Adding a personal touch to a blog post helps with many things, such as connecting to your reader and bringing light to what your trying to communicate. Just like in social media platforms you aim to reach your target audiences and ultimately engage with them! Within a post there's a goal to either persuade, inform, reveal, discuss, etc., and so having a personal touch helps execute this goal.
Connecting plays a key role in accomplishing any of these goals as well! People should be able to relate to what you are posting about. Either they are seeking an adventure for new ideas or to improve something they already have. A personal touch helps with emotions like making them feel warm and fuzzy about this new adventure! A reader may not even have interest in what your post is about, though a personal touch could intrigue them to open your post and read on! I don't see when it would not be a good time to incorporate a "personal touch" to your post. Anytime is good, because for every post there is always opportunity! What do you think?
I like your new background! I haven't been to your blog in a while. I agree, connecting with the reader on a personal level is essential to maintain their interest and engagement.

DeleteAfter reading your post I can see you have a great outlook on communicating with people on a personal level. I think your personality really comes through in your writing which should help you.
ReplyDeleteAw thanks! I do hope so! We should convey individualism and realistic POVs. I think this way it helps the reader know and understand we are like them! :)
DeleteOr just altogether human and not a computer speaking to them! Haha
