Anatomy of an Effective Blog Post | information analyst | Scoop.it

A successful blog post follows specific rules. 


Rule #1: Catchy headline. Without it, you won't get far. Not many people will want to read past your title if you don't make it compelling. 


Rule #2: Visual content. There was a time when blogging without image was a common thing. Not anymore. Pictures, videos, and infographics help entice readers.


Rule #3: Short paragraphs. 75 words maximum.
