How to get started

1. Identify the reader

Define who the post is for and what question they want answered.

2. Choose a specific angle

Make the title and promise clear rather than covering an overly broad topic.

3. Create a useful outline

Organise the introduction, main sections, examples and conclusion in a logical order.

4. Add original value

Include accurate examples, practical details and insights that genuinely help the reader.

5. Edit and verify

Check facts, links, readability, spelling and whether the post fulfils its title's promise.

Example

A post about preparing for an exam could include a realistic revision schedule, ways to practise questions and a checklist for the day before the exam.
