* * * *Although holiday
writing and writing about special events are great, evergreen content
tends to have that staying power.
Have you considered
that people always want to know how to make something, or how to
deal with a certain problem, or as you may be doing now how to find
out more information about content?
* * Articles that have evergreen content will definitely stay around much longer than other content.
You might ask yourself, “Will this article still be interesting 7 months from now?” “How to articles and videos” can be evergreen content. I just recently looked up a “how to make recipe.”

You might ask yourself, “Will this article still be interesting 7 months from now?” “How to articles and videos” can be evergreen content. I just recently looked up a “how to make recipe.”
1. Staying Power
According to
wordstream.com evergreen content continues to
be relevant long past its publication. In addition they suggest that
“how to tutorials or even videos should be considered in helping
content last longer. This does make sense because people generally
always want to know how to make something, or how to deal with a
certain problem, or as you may be doing now how to find out more
information about a specific content.
2. Creating Content
What is the big
question for creating Evergreen Content? According to Kevan at
blogbufferapp.com it is, “Will people still read this and think
it's interesting a year from now?” I agree. If you observe Kevan wrote this particular article in 2012. Now hear I
am in 2018 referencing from it, because this is good information that
apparently has been around since and before that time.
3. Updating
Although you may
write evergreen content, it does not mean that it will last forever.
Content like everything else needs to be updated from time to time,
according to Al Gomez at the Contentmarketing Institute. We are
living in a fast pace society.
4. Evergreen
Content
A few subjects for
evergreen content may include, Jesus, blogging, health, DIY projects,
or possibly social media.
* * * Jesus is a subject that I am sure will never become obsolete, because there are many that hold dear to their faith in Him.
Now health is something that most are always looking for ways to improve the quality of. How many of you always have some type of project going such as home improvements? Our houses only get better, if we improve them. Now social media has been around for a long time and seemingly it is growing. Facebook is one of the biggest social media but as my granddaughter has said to me, “Facebook is for old folks 30 and older.” She says,”Instagram is where it is at.” I replied, “Oh really.” I guess different strokes for different folks. There is some type of social media platform here for everyone.

I really like
Pinterest. When I first started I did not have a clue as to what I
was doing, but I found great content, great “how to's” and I
learned along the way. In fact, I am still learning. So keep in
mind I am not saying to stop writing about Christmas or Independence
Day, just keep in mind that you want the content you write to have a
long shelf life. You want your content to be viable for years and
years.

I completely agree. Evergreen topics mean continued blog traffic. Great post! Mimi
This is the 2nd time I heard about Evergreen blogging. Now I understand what that is. I think I have written a lot of Evergreen articles in Hubpages. Thanks for sharing.
I've never heard the term "evergreen blogging"! Learned something new today! Thanks for sharing at The Blogger's Pit Stop! Roseann from www.thisautoimmunelife.com
Thanks Roseann.
Great suggestions!
Been working on having more evergreen content myself! Hope you have a blessed day~

This is something that I try and keep in mind but often fail at. I look back at some of my older posts that I'd like to re-share and realize that they need updating to still be applicable #anythinggoes
Jeremy updating can be good too. Thanks for stopping by.
Thanks Melanie. You have a blessed day also.
I do a mixture of evergreen and time relevant blogging. I think that they both have their place.
Awesome Dr.Cohen Ho.
