Each blogger sometimes has to write posts on specific topics, and it can be difficult to find many interesting and fascinating information. The first is to take care of the reader, the benefits for him the job. But what if the post is not that attractive and dry?
Let’s imagine such a situation – you write post about BMW, but it turns not attractive, without spice (although the subject can be quite interesting). You can publish it as it is, leave it on then (hoping that inspiration will appear later), or, using simple techniques (single or multiple), add some “spice” or missing “flavor” to the failed post. What is this “extra detail” that can spice up bland food? There are plenty variants! Well, for example:
Links
The compilation will be of value in itself. By the way, the outstanding post can only contains single collection of links to the most worthy and interesting sources on the topic. This is especially useful when the subject of the article is quite extensive, and there are many other points of view or details that would be a great supplement your note. You can find even special services for bloggers that make it easy to implement this method. For example, Zemanta Blogger searches for related links.
Example: You are writing a review of a new BMW. In addition to its experience can offer the reader (for example, at the end of the post) a compilation of reviews on other blogs and resources that a person can see the different views.

Multimedia materials
It can be a video, presentations, and even audio (or podcast). And do not even your own. Multimedia materials can revive even the most “dead” material. The copyright holders can usually not against placing such material on third-party resources. Many bloggers often use the video in the online services reviews. Firstly, it carries more information, and secondly, can allow to the visitor to save much time. There in no necessary to read a large text review.
Example: Again about review BMW. If you go to YouTube you can find a lot of interesting material on the subject – the official role, presentations, tests, and so on. The only thing – all still be careful not to violate someone else’s copyright. you can also attach a video like below where Matt Cutts is explaining about the links from Guest blogging.
More Stats
Good data is self-sufficient and value. If the topic may mean some statistics – use it. Of course, if you find it. Digital information is compulsory condition for some topics. Let’s say you are writing about your success in online earnings or promotion of a site, it would be a sin not to add to the texts some relevant statistics.
Themed surveys
Another good option – to create a poll on the topic. The beauty of the reception is that it adds extra value, dynamics, and thus it can be created in minutes and it will be your story! Polls for websites – a great opportunity to interactivity with the visitor, simple and at the same time “catching”.
Example: The survey on the topic – Do you like the new BMW? Your favorite brand of car, what’s your car, etc. – For automotive website will be quite useful.
Quotes or jokes
Sometimes the theme of the post allows to find some successful and interesting quotes. In some cases, even short stories or anecdotes. Both (especially humor) enlivens any post, adding a formal writing style.
Example: Statements of famous people and stars of BMW, and maybe even an anecdote.
Statements from social networks
You can offer the reader a bit of cut views of the social networks, such as Twitter, or Facebook. You can even take the information from the personal blogs of various authors – this will add a post “on the part of”, and if it is also authoritative people in certain circles – value (significance) notes increased.
Bonuses are not related to the subject
If you can not find or think of anything sensible of the above, add the bonus is not relevant to the topic, just an entertaining video, like many bloggers. It is true they are not always put in the video when they have nothing to say, rather it is they just have a “personal chip”, no more, but the post of perceived alive.
I think you have seen the simplicity of these methods. You can always use any of these methods to make your post interesting, useful and catchy. This will revive and give value even the most boring post! If you have any comment, feel free to comment this article.
