Writing style

1. The reader first

   A clear purpose and convenient communication it is like your business window must be clear and always clean, in order to provide an unimpeded view of the content to your readers.

2. Organize your thoughts

   No need for a detailed outline (the more you do, the more you lose the topic goal). But you need to know exactly what you write and say before you type or say anything. Then write all these thoughts on paper and try to arrange them in a logical order. We must avoid any idea not related to the topic.

3. Clear, Short and effective paragraphs

   Each subtitle or each paragraph must develop one idea and include many sentences, However, the blogging style is less formal and so paragraphs and sentences might be short, which helps readers to absorb and memorize effectively the information.

4. Simple and meaningful words

   There are several words that can engage your readers more to the content that you offer, here some of them:

   • You: The most powerful word, because people are ultimately interested in fulfilling their own needs.
   • Because: The more specific you are, the more credible your arguments, to answer the reason of "why" you'll need the word "because".

Provide values

2. Help readers to improve skills

   Especially for "How to" blogs, it's always to answer a question, solve a frequent problem, build projects. In this kind of blog, you start from a basic reader's knowledge point (you can provide inside your blog other resources if they are totally newbies but ideally refer to an existing blog from scratch), so clarity and effectiveness are in high demand here. Make sure to be versed with the content that you provide because this is your "motto".

3. Stay on top of events

   Is one of the effective tips to get consistent hits on your blog. When people searching for news about some special event (pandemic, plane crash, elections results...) There's a good chance your blog may come up on search (it must be well written). Try to stay informed of all about break news, use keywords to search for pieces of information, write, and post quickly.

Your readers might include your recruiter
