Write Website Content

Look at why writing should not scare you. When you begin to write website content, do not worry about form, style or grammar. Do not worry if you don’t know all that you desire to know. The information here will help you get started.

You should also take the Netwriting Master Course, discussed below.

For now, simply start writing content for your website by getting what you know on paper. Use a text editor or word processor if those tools are comfortable for you.

Do not worry about grammar, sentence structure, or the like. Simply get started. If you prefer to think of this as practice, that's fine.

Hey, don’t worry about what you should write/type first. In fact, you do not have to start by writing complete sentences. Simply write down your ideas about what you want to write.

Then, under each idea write a little something about what you know of the subject.

If you simply do not believe that you can write website content, use that as a challenge.

You can learn something about writing, while at the same time following the above suggestion of getting your ideas on paper. You will discover that learning to write website content is not that difficult.

In fact, forcing your mind to learn how to write is also a great way to start exercising your mind.

Now, do this short exercise to discover for yourself how easy it is to start writing content for a web page.

Look at the above information. Start at the top – the very first sentence.

All you see are a series of short sentences and paragraphs expressing a series of ideas. Isn’t that right?

Look again.

Pretend each sentence is one under the other. Rewrite them if necessary, one under the other.

Do you see it now?

Look below. The sentences are one under the other - rewritten for you.

  1. Look at why writing should not scare you.
  2. When you begin to write website content, do not worry about form, style or grammar.
  3. Do not worry if you don’t know all that you desire to know.
  4. If you do not know how to write website content, don’t worry.

  17. You will discover that learning to write website content is not that difficult.
  18. In fact, forcing your mind to learn how to write is also a great way to start exercising your mind.

Each of the above sentences expresses an idea. Then, the ideas are strung together into paragraph to express a concept.

Analyze the information. There are...
9 -- Paragraphs
18 -- Sentences
2.2 -- Average number of sentences per paragraph
12.4 -- Average number of words per sentence
4.3 -- Average number of characters per word
5.4 -- Flesh-Kincaid grade level

Anyone can do what you see. You probably speak more than 2.2 sentences each time you talk to a friend or relative.

Note that the words are not big or complicated words. There is only an average of 4.3 characters per word. Of course, probably everyone surfing the net can read at a fifth or sixth grade level.

Add a dictionary and thesaurus as writing aids. Add your personality, flair, and angle of approach and you are in business. You are starting to write website content.

By the way, do you "see" the personality or unique voice of this website? Do you see the flair, and angle of approach?

I would say that the unique voice in this instance is that of a coach and motivator. The flair and angle of approach is informal and a can-do, anyone can do it attitude.

What do you think? You are the judge.

When I first started to write website content, I wrote at a grade level above 10 or 11. The recommended number is below nine or eight.

Click here to see a web page just over 500 words with a Flesh-Kincaid grade under eight.

This page (the one you are reading now) has over 1200 words with a grade under seven.

Yes, in the beginning it takes a little practice to get your ideas to flow one into the other. With practice, you learn to keep sentences short and to the point. You learn to write for the average web surfer.

Of course, if your market is the PhD type person, you should write website content accordingly.

Confidence Comes With Action

So, if you need help to write website content, let's get started by downloading to your computer a great Free course - The Netwriting Masters Course.

Do not let the name scare you. This great little 50-page course will open your eyes, and benefit you immensely toward writing content for your website. You have nothing to loose.

The Netwriting Masters Course is free to download, study and print, if you want to print it.

Read the following excerpt taken from the book:

"Formal writing training is not necessary. You just need an easy-to-follow method and a few proven tools and strategies that work."

And,

"Whether you have minimal or extensive Net experience, you will profit from the information provided in this course. Anyone can benefit from this course. Please feel free to share it with family, friends or colleagues -- anyone you know who wants to "do" business on the Net.

The Netwriting Masters Course is a "work-at-your-own-pace" course. Some of you will be able to devote large blocks of time to it. Others may only have 15-30 minutes per day to spend on it. Either way, it does not matter how long it takes you to complete the course. Set aside a certain amount of time per day to follow this course and to do your homework. You'll find it was time well, no best, spent as you refine your Netwriting skills and become a successful e-persuader."

Remember, as you write you also continue to study and learn your subject matter. You are developing a great mental habit.

Developing any habit (whether good or bad) takes time, and the good habit you are developing is worth the time and effort.
