Top 10 Blog Writing Tips
Patsi Krakoff and Denise Wakeman have teamed up to create blogging classes and marketing services for independent professionals. They interviewed me for a blogging book that will be available soon.
In their article Top 10 Blog Writing Tips, they offer the tips below (and more) for publishing great blog content that attracts prospects and clients in your niche market.
- Write with the reader in mind.
- Make it valuable and worthwhile.
- Proof-read for typos and glaring grammatical errors.
- Keep it short and simple.
- Keep it lively, make it snappy and snazzy.
- Link often.
- Use keywords often.
- Write clearly (short sentences, only one concept per sentence).
- Write like you talk.
- Use a clear headline, and don't be afraid to make bold statements (but don't mislead people either).
