I will try to help in avoiding five common mistakes that would make an article look like useless. Bette try to avoid doing them…
1- Article Summary’s Being Insignificant
Writing an article summary is probably one of the most important key factors for the article. If a reader go through with a summary to reach the article then you need to be at least same succesful by writing the summary as writing the article, may be even more. Try to take writing the article summary asan invitation to the article and make it attractive. Try not to make it look like an advertisement or promotion but a well explained of facts that is mentioned in the article.
2- Too Much Promotion in the Article
If you are trying to promote a product or trying to do it in a way, don’t make it that obvious even if all the things you think to write is true. Too much promotion smelling facts will probably push the reader away and it might make you article look like an advertisement which nobody is really interested nowadays that much. If the main aim is to promote a product in the article, do it slowly and try to show it’s pros in a conversational way.
3- Spelling and Grammatical Errors
No need to say much here. The article should contain no errors spelling and grammer wise. If so, even the article includes the most valuable informations in it, those errors will make them distrustful. The one will probably say “How to read and trust the article if the writer doesn’t care about writing properly?”. That’s right…
4- Plagiarizing
There is nothing wrong in researching on the internet and influenced by an other article or a writer. You need to be aware of the thin line. You can of course write about the same subject but you should try to avoid using the same words or phrases in an other article. This is not OK ethic wise and also might damage your search engine rankings in a bad way if you do have a duplicated content.
5- Overloaded Resource Box
It is good to have a resource box at the end of the article. That will help the reader to reach to you via e-mail and/or website and will help your online reputation. A resource box with active links might also boost your search engine results in a good way. The thing is you should keep it simple. Just write things about yourself if necessary, the contact ways you want to be reached and may be few more words about your occupation. Never have a resource box that has like 10 lines long. Nobody would probably read it anyway if it’s that long and not relevant.
