Blog Writing Project: 5 Best Tutorials

There were 71 entries to DailyBlogTips.com’s blog writing project: tutorials but I picked my 5 best blog post tutorials based on how I find the tutorials useful and informative. Here are my top 5 favorites:

1. How To Run A Fantabulous Blog Contest
This is a must read tutorial for all bloggers who want to take advantage of blog contests to earn more feed subscribers, more traffic and more link backs. I am planning to hold a blog contest in one of my blogs and this post will surely serve as my blog contest checklist.

2. A tutorial on mastering Digital Photography in minutes!
I have been scouring online for photography tips and tricks. I have actually been spending a lot of time yesterday taking photos of flowers, toys, chairs, etc. in the hope that I can improve the way I take pictures. I have found a new hobby in photography and this tutorial is exactly one of those photography tips and tricks articles that I have been looking for.

3. Gaining Backlinks With SEO Friendly Web Directories
I want to improve my sites’ ranking in the search engines and of course this post’s links to seo friendly web directories will surely help.

4. Protect Your Blog And Counter Copyright Thefts
I was a newbie blogger writing my posts on wordpress.com early last year and I got very pissed off by plagiarists and blog content thieves who would get my contents and paste them in google adsense monetized websites. I hate people who monetize their blogs using other people’s write ups. This tutorial is surely helpful for people who want to do something about plagiarism.

5. How to Write Scannable Content: A 6-Step Approach
This article is very helpful for bloggers like me who want to write web reader-friendly articles in their websites. I hope other bloggers who joined the blogging project will take note of the pointers enumerated in this post. I have read some blog writing project entries which could have been very informative but the blog post structure needed some makeover.
