six red hot tips to get your articles read
There are many people who dread having to write papers or articles. Many
just feel like it seems to be too much work and it all just goes to waste
when no one reads it. To some people, reading articles seems like work
especially if the article is boring and very bland.
Well, articles are supposed to be read, that's their purpose to impart your
message and information. If it is not read then it is a waste of time and
effort.
But all the same, articles have to be written to be read. It's just a matter
of making them good. Making a good article doesn't have to be strenuous and
straining. There are just some points needed to be reminded of, and some
guides to follow.
Once you get the hang of it, writing articles could be fun, as well as
profitable for you and your site.
Of course, writing articles must be about something you know about, that's
why if you own a site, you probably are knowledgeable about that certain
topic and theme. When you write about it, you wont have a hard time because
you already know what it is and what it's about. It's just a matter of
making your articles creative and interesting.
To make sure that your articles get read and are enjoyed, here are six red
hot tips to get your articles read. These tips will make your articles
readable and interesting.
1) Use short paragraphs. When the paragraph are very long, the words get
jumbled in the mind of the reader just looking at it can get quite confusing
and too much of a hard work to read. The reader will just quickly disregard
the paragraph and move on to much easier reading articles that are good to
look at as well as read. Paragraphs can be a single sentence, sometimes even
a single word!
2) Make use of numbers or bullets. As each point is stressed out, numbers
and bullets can quickly make the point easy to remember and digest. As each
point, tip, guide or method is started with a bullet or point, readers will
know that this is where the tips start and getting stressed. Format you
bullets and numbers with indentations so that your4 article wont look like a
single block of square paragraphs. Add a little bit of flair and pizzazz to
your articles shape.
3) Use Sub-headings to sub-divide your paragraphs in the page. Doing this
will break each point into sections but still would be incorporated into one
whole article. It would also be easy for the reader to move on from one
point to another; the transition would be smooth and easy. You will never
lose your readers attention as well as the point and direction to where the
article is pointing.
4) Provide a good attention-grabbing title or header. If your title can
entice a persons curiosity you're already halfway in getting a person to
read your article. Use statements and questions that utilize keywords that
people are looking for. Provide titles or headers that describe your
articles content but should also be short and concise.
Use titles like, Tips on making her want you more, or How to make her swoon
and blush .You could also use titles that can command people, for example,
Make her yours in six easy Ways. These types of titles reach out to a
persons emotions and makes them interested.
5) Keep them interested from the start to the finish. From your opening
paragraph, use real life situations that can be adopted by the reader. Use
good descriptions and metaphors to drive in your point, just don't over do
it. Driving your examples with graphic metaphors and similes would make it
easy for them to imagine what you are talking about. Making the experience
pleasurable and enjoyable for them.
6) Utilize figures when necessary and not just ordinary and insipid
statements. Using specific facts and figures can heighten your article
because it makes it authoritative. But do not make it too formal, it should
be light and easy in them and flow. Like a friendly teacher having a little
chat with an eager student.
