Are you interested in starting a blog for your medical practice or facility? Or do you currently have one but aren’t sure if it’s effective? Blogs can be a very effective way of building your brand and attracting new patients, but it’s important to understand how medical blogging works and how to do it correctly. The practice of blogging in general has evolved tremendously over the past several years, and medical blogs, in particular, are subject to certain considerations.
If you want your blog to be successful, you should determine the answers to several key questions before you start writing your first post. Who is your blog for, what exactly do you hope to accomplish with it, and who will write your medical content?
We have come up with a complete Guide that will help you to write effective Medical blogs:
Before you start writing your blog, it’s important to understand exactly who you’re writing for. The information you present and the tone you adopt will vary greatly depending on your target audience.
Once you know your audience, you can start determining which topics are most important to them. When trying to create a list of topics, the best place to start is often your existing patients. If you’re someone with direct patient contact, you are likely hearing the same questions from many of your patients.
Once you have your topic,(s) you may find it helpful to create a rough outline. Google Trends can help with this as well. Another useful exercise is to simply type your topic into Google and see what comes up. Review the top-ranking blogs.
In health blog writing, it’s especially important to be accurate. You cannot make false medical claims or any guarantees about outcomes. You cannot promise that your services or treatments will cure any condition or disease. It’s also important to provide trustworthy, peer-reviewed sources.
Adding graphics, images and videos can also help break up your content. When presenting statistics, include a chart or graph to provide a visual representation. People process information differently and giving your readers different options will help make your content accessible to a wider audience. Consider filming a short video that presents many of the key points in your content by using bullet points or other graphics.
