging out put. I will be using that methodology here on this blog, but it has also got me thinking where else one could or should implement such a methodology.
In very simple terms the bloggers rule of 24 states that after writing your blog post, you should leave it in a ‘ready to publish’ state for 24 hours before you publish it, this allows a cooling off period allowing you to revisit that blog post with fresh eyes, and perhaps a slightly differing opinion on your work, and then make any changes you wish before publishing.
In Affiliate Marketing one of the biggest tasks that I have is writing content for websites. As we all know it is this content that is most critical in our attempts to make a success of our project, it is this content that visitors need to find useful in order to stay on, and buy from your site, it is this content that all our SEO hangs off and this content that Google will index and give us out search engine presence.
The bloggers rule of 24 should also be applied to any content that you write, I will certainly be implementing this methodology in all the content I write, be that a blog post, content for a site, marketing email or anything else. I have also just written a tender for some consultancy work, I have employed the same methedology to that as well.
As I stated in my other post on this subject, there are circumstances when this rule should not be applied, time critical pieces, offers or reactive content, but most of the words you write could be subjected to this methodology.
I am currently writing content for a website selling children’s high chairs. I am about finished with the writing, but, once I am finished, I shall leave it 24 hours and re-read and edit the content.
