How to Make Your Posts Interesting
Are your posts interesting?
There’s one big problem with a huge amount of the content on the web right now
And that is it’s not interesting or compelling enough.
Unfortunately, a huge proportion of the social media posts, blog posts, articles and even videos that are on the web are simply boring. They tell us things we already know, they do it in a style that’s not engaging and they have dull, descriptive titles.
Think about how many articles you’ve read with titles like:
How to Get Great Abs!
Or
Top Ten SEO Mistakes
Or
How to get more leads
Probably hundreds right? And by now that kind of thing is just old, tired and boring.
If you want to stand out and be heard then you need to make sure that what you’re putting out is interesting, different and unique.
Here’s how you do that.
Come Up With Something Fresh
If you look at a flock of sheep then which one always stands out?
The black sheep right?
You need to be that black sheep when it comes to your content on Facebook etc.
You can’t just post the same articles and topics that everyone else is posting or you’ll just blend into the crowd.
Instead, you need to offer something that people can’t get anywhere else that is completely unique.
How do you do you make YOUR Posts Interesting?
- Come up with something entirely new by combining different subjects, or by giving your own personal take on a popular subject.
- Find the latest and most exclusive stories you can. That might mean reading reports or scouring press releases, looking at whats trending right now. It takes more work but the result is going to make you stand out and be different.
Tell Stories.
One thing that never gets old is to tell stories. If you can report on the same thing as everyone else but give your version a narrative hook, a beginning, middle and end it will be much more compelling and much more enjoyable to read.
Think about when you’ve read a good book and sometimes it feels almost as though you’re coming out of a dream when you stop!
Or how about watching a movie and completely losing track of time?
With a great story, you can have the exact same impact on your readers. And then they’ll be hooked!

I agree, telling stories is a very effective way to get your message out to others. Stories are also a very unique and fresh way to bring interesting content to your target audience.
Totally agree Gary. Our own stories are unique and personal to us and thats what will make us stand out from others
