I promise a scintillating blog post-nothing more, nothing less- which is sure to give the readers goosebumps. It must be scintillating by every word, every sentence and to the last letter of it.When you finish reading it you must say, “O! Good God…, once more.”. And you go top again.

What else on earth you need if you could mill that captivating blog post in an hour? And yes, that surprisingly is possible. Follow this post letter by letter and send me the selfie of your jaw dropping expression when your post hits traffic beyond expectation.

I advise you practice this art perfectly (gain a baccalaureate in this!!) so you'll be able to carve an organic blog post or two even on a busy weekday.Believe me, this is going to be one of your lethal tools to skyrocket your blog traffic and blog earning.

A scintillating blog post is one that scintillates. That’s all.

Yes I mean it. It must flash and glitter brilliantly with respect to reader’s attention and interest. If your headline doesn’t connect, you haven’t penned that great post as yet. If the reader is not mesmerized by the images and videos on your post it’s not yet that post.

So what exactly does a scintillating blog post contain? Match your blog post with this checklist:

• A central idea woven around a personal experience

• An attention grabbing headline

• An exciting intro

• Original, unique, engaging but a short piece of content in simple and easy-to-understand language

• A breathtaking visual presentation

• A hidden value for the reader, appealing directly or indirectly (preferably a tutorial)

• Real life motivational examples or surprising survey data

• Proofs for the facts you provide

Besides, it does not contain a single word that's not required to establish the intent of the post.

Above, I have talked about what a scintillating blog post must contain. Here I give some instances:
