(1) I bought a book and improved my "blog face," and the blog got better! 😊 [Name & Profile Section Edition] (Blog)

*This article contains some advertising links.

I started Note this October. Thanks to everyone, I'm enjoying writing it.
However, my PV count and the number of "likes" aren't growing much. It's a bit sad 😢

There must be a reason for this.

So, I bought a book and decided to study "how to write on Note" 😺

1. The book I purchased: "20 Things You Should Do on Note Before Starting Monetization: Don't Let 100 Likes End as a Dream!"

I purchased a book titled "20 Things You Should Do on Note Before Starting Monetization: Don't Let 100 Likes End as a Dream!"

Kuromega-san, who used to be a book editor, wrote it, so the perspective is sharp, as expected. The content is also easy to understand.

Although it says "monetization," since it's about what to do "before" starting, it is full of basic tips, such as how to decide on a title.

The point that it's important to be conscious of "what you can make the reader read" rather than "what you want to write" ☝️
was very educational.

2. Let's improve the name and profile section!

I decided to start with the easy part and attempt to improve my name and profile section. It's the face of the blog, so it's the most important part.

(1) Previous name and profile section

[Points to improve (referencing the book)]
・The name is long (4-5 characters is best!) ・The profile section is centered on "my background" (write
"what kind of things you make people read" for the reader) ・The profile section is cluttered (
it's best if the content you share can be guessed at a glance)

(2) I improved it like this!

[Points improved]
・Shortened the name. ・Added breaks to the profile section and made the text cleaner. ・Since the content I want to share is

"the experience of struggling with not being able to accept depression and how I overcame it", I changed the content so that it can be guessed immediately.

(3) Self-evaluation

It's simple, easy to see, and the content I want to share has become easier to understand.

*Postscript) I have further improved it to my current name and photo 👇 I was conscious of friendliness and clarity. I am making changes little by little.

3. Summary: The reader's perspective is truly important!

The reader's perspective is important!
This is a phrase you often see when running a blog.

The same thing was written in the book by the famous blogger Hitode, whom I use as a reference.

However, "easier said than done" is the reality.

That is because we tend to drift toward "talking about ourselves."

Since it is your own blog, that is perfectly fine, but if your page views don't grow, your motivation will drop.

Therefore, be more conscious of "what I can have the reader read" rather than "what I want to write."

I think this is the important part.

Regarding the name and profile section, I felt that
•making it simpler
• making the content easier to understand
really improves the "face of the blog" all at once.

If you all keep these things in mind, the "face of your blog" will improve all at once.

Let's make improvements little by little and enjoy our Note life together.
