How To Write A Conclusion For Your Blog Posts!

• Point Out What Your Reader Has Learned!

As I mentioned before don't just summarize repeat or throwback at your readers face what they have already ready - this is not a good example of how to write a conclusion at all!

In fact it is outright terrible! 

And at best bland! 

Instead, point out the key take away's and lessons that your reader has got from reading your blog post. This is so that in case of them skipping over and skimming your article they can, and will learn and take away something from reading just your conclusion. 

From the example summary above you can clearly see I'm summarizing the key points from the rather long article. 

Best Ways To Start A Conclusion Paragraph

Remind your audience what the point and purpose of the article is. Is it solving a particular problem?, to get your reader to take action?, to teach something?

Then just give your reader that little reminder of the point and purpose of your blog post and keep them inspired and motivated to it and ultimately - Take Action!. 

Do remember that every single post, article, video or just about any single thing that you create, even infographics, emails and what you post on social media MUST have and ABSOLUTELY needs a predefined crystal clear purpose. 

You are most certainly not writing or creating content for the sheer heck of it or to please search engines like Google, Bing or Yahoo. It has a strategic and defined purpose both for yourself and your audience, to get them to move forward to the proceeding stage of your online business. 

How To Start A Conclusion - What Is The End Goal?

What is the purpose of your article, what is its end goal?. What is in it for your reader?. 

Your readers want to get or gain something from spending their time reading your content and haven taken action on it - e.g what is the desired outcome for your reader? has a particular problem been solved? have they learned how to do something?. 

Spell it out to them, tell your readers what benefit they will receive by taking action and positively encourage your reader to act upon it! 

Ask A Question That Provokes Thought

Where and when it is possible for you, in your conclusion ask your readers thought provoking questions that get their old grey matter going!. 

For Any Particular Niche Site "now that you have learned "XYZ" what are you going to do with this new knowledge?"

General Question To Ask In the Digital Marketing Sphere "Do you really, believe that the "so called gurus" have a bunch of secrets they are not telling you?"

General Question For Any Niche "If you learned and knew this a few of years ago in what way would you be living a much better life?"

Question For Any Blogging Niche: "which one of the points that you have learned this article are you going to try first and why?"

Demand Your Reader To Take Action

This is exactly what you want your reader to do and you have to tell them clearly what it is that you want them to do and how. 

Pretty much every time it is to click your link, buy something, make a comment, join your list or take some kind of social action. 

How To Write A Conclusion - The Conclusion

Here we are, ironic as it sounds, this is a conclusion to an article that is about conclusions!

Keep in mind that to write a good compelling conclusions you should:

• Highlight the main points and key parts to what you wish your audience to learn from the article and just giving a quick and brief recap. 

• Give your readers a gentle reminder of what it was that you taught them & why.
