How you can use popular blogs Poll to Create Killer Blog posts.

by Harsh Agrawal on November 16, 2009

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Every one love list posts, where they can see lots of software’s or same kind of links at the same place. For example

And from the reactions I have received on these posts are incredible and lost of traffic. Specially social bookmarking websites love such listified posts.

I was reading Mashable posts on What’s your favorite news reader and it’s a poll in which people will vote or suggest their favorite feed readers.

I quickly had a glance at the comments and from there I can see some strong response for Google feed reader, Feed demon , Netvibes and several others.

Now if you think other way, you have an option to quickly create a killer post for your blog by simply give a quick glance on all the comments and you can pick 5 or 10 most voted feed readers.

Create a new post on your blog on 10 most popular feed readers /news aggregator and you will have a killer post. Is isn’t it simple?

Alternatively you can look at the polls created by Lifehacker to get such post ideas. This way I can bet you will never run out of blog posts.

Another thing which I can add here is , first review all the services ( Ex : Feed readers) separately and when you write a listified post, interlink them to your previous reviewed post. And you will have a great killer post, which will bring traffic and will also increase the page views.

What do you think about this idea? Can you add more ideas to this one ?
