Readability
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 the. To
some people, reading articles seems dreadful, 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. There are just some points
needed to be reminded of, and some guides to follow. Once you get the idea 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, and also something that interests you, that’s why if you own a site, you probably are knowledgeable about
that certain topic and theme. When you write about it, you won’t 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 enjoyed, here are
some red-hot tips to get your articles read. These tips will make your articles readable and
interesting.
Originality
Put a spin on your writing. Make it your own. It's cliché, yes,
but do it! No one wants to read the same idea over and over. I know I've been somewhat guilty of it, but some rule
breaking is all right. Like talking about myself here. It's an example.
Use short paragraphs: When the paragraph is 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!
Keep It Casual
Make sure your readers aren't bored. If you're going to be
writing a long article, might as well make it fun for them to read. You don't want to read an article straight from
a science journal (unless it is a science journal), and even then, it should still be somewhat casual. I've seen
some science articles that are interesting because of how it's written.
Grammar
Keep the grammar casual, but still good. Do you want to sift
through a mess of spelling errors and run-on sentences trying to figure out what the author is saying? No, of
course you don't. No one does. Spell check it, grammar check it, read over it once. Make sure your readers can
understand you.
Bold Words
Bold words always help. So do lists, links, and quotes. Readers
like you can skim for the bold words they're looking for, and find what they want. It's perfect for them. Saves
time, and gets to the point.
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 your bullets and numbers with
indentations so that your article won’t look like a single block of square paragraphs. Add a little bit of flair to
your articles’ shape.
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.
Provide a good attention-grabbing title or header:
If your title can entice a person’s 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 persons’ emotions and make them interested.
Keep the readers 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 doesn’t overdo 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.
Examples
When you read an article, usually you want to see some kind of
concrete proof about something the author is talking about. If the article you're reading is a tutorial, you want
to see the end result, right? So, put it at the beginning. You don't want to have to scroll all the way down to see
what the final outcome of all your work is to decide you don't like it. Put your examples at the top to show your
readers.
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.
Conclusion
Always have an awesome conclusion that wraps it up nicely. You
always want to see that whole work of art brought together with a nice summation. So, if they want to skip that
boring article you wrote because they didn't pay attention, you can hope they'll read that nice summarized
conclusion. Like this: Make the article personal, use lots of examples and styled text to make the article easier
for the user, watch your grammar, and make the article your own and have fun with it!
