Ever sat down to write a blog post and thought, “Where do I even start?” Don’t worry, you’re not alone. Luckily, Dan Shewan at WordStream has already mapped out a foolproof plan to make blog writing way less intimidating, in his casual and humorous style. Here’s the breakdown of his five simple steps:
Step 1: Planning – Every great post starts with a game plan.
Step 2: Write your headline – Grab attention with something catchy.
Step 3: Draft your post – Spill your ideas onto the page, messy first drafts are totally okay.
Step 4: Add images – A picture (or GIF) really does say a thousand words.
Step 5: Edit your blog post – Polish it up until it shines.
That’s it! Five steps and you’re well on your way to writing something readers will actually want to click on (and finish).
