With so much information on the Internet, there are always a shortlist of sites that you find yourself returning to time and time again. BBC News and BBC Sport are permanent bookmarks for me, and in terms of design, Smashing Magazine and SixRevisions sit loud and proud as RSS feeds on my Firefox browser.
SixRevisons published a very nice article on the 17th March 2010 about writing articles for the web.
How to Write an Amazing Article by James Costa summarises a number of key features of a sucessful post and is an example of the points he raises.
‘Content is king’, ‘know your audience’ and writing with an engaging style are all common sense principles that are all too easy to forget. Similarly, I’ve posted before about keeping things short, sweet and punchy and never to assume people will read your posts if you write essays rather than posts or articles.
An excellent resource, I encourage all to read this and enjoy the SixRevisons website.
