The Reasons Nobody Reads Your Writing

Revealing my thoughts

Photo by Nicholas Barbaros on Unsplash

Reading is tiring.

It’s tiring and all the other activities a human can do in his day.

The only “restoring” activity is sleeping.

That means when you make it hard for your reader to read. He just won’t read…

That hard truth you should understand.

But what are the factors that make you lose your readers?

Lack of Clarity

Your writing is a message to your readers. It Should be as clear as possible. Writing 10 ideas in one story is not a good strategy to establish…

Imagine two cups one with muddy water and the other with clear water.

We all know you will choose the clear one.

Same with writing, if your reader is lost :

How do you want him to keep reading you?

Here are some tips :

  • Answer Your title
  • One Idea per story
  • Give value

Ignoring Your Metrics

Metrics are something to check. Not obsessively every hour but check them once a week.

Not your total reads and views or earnings.

No.

Check each story metric, and understand what your readers love. Analyse.

If a story didn’t do well that should bring your attention to it.

What’s wrong?

The title? The story itself? The idea ??

Asking those questions could be helpful. You will write what your audience loves reading.

Writing to everyone is writing to nobody

Sounds scary right?

That’s a fact.

If you try to write for everyone you’ll end up writing for nobody because it simply doesn’t work.

It’s like trying to be a rapper, rocker, metal player, and classic music compositor at the same time.

You just can’t.

The moment you understand that you will succeed. By this, I mean building an audience. An audience is made of people with common interests in your writing, and in what you have to say.

If you are writing about everything you will just lose your readers.
