Carol Tice the author of Make a Living Writing blog wrote an interesting post called 40 Simple Writing Tweaks for Better Blog Post. The first thing she addressed was the headline. You have to make your headline intriguing enough for your reader to not glance over it but to want to click on it to learn more.
I openly admit, “I’m a newbie blogger!” There I said it. Phew, I feel better. The question is how do I improve my blogging skills? I can immediately incorporate the author’s tip of improving my headline to attract the curious web surfer to my blog for starters. That is not all, though.
An enticing headline is the tip but I need to go a step further with clever search engine optimizing (SEO) words linked to my headline. She pointed out that headlines are dangling in cyberspace and should represent your blog post. Hmm, I’ve got that now!
Personally speaking, I see the relevance to these valuable tips as a web surfer and I dare say you can relate as well. 40 Simple Writing Tweaks for Better Blog Post is worth the read. I’m hoping Ms. Tice’s tips can turn this greenhorn into a polished pro in Blogosphere!
