Infographic: How to write a perfect blog post
Writing anything is hard, much less a blog post that you want thousands of people to read, comment on and share. Lucky for you, this guide can help.
My first experience writing on deadline occurred when I was in third grade.
My class and I had to learn not only how to write five-paragraph essays, but how to write them within a certain time limit so we could complete the writing portion of a standardized test.
At this point in our little lives, writing five paragraphs felt like churning out a novel. Plus, we had to write it all in cursive. We couldn’t imagine how we would ever survive.
Luckily, our teacher had a brightly colored poster on the classroom wall (that she unfortunately took down during the test) with a picture of a hamburger. The hamburger represented the outline we had to follow to write a good five-paragraph essay.
The top bun represented the introduction paragraph, the lettuce, tomato and hamburger patty represented the three supporting points, and the bottom bun represented the conclusion.
Though I don’t have a friendly hamburger poster that will help you write better blog posts, this infographic from Salesforce does the job.
