How to write a great post!

Here are 8 rules to follow when writing blog posts:

  1. Always use descriptive title that reveals the point of the article without further reading.
  2. Use images, video, sub-titles, lists, examples, colors, italics and bold to cheer up the content and make it easier to share with others.
  3. Do not make your content very long, as it can bore the reader - unless it is a requirement due to the nature of the task. If the subject is long break it into different sections. It is easier to read this way.
  4. Remember you are writing to share your work with others - make it your best work.
  5. Always acknowledge other peoples ideas you have used.
  6. Spell-check and draft your work before posting.
  7. Know the guidelines set by the teacher for writing on your blog.
  8. When commenting respond in a constructive manner to others work - explain what could be improved or if you disagree with their ideas but not in a way that is rude or puts them down.
