How to write the perfect blog post? – It is a question that most bloggers ask themselves from time to time. No one exactly knows what the perfect blog post consists of, and there are most likely too many factors involved even to be able to write one every time. However, a great blog post is a post that conveys what you want to say and also, perhaps because of it, goes viral.

After having written thousands of posts since I started Bit Rebels back in 2009, I have probably only written 100-200 that have gone viral and generated millions of views each.

Also, the second most important element of a blog post is, of course, the way you style it. Choose eye-catching images and segment your blog post so that it is easy to read.
