[EzineArticles Training] Basic Paragraph Structure

EzineArticles Logo Chalkboard
Training Series
Article Writing - Paragraph & Grammar Structure
Basic Paragraph Structure

Hello Training Series Member,

Here is the first edition of the EzineArticles.com Article Writing: Paragraph and Grammar Structure Training Series.

Merriam-Webster Definition of "Paragraph": A paragraph is a subdivision of a written composition that consists of one or more sentences and deals with one point or gives the words of one speaker.

Topic Sentence: A topic sentence is the first sentence of your paragraph. It should be the most general sentence in a paragraph and should introduce the overall idea that you want to discuss later in the paragraph. Indentation of the first word in your topic sentence is no longer needed.
  • Example: Suppose that you want to write a paragraph about article marketing. The topic sentence leading your paragraph might look like this:

    "Writing dozens, hundreds or even thousands of articles and making
    them available for distribution is one of the best ways to ensure that
    your website gets surges in traffic over the long-haul."

    - Christopher Knight, CEO, EzineArticles.com

    Note: The topic sentence introduces the topic in a general manner and sets up the rest of the paragraph for detail-oriented sentences. When a reader reads a topic sentence, a question should usually appear in the reader's mind. In this case, the question should be "Why" and the reader should expect that the rest of the paragraph will give an answer to this question.

Supporting Sentences: Supporting sentences must "support" or explain the idea expressed in the topic sentence. Details are important to help your reader understand exactly what you are writing about. It should answer the question posed by your topic sentence.
  • Example: Your supporting sentences for your paragraph about article marketing might look like this:

    "When you put your articles into distribution (meaning you submit
    them to ezine publishers and the article sites that ezine publishers
    visit for fresh content), you increase your chances of getting
    picked up as supplemental content by ezine publishers. They take
    your article and send it to their email newsletter membership or
    add it to their website."

    - Christopher Knight, CEO, EzineArticles.com

    Note: Most paragraphs have 5-7 supporting sentences. If writing about a strategy or giving tips or list items, bulleted or numbered lists can be helpful here instead of full supporting sentences.

Concluding Sentence: The concluding sentence usually occurs at the end of a paragraph and summarizes the information presented in the paragraph. It is similar to, but not exactly the same as the topic sentence.
  • Example: Your concluding sentence for your paragraph about article writing might look like this:

    "The article writing labor investment and distribution submission can
    pay off with surges in traffic to your website for many years to
    come without having to buy the traffic. Consider it an investment
    in building your website's traffic-future."

    - Christopher Knight, CEO, EzineArticles.com

    Note: Concluding sentences are primarily used in the formal writing of long paragraphs with multiple details in the supporting sentences. Short paragraphs (2-3 supporting sentences) do not require a concluding sentence.

The next edition of the EzineArticles.com Article Writing: Paragraph and Grammar Structure Training Series will explore paragraph coherence and unity.

Famous celebrities have had their fortune told by the Fortune Teller! Wait where are you going? Trust us!

Teased At the Sideshow

Tour Guide: See the Amazing Strong Man and see him lift 2 tons of heavy steel! Thank you for your 10 tokens, step right in this tent to see the Amazing Strong Man! ... Now that you've paid your tokens, here is what was promised… a picture of a strong man lifting weights… If you would like to see the Amazing Strong Man in person, go to the address shown in the picture. Sorry! No Refunds!

User Experience: What a tease! Your article should ALWAYS deliver on its promise, without promotional content and not contain a teaser link or phrase that requires a reader to click away or reference another source in order to receive the full benefit of the article. Build up YOUR credibility by being the original source!

Big Prize Darts and Hitting the Bullseye!

Tour Guide: Step right up, step right up! Try your hand at target shooting to hit the bullseye to win the prize: the giant panda! We have a shooter! Now, what you want to do is make sure you have the dart between your thumb and forefinger, loosen up your wrist and get a good look at your target. Next, make sure your arm is not too tight against your body and in a nice smooth arc, let your eyes do the work and throw that dart where your eyes lead you. Ready? Go! Great job - you got the biggest prize of all! Make sure you come back again!

User Experience: This is the ultimate user experience! Offering a solution in an informative manner, this expert dart thrower provided informative tips to hit the bullseye dead-on! No sales-pitch, no teasing, just straightforward information and delivered exactly what was promised!

Informative Content Builds Trust

I was introduced to EzineArticles over a year ago. If I had got myself in gear and stopped panicking, I would have realised what a simple place this is to publish articles.

I'm also reassured that this is a quality site, so there is a distinct lack of duplication and also a simple way for my clients to navigate and have a browse. Can't recommend it highly enough!

Article Title: Common Mistakes to Avoid

Hello Training Series Member,

Here is the next edition of the EzineArticles.com Article Writing and Marketing: Article Title Training Series.

Every site you submit articles to may have different editorial style guides. Here are some helpful tips to help you get your EzineArticles submission accepted faster:
  1. Double-check spelling and word usage in your article title.

  2. Commas are allowed, but only in the middle of a title.

  3. Do not put a period at the end of your article title.

  4. All colons (:) and semicolons (;), long and medium dashes, pipes (|), and slashes (/) are to be replaced with two short dashes (--), or changed to word equivalents.

  5. Ampersands (&) and parentheses () are allowed.

  6. Quotation marks are allowed to emphasize a part of a title, but not the entire title. Please remove quotes around the entire article as they are superfluous and of no benefit to the author or reader.

  7. Microsoft Smart Quotes: Please remove them. They break RSS feeds, emails, etc.

  8. Never put an article number in the title of an article.

    Example: [Wrong] Dog Grooming Tips-Article #3
    Example: [Right] Dog Grooming Tips

    Tip: The reader is most likely not privy to how many articles you may have written on a subject. It also creates useless title bloat.

  9. Never purposefully use commonly misspelled words in your article title to try and gain traffic from humans who misspell words in their searches. WHY? It's sneaky and it can ruin your credibility as an expert author.

  10. Never put a year or date in the title of an article. This greatly reduces the "shelf-life" and marketability of your article.

    Tip: If you want to update or "freshen" up your article, update the copyright date in your resource box as a marker that will tell the reader when you originally wrote the article.
Writing articles for syndication means that your content will be read for many years and decades to come. Consider that for a moment before you write your next article title.

Having a smart article title is the key to hooking more readers, but the article title is only the envelope in our article marketing campaign. What's inside your article envelope will determine if the reader is satisfied enough to begin to understand and/or trust you.

[EzineArticles] User Experience Land: Rollercoaster Rides!

User Experience Land: Rollercoaster Rides! EzineArticles.com Logo

The Ups and Downs of User Experience

Welcome to User Experience Land where internet users flock to the attractions your articles offer! As your tour guide today, I will be taking you to our first stop in this internet amusement park: the rollercoasters. Our park has 3 fabulous rollercoaster rides for you to choose from! Excited Right?

Heartbreaker!

Tour Guide: Step right up, step right up! The Heartbreaker is a fantastic coaster! There's five loops and two giant drops; everybody who's been on this ride has loved it! Unfortunately it appears this coaster is still under construction... Hmm, you're a tad disappointed. Moving on, then!

User Experience: Links that are broken or down for maintenance stop users in their tracks and force them to leave disappointed. Ensure your links work so readers can enjoy all the content on your site! Check your links using multiple browsers and then test them at least twice.

Choppy Loop!

Tour Guide: The Choppy Loop coaster takes you on the ride of your life! Just look at how much fun these riders are having. Oh! It seems that the coaster has stopped in the middle of a loop for the riders to view a message from our sponsors. Not to worry... These ads are quick. I'm sure they'll be down sometime... Well, on to the next coaster as we won't wait.

User Experience: Links that break up a user's experience with excessive ads or exit pop-ups distract readers and leave them frustrated. Make quality content the focus of your link's landing page to encourage readers to stick around.

Rock n' Roller!

Tour Guide: Here we have the Rock n' Roller! This coaster's sign says it has two loops and a corkscrew. Look, you can see them right over there! The Rock n' Roller has 5 stars in safety and is not under construction! In fact, navigation is smooth and you're able to experience everything you were promised PLUS more! This coaster is what every rider is talking about!

User Experience: Links that deliver on the promise and have great content provide users with a good experience. These links keep readers coming back for more, build reader loyalty, and boost your credibility as an expert in your niche.

As a user, which rollercoaster would you choose?

Make sure your links provide users a rock 'n roll experience by double-checking that they work and contain all the great content you promise. It's the best way to get readers to visit again and again!

How do you deliver a great user experience to your readers? Visit this post online and share your comments!

Jacqueline Coote "Thank you EzineArticles for your support!"

Being a self-taught artist I was always skeptical about starting to paint and designing my own website. I always felt that way about writing articles, too.

Once I joined EzineArticles and began to submit articles, I gained the self-confidence I didn't have before. It has also added traffic to my website. I hope to continue to write articles of interest and look forward to my increase in sales. Thank you EzineArticles for your support!

[EzineArticles] Good Articles vs. Ugly Articles

Good Articles vs. Ugly Articles EzineArticles.com Logo

How to Avoid Poor Writing Habits and Keep Your Articles Lookin' Good

While beauty may be in the eye of the beholder, there are just some things that we all can agree are undesirable. For instance, imagine you are looking to buy a new home. You walk in the house for the first time with your real estate agent and you see light fixtures hanging, windows broken, holes in the roof, and leaky faucets. This house isn't just a fixer upper... it's UGLY!

The same thing can be said about articles. While it's fine to have some rough patches in your first draft, an article that is submitted for review with thin, spammy, keyword stuffed, promotional content is just plain ugly!

Watch this video to learn the difference between good and ugly articles to keep your articles lookin' good!

Downloadable Versions:
WMV Format     MOV Format     MV4 Format     MP3 Format

Write Show-Stopping Articles

There are several things you can do to make sure your articles are "ready for their close-up."

1. Make sure that your articles are one of a kind.

Your article should be offering a new piece of information to the market each time. If you're not doing this, your audience will begin to look elsewhere for their information.

2. Make sure your articles are easy to read.

This includes using proper grammar, and balancing keywords. Read the article out loud to yourself before you submit it to make sure it reads naturally.

3. Make sure your articles are not self-serving.

Remember, the article body is where you GIVE information to your reader. The resource box is the appropriate place to TAKE your reader to your link, or give them more information about your business.

Each "good" article you write will help you to attract readers and build credibility. Don't let an ugly duckling get in your way to success! Use quality checks to ensure your articles provide quality information, read naturally, and give.

What quality measures do you take to ensure your articles are show-stopping? Visit this post online and share your comments!

Article Title: Keyword Richness

Hello Training Series Member,

Here is the next edition of the EzineArticles.com Article Writing and Marketing: Article Title Training Series.

Ask yourself: "Do I write keyword-rich article titles?"

Example 1: "Car Audio"
  • This article title is too short to get any hooks and the reader has to guess what your angle to the topic will be about.
Example 2: "Car Audio and Electronics"
  • This is better, yet it does not explain why someone should read the article.
Example 3: "Car Audio and Video That Will Make Your Friends Envy You"
  • Now we have picked up a 2nd keyword, "video" and a reason why to read the article.
Example 4: "Car Audio Components, Subwoofers and Tweeters - 7 Tips to Amp Up Your Stereo"
  • Here you see multiple high value keywords, gave a reason to read the article and even used a high value keyword as a verb, "Amp."
Tip: Use a keyword tool such as GoodKeywords, Google Suggest, or Wordtracker to help identify keywords for your article titles.

Also, ask yourself this question: "Do the first 3 words of my article title introduce the topic of the article?"
  1. Start your article title with your article subject.

  2. Avoid starting with 'junk words' or conjunctions, such as "a" or "the."

  3. It is acceptable to start your article title with a verb and then roll directly into a dense keyword relating to the subject of your article.

  4. Consider using two article topic hooks in your article title.

    Example: "Yoga Moves - 7 Tips To Flatten Your Abs With Hatha Yoga Techniques"

    Topic hook #1 is "Yoga" or "Yoga Moves"
    Topic hook #2 is "Flatten Your Abs" or "Hatha Yoga"
Can you imagine the possibilities of using two very narrow topical hooks to help your reader know what the benefit will be if they invest the time to read your article?

The next edition of the EzineArticles.com Article Writing and Marketing: Article Title Training Series offers a list of common mistakes to avoid when crafting your article title.

[EzineArticles] Creating a Healthy Article Writing Environment

Creating a Healthy Article Writing Environment EzineArticles.com Logo

Want to get your article writing organized, but don't know where to begin?

Your article writing environment can help or hamper your productivity. A cramped and cluttered article writing space leaves little room for idea growth and adds to procrastination. A public space may be distracting and a bare space can be uninspiring!

Toss out the stress of writer's block and distraction by making your workspace fun and engaging with these great workspace tips!

Necessities for Your Drawer

  • Writing Tablets - ...or anything to quickly jot down your ideas! Compile ideas in a journal, brainstorm by drawing a mind-map or creating lists, and use color-coded sticky notes for title ideas! This will help pull you away and think "off-the-page" to get your ideas organized.
  • Healthy Snacks - Nothing is more distracting than hunger. Keep a healthy snack stashed away to keep your energy up so you don't wander from your article writing in search of food.

Pinned to Your Bulletin Board

  • Calendar - Plan ahead by jotting down ideas on a calendar. Scheduling helps you visualize and track a plan that may be based on themes, seasonal trends and more.
  • Inspiration - Everyone needs a little element of inspiration to realign their focus. This could include pictures of family, an inspirational quote, or a list of your goals to inspire article ideas!

Books for Your Shelf

  • Dictionary and Thesaurus - Whether you stumble across a word you are not quite familiar with or are looking to spice up the language of your article, a dictionary and a thesaurus are excellent reference tools.
  • English Grammar Guide - Can't remember the proper usage of a comma? A grammar guide can answer all of your grammar questions and help you convey your expertise to readers.

It is important to note that any of the mediums above may be supplemented; a digital counterpart could be used, such as software, apps, etc. or something as simple as the type of folder you use. The key is to experiment and find the tools that work for you!

Getting organized and creating an environment that works for you will increase your productivity, help you manage your time, plan ahead, and foster new ideas! It's never to late to get your article writing efforts organized, so start today!

Do you have a great tip to increase productivity and spark inspiration? Visit this post online and share your comments!

  1. Consider expanding your article title by forty percent (40%). Evidence suggests that longer article titles produce more views per article vs. short article titles.

  2. Longer article titles can also increase your reprint rate and value. The narrower the focus, the more specialized the reprint website and the more qualified the visitor/reader. This results in a greater referral rate of traffic to your website.

    Tip: For EzineArticles.com, your article title can be up to 100 characters long. Make your article title just a little longer than what might feel comfortable and you will often see a higher return from your article in terms of how much traffic it can attract for you.

  3. A good article title length is greater than 70 characters but less than 100 characters.
Also, Ask yourself: "Does my article title use clear and concise wording?"
  1. Get to the point. Do not use exclamatory wording like "You Don't Want to Miss This" or "This is a Must Read" in your article title to induce urgency. It usually just induces annoyance. If your article is good, you don't need it in your title. Focus on the article topic.

  2. Rambling on and on in your article title shows a lack of respect for your readers time. Most people make the mistake of spending 99% of their time on the article body and 1% on the article title. Instead, put 20% of your time on the article title and 80% on the article body.

  3. Don't use slang. It will often backfire, especially if your English-speaking reader did not grow up in your same country or with your same life references. Be direct and be sensitive to cultural misunderstandings when choosing your article title.

  4. Brevity is golden. Start with a long article title with multiple hooks into your key topic and then continue to ask yourself how you could tighten up the article title without sacrificing your intended article title promise.

The next edition of the EzineArticles.com Article Writing and Marketing: Article Title Training Series offers tips for and examples of keyword-rich article titles.

[EzineArticles] Identifying the Needs of Your Audience

Identifying the Needs of Your Audience EzineArticles.com Logo

5 Questions to Ask Yourself Before You Write Your Article

"If you give an audience a chance they will do half your acting for you." - Katharine Hepburn

Katharine Hepburn, the great American actress, knew a thing or two about utilizing an audience.

When you set out to write an article, it is important to know how to use your audience. This will help you create something that is in demand and that is well received. When your audience feels their needs are being met by your articles, they will consider you a reliable authority and keep coming back for more!

Watch this video to learn how to ask yourself the right questions about your audience to jumpstart your article writing process!

Five Important Questions You Should Ask Yourself:

1. Who is my audience for this article?

It is important to know who you are writing for. This will help you develop an appropriate tone and style for your article. It will also help you present the information you want to present in the most effective way. For example, using jargon or complicated concepts in an article would not be appropriate for a reader who is new to the niche.

2. Why am I writing this article?

Are you writing to introduce people to your niche? Are you writing to raise awareness for an issue? Are you writing to inform someone who is already an expert of a new product or technique you discovered? Each of these scenarios would require a different article.

3. What information does my audience crave?

Knowing what your audience wants to learn is a very important piece of information to have. This ensures you are delivering the type of content that is in demand.

4. Why does my audience need this information?

This ties into the previous questions: if someone reading your article wants to learn everything there is to know about golf because they want to become an instructor, they would want a vastly different article than someone who is just looking for a few beginner tips to improve their weekend game.

5. How can I deliver even more to my audience?

Making sure your links are optimized to deliver the best content is very important. If you are sending readers to your link for more information, make sure it's easy to find and plentiful. This will build trust and keep your readers coming back to you again and again.

Channel your audience with these questions and let them help you in your future article writing! Revisit this post online to share your experiences and let us know what you do to keep your audience in mind!
