The content your blog contains is the most important aspect overall. You receive traffic due to what’s inside your blog. Although a nifty headline may attract visitors, it’s not the sole reason for keeping their attention. Once they’ve arrived and it’s poorly written how long do you think they’ll stay? I’d guess not long at all. How could it be the heart of your blog is poorly written, generic, lacks personality and humor? This knowledge certainly eludes a lot of individuals. So with my help hopefully I can take you from attracting visitors to keeping them. In this article I’m going to help you write an article that will keep your visitors glued and have them return with friends!
Topic Selection
Alright, the very first thing to do is select a topic. Lets try to pick a topic that you can narrow down, that will not leave doubt in the reader. When I say doubt, a topic that you can write concrete evidence on. You wouldn’t want to start a debate with your readers. Anything is possible. If you own a blog that’s within a popular niche this won’t be hard to accomplish. It definitely helps to write something that people are wanting to read.

Gotta Name?
Some will create a great headline, and write around it. Either way will work. It’s true that you need a headline that will knock your socks off! Picture this - Your searching for something specific, you would only go to a site that you feel has the best answer right? Usually that article has a clear, to the point, and accurate headline. Your headline doesn’t have to be generic, plain, or boring. It can have some spice but lets keep it simple.

Research Remaining
We have a topic to write about, now two things remain: research, and actual writing. It’s crucial from this point that you don’t slack off. If you have great content with dry writing your article will suffer. If you have a great topic with horrible research the article will be pathetic. There are many ways to accumulate content for your article. This is strongly important in which topic you choose. A topic on sports will be easier for information than on sonic waves. Wherever you receive your information, make sure you cite the source. Any information you find is copyrighted. There are many strategies for generating information ase article directories, pub, magazines, peer review sites, etc.
Dreadful Writing
This may be what you’ve been waiting for all along. The sentence arrangement, vocabulary, and word selection can make you or break you. There are two ways to increase your English. One - read. The more you read, the higher your intelligence will become. Two - write. You won’t improve on anything if you don’t practice. Whenever you write, first you should brainstorm on how you want the article to flow. Try not to jump from one subject to another - stay on point. A great way to imagine your article is like a river. A river flows, your writing should immitate it.
Everyone has their own writing style. I will not say do this, and you should expect this. You should simply write as if you were speaking about it In Elementary school I learned a valuable tip. While reading what you’ve wrote aloud, if you need to take a breath you need a period or a comma. When you write don’t be afraid to display your humor. No one wants to read a boring article. Showing that you have a personality can take your words to the next level.
Conclusion
Concluding your article you shouldn’t have a ‘The End’ or ‘in conclusion’. You should sum up what you’ve wrote, and give your opinion on everything. You could even end your article, and give hints to a similar one. This is a great way of encouraging someone to click on another article that you’ve written.
Spell Check + Proof Read
An absolute freaking must! Would you like to read an article that was misspelled, periods, and commas were out of place? Then apply your own knowledge, and do the right thing! Once you’ve finished, do it again. You may have been set on your article while writing, but reading it once more you’re bound to change anything. It could be for the best!

Title
The title should be the same as the article’s name.
Description
Your description appears below the title name. Have an interesting description will definitely help in clarifying what the blog and article is about. Having a description that’s irrelevant will falsify your article.
Keywords
You don’t want to over do it here. Keep it simple and to the point. Don’t break down every phrase, and add individual words (see below). Keep your keywords around 10 and less.
World War II is your topic. You shouldn’t have keywords like - World, War, I, II, World War, World War I, World War II.
