Do you have problems when trying to come up with content for articles? Is writers block becoming a very real reality for your online progress? This article will cover a few article writing tips that I was taught when starting out.
Offer Value
The first of the article writing tips I'm going to cover today is value over empty content. There's no point churning out content for the sake of it - maybe you are behind on your website posts or you are looking for a cheap back link. Poor content is poor content and that will always reflect on you!
You must offer the traffic to your article some sort of value so that they spread the word. Maybe they will promote it on social media, maybe they will syndicate it for their own website or maybe they will recommend it to a friend.
Communicate
Stringing sentence after sentence together is not going to cut it - you need to engage and communicate with the reader. This is one of the most important article writing tips I have come across!
You do not at any time want your article appear as some sort of sales copy whatsoever. You want the article to have a structure and read through naturally, this takes us to the next section......
Structure
Most article writing tips should work around structure - once you have a structure in place it is much easier to write and produce work.
I was always taught that the introduction and conclusion to an article were pretty much the same. Sounds a little strange bit it does make sense when you examine why!
You start off an article letting the reader know what the article's aims are and what you will be covering within the chosen topic. With the conclusion you will be going over the aims of the article and all the points you covered in the mid section of the article.
I find this is a good way of concentrating the good data or 'good information' into a couple of paragraphs in the centre of the article. People don't want you rambling on as they are there looking for an answer for their query. Give them what they are looking for earlier on in the article so that you do not lose them. By satisfying the visitor there is a lot more of a chance they will read through the entire article.
Practice Makes Perfect
All the article writing tips in the world will not help you unless you are prepared to put the effort into your technique. By trail and error you will improve your writing skill and your writing speed.
The first article I wrote was actually for Street Articles ( this site! ) and it took me about three hours in all. Back then I had no article writing tips to go on and very little confidence. The more I wrote the more got published and my confidence grew!
