How to optimize a blog post to entice people to click on your Triond article link.
In my last article, A Triond Article Earning Secret, I discussed the concept of leveraged viewing and how you can use an established blog to put your Triond articles in front of hundreds of blog subscribers and followers.
Today, I’m going to discuss how to effectively do this. While you can simply link to your Triond articles and you should do so at every opportunity, it’s a good idea to take it a couple of steps further. You’ll want to create blog posts that encourage readers to actually continue reading by clicking on links to your Triond articles.
Creating Effective Blurbs That Lead in to Your Triond Articles
- Sign in to your blog and think about a Triond article you want to link to
- Go to the Triond article and grab the article link, then open the article for later reference
- Swing over to your blog and type in anchor text and embed your article link. Drop it down on the page.
- Now, you want to create a blurb that does double-duty as a blog post, while enticing readers to click through to your Triond article to learn more. Write approximately 100 words that outline the benefits or interesting information contained in your Triond article. When you feel you have stirred readers’ interest, backspace the anchor text with the embedded link. You could write: “Learn more:” beside the link. Notice how I’ve done this at my blog Grandma’s Kitchen in my blurb, Grandma’s Perfectly Shaped Bread Buns
- Find a picture and include it in your blog post.
- At the bottom of your post, you can also add additional Triond article links
Crafting a blurb in this fashion does far more to attract and engage readers’ attention.
In sum: Use effective blog blurbs to point readers to your Triond articles.
* In my third article in this series, A Third Triond Article Earning Secret, I discuss why effective article blurbs can help you to earn income two ways.

Very good point. I use this method to promote Triond articles on my website with a slight addition. I place the article title (linked to the article) and description inside a blockquote, and then format the blockquote so that it appears as a box. That way, even if the reader doesn’t read the entire blog post their eye is attracted to box, so promoting the most important element – the article.

Hi Peter,
It makes sense to make our blogs do double-duty.

I wrote a pillar post and linked to two of my Triond articles! I learned about the benefits of them and take advantage of them by using my own content to convey my points!
