One of the most important parts of a blog is the writing. Many beginner bloggers (and even some experienced bloggers) have trouble knowing what to write and how to write it for a blog. In this post I will list 5 tips that can help you in blog writing.
- Write in short paragraphs – Text heavy blog posts are hard to read while posts with more white space are easier to skim and more likely to keep readers on the blog.
- Less is more – Never use a long word where a short one will do. If it is possible to cut a word out, always cut it out.
- Make your posts scannable – Every few paragraphs insert a sub heading. Make sentences and headlines short. Consider bulleted lists as these are easier to skim than sentences.
- Use keywords and catchy headlines – Think about what keywords people would use to search for your post and include them in the post and headlines. Make sure the keyword placement is natural and does not seem out of place. Contain whole argument in the headline.
- Edit your post – Important part of good blog writing is editing. Before hitting the publish button re-read your post and cut out the stuff you don’t need.
There’s a lot more to say about the subject, but this should be enough for a start.
