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.
This is good...Yes people lose interest when you gonna write a whole essay for them with jagorns, it ends up losing its meaning. And we should avoid being verbose, it disregards the interests of an audience. Keep writing Mxolisi
ReplyDeleteYaa, it doesn't take too many characters to ruin your reputation or to lose trust... so we must be careful when writing our posts
DeleteYes, I couldn't agree more with your tips. Many people really like to overload their blogs. You'd find that the blog is too busy to even read. People must understand that sometimes simple and classic is the way to go.
ReplyDeleteYou can overload it with the gadgets, but your background must always look simple. Do not confuse your readers.
