Concise Post Writing and Tips for better writing

It is said that an accountable post attracts most readers than the complex one, so when blogging always make sure that your information is relevant, understandable and it is for public interest. Because participants on blog posts are more likely to trust or believe the views, opinions and experiences being shared on your post. If your post is informative and persuasive, you're more likely to get more viewers and followers. So now I have decided to share my experience on how to write an attractive and concise post, have a look on what I have broken down below;

  • When writing your post, always make sure that you write for a single screen  --  You are advised to write for a single screen because it is found that most readers do not scroll or they are lazy to scroll, that's why your post must be understandable at first glance.

  • Always include Links and Navigation tools on your post.  --  The ease of using a blog is increased when the post has well-placed links to help users or readers to navigate around your post. And also check your out links more often to make sure that they are still active, and again this will help you to draw traffic to your posts.

  • Make sure that your background is simple and catchy.  --  Do not overload your post with fancy design make it simple, that would make it easier for the reader to go through your post.

  • One of the important things when you are owning a blog is to respect copyright.  --  Do not ever risk legal action by using copyrighted material without the permission of the author. People are being sued just for not asking permissions from the original owner, so you must be careful, do not take somebody's work or words without their permission, because it might ruin your reputation.

  • Avoid jargons.  --  Make sure your post is accountable in favour of your readers, because not everybody know English very well, so make it simple and catchy. That would definitely give them more energy to read the rest. And also use a standard spelling not a chit-chat language such as ''luv'' instead of ''love'', save these for chatting.
I hope the above mentioned tips of writing a blog post would enhance your writing skills and make you a professional blogger.

Five Tips For Public Relations Student Bloggers

For the past 2 years I have learnt that before posting on your blog, you should always think outside the box, always be consistent and also ask for ideas from your colleagues or mates.

HERE ARE 5 TIPS THAT CAN HELP YOU WRITE AN INTERESTING BLOG POST;

1. Always think outside the box.
  • Bloggers must be creative, be able to innovate, you should not be afraid to go out and look for ideas.  Avoid limiting yourself when you're brainstorming. This is the time when all ideas are welcome, no matter how silly or unworkable they sound. If you start limiting yourself during this stage of the thinking game, you aren't going to progress very far.
use your mind, do not be lazy to think

2. Understand your audience.
  • In order to be an excellent blogger, it is always good to know your readers, know what they want to know, and always post information which is relevant to their life. Love the readers you already have, do try to find new readers but spend time each day showing your current readers that you value them.http://blog.bufferapp.com/blogging-advice-forbeginners-from-16-experts

3. Pick a topic for your post.
  • Before you do anything, you need to pick a topic for your blog post, your topic must be relevant to your post, it must be short and catchy. Do a rough draft of what you are going to say.
4. Write down your sub-headings.
  • Every blog post must have sub-headings to make it easier for the reader to go through your post. Brake it into sections. Subheadings help break up large topics and pictures and give the eyes a rest. Leaving space allows the reader to feel relaxed, not rushed or overwhelmed. Try to use short paragraphs, no matter the length of the post.

5. Keep your post short.
  • Your post must be short, not more than 250 words... because most of the time readers pays attention on the first screen, they are lazy to scroll down, so to avoid that... your post must be short and simple.
