8 Tips to Make Your Contents Stand Out Of the Crowd


Good content is soul for blog, because it what make the blog alive. I admitted that I don't have many good contents on my blog but at least I know now several tips how to make your content stand out of the crowd.


1. Write an eye catching title. Your title is your front door. This is the entry path of your article, your reader will decide to read it or not after they read its title. If your title is an eye catching sentence, you can be sure that your reader will read the whole article or even make a comment about it.

2. Summarize the topic in first paragraph. You should explain what the article is about on the opening paragraph, because it will be informed on throughout the article. In some case the opening paragraph make the readers understand the main idea of the article that you've written.

3. Don't write it too short and too long. Use the appropriate amount of words for your articles. Although there are no minimum requirements but most good articles have between 300-750 hundred words. If you have a topic that has to write in a long word, you should split the article into 2 or 3 part (or larger). After all your readers won't read your posts all day long aren't them? They just want to get the information they need and move on with their daily live.

4. Write it like telling a story. You have to write your article as you are telling a story to your friend. It will set friendly environment to your readers, and they will lightly understand the topic that you are trying to inform.

5. Write for human not for robot. As you know there is a SEO tips saying about keywords density. It means that your main keyword of your article topic should be mentioned all over your article to be considered by the search engine robot as good and relevant article. The disadvantage of it is the article will look like automatic article that produce by a machine. Write your article like you usually write, don't worry to much about the Search engine. Eventually if you produce articles which everybody looking for Search engine will notice your blog/site is important. In the end you will get high SERP (Search Engine Ranking Position) for most of your articles.

What good for robot doesn't mean it will good for human does it?

6. Use common word. You have to know your audiences first before implement it. But mostly your audiences are just ordinary people not high educational peoples. You don't have to use high sophisticated of word on your article which can make their forehead wrinkle. Just use common word that everybody using in daily live. It will make them understand more about the subject that you are trying to inform.

7. As simple as it can write. You shouldn't flood you article with too many back up story or long introduction, because it makes the readers confusing to understand the topic. Just write it as simple and light as a fifth grade journal, it will make your article easy to understand.

8. Always revise before it publishes. This is the ultimate tips that every writers should do, always check and recheck your article before you push the submit button. These are the following things you should check and revised before you published it:

Spelling and grammar, idea flow (suitability between one paragraph to another), links error, word format (bold, underline, Italic), and add images to make it more attracting.

Those are the tips that I found from anywhere on the net. As I grow my ability to write articles, my knowledge about producing good articles also grow. And I hope I will have many good contents that considered being Unique, time last and searching by larger audiences in this blog for more time to come.

I feel pleased to have your comments :

It is not true that science majors have absolute preference--when my wife was in medical school, half or more of her fellow students were not from physics, chemistry, or biology--she did geography, her best friend did French and Arabic studies, another friend was a drama major, etc.
