What are the traits of a good writer? Why is there a huge difference in the first blog you wrote maybe 3 years ago and the one that you wrote today? Yes, over the time you have improved your writing and have maintained your readership but how it feels when it comes to writing daily. For the first time bloggers, it is going to be the toughest part. Some of them may quit after they run out of topic. Others may find it like “Ok I must carry on with writing as I was very much enthusiast before starting my blog”. Well they are able to do a little longer than those who have set aback but unfortunately with the passage of time they are going to quit too.
Let’s have a look at the tips that can make you a better writer, even if you are a newbie.
Write as Much as You Can
Even if you are out of topic you must write as much as you can. Whether you are travelling, sitting in your bedroom or watching television, come up with the ideas. Observe the world around you, look different people, see something unusual, analyze the things out of the box and come up with an idea. Note down the idea on a small notepad or your tablet. Make sure to write two to three ideas daily on your notepad and begin writing after you find it comfortable and soothing environment. Read books on different subjects, search for the articles and follow the groups and discussions to interact different people.
Make it Attractive and Useful
No one will ever read your stuff unless you have made it attractive and attention grabber. For example if you are writing a story about a young girl who lives downtown you may not start with the girl directly. Sketch the view of her house, family background, people living in her neighborhood and so on. It all depends on you, how you make it different and attractive to the readers.
Keep Short and Simple
Most of the people think that using difficult words and jargon will present them as a good writer. But the fact is that no one will ever get to your blog or website again. Use simple language, keep it concise and make sure to use short sentences. Explain the useful points in bullet form and headings while you can also use short paragraphs for writing a story. The simpler it is, the more it will get easy for readers to understand.
Writing for Niche
Online businesses have grown gigantically in recent years. Writing for such websites can be easy as well as difficult. Knowing the problems of people, what they are seeking and what kind of topics can solve their specific problems should be your main objective. Like if you are writing for electronics store, you can write some tips, buying guide, saving guidelines and news that can be useful for readers.
Write in Casual Style
Even though you sometime need to write in formal style, but for me it is advisable to write it in casual style. Just think of the day to day conversation with your friends, colleagues and family. How do you communicate with them and what is your style of talking. Come up with same style in your writing and you will see a much better response from your readers.
