Guideline on Writing Quality Content

First of all, learn how to make your first article here. Writing great content can be daunting if you are not familiar with the guidelines. Therefore, you need to have the knowledge of a standard essay writing. However, following the guidelines below will make you a great content writer.

1. List Creation

After you must have grasp all the information you will need for your article, list them out. This will give you the chance of a better structure of your content. Also, it will help you know what your content should cover.

2. Title

Be creative about your TITLE. Put readers in your shoe and put title that is inviting. Also, it is important to know that the length of your article affects both your readers and search engine crawlers. Try to always use title between 35 – 55 characters long (spaces included).

3. Introductory Paragraph

You should start off the article with an introduction of the subject of the matter. Usually before the first image. This will not only give you an edge in grading your content but also enhancing your SEO. Although, the introductory paragraph is not very important, but it goes a long way in all perspectives.

4. Subheadings

Your article will be harder to read when it lacks subheadings. Employ the use of subheadings like h2, h3, or h4 headings in your article. It is important to note that BOLD TEXTS do not mean subheading, you have to manually change your subheadings to their respective heading tags.

Also note that the words following each of your subheadings should not be more than 300 words.

Also, always try including the subject of the article in at least one or two subheadings. This will both make the article easier to read while it affect the SEO positively.

5. Paragraphs

Creating good content will really depend on how well you construct your paragraphs. Your paragraphs should always be less than 200 words. Keep this in mind at all times.

6. Sentences

It is most note worthy to always write short sentences. Ideally, between 10 to 20 words. Sentence that contains more than 20 words lowers the quality of your content.

7. Signal or Transition Words

Guide your readers by using plenty of signal words (also known as transition words). Signal words point out the connection between your sentences and paragraphs. Permit me to call them connector because they help your readers link your points up.

Words like; also, furthermore, in addition etc tell your readers you are enumerating.

Type of relation Examples of transition words
Summarizing and, first of all, also, another, furthermore, finally, in addition
cause because, so, due to, while, since, therefore
comparison same, less, rather, while, yet, opposite, much as, either
conclusion as a result, hence, consequently, therefore, in conclusion
fuzzy signals seems like, maybe, probably, almost
emphasis most of all, most noteworthy, especially relevant

Finally, the more you use transition words, the better the quality of your content.

8. Passive tense

If you want to write an article which is easy to read, avoid passive voice as much as possible. Furthermore, reading sentences with many passive tense are too hard.

Passive voice occurs if the noun or noun phrase that would be the object of an active sentence appears as the subject of a sentence with passive voice.

9. Image size

The size of the image used as the FEATURED IMAGE is very crucial to how organize your articles appear on social networks. Since many developers make use of first image as featured image when you forget to manually set featured image, its important to note the size. Therefore, let your image size be around 5:3 ratio. Finally, make sure none of the size of your image is less than 300px. Some publishers will argue this, but I know for certain it is quite rewarding effort.

10. Content length

Ideally, a standard article should be, at least, 600 words. However, the minimum word count for pillar content tends to be non-static depending on the niche. Its best to put it from a thousand minimum word count.

Conclusion

In conclusion, making use of the above guidelines will help you to write quality content. Albeit, will require your time and patience. It is also important to let your creativity play out in its full force when creating quality content.
