Long Articles



Sample image

When do we go for long articles? The answer is blowing in the wind. Yes, it is a song of Bob Dylan but we write long articles only to explain things in detail in the back drop of a quality research.

Before writing a long article we should always

> Have a deep look into the keyword and try to analyze it with a thought on how to go about it .
> Decide the style of article and narrative you are going to choose .
> Always try to give a proper title to your work. It is one of the primary things a reader will look into while browsing. Try to write the most appropriate and relevant title .
> A long article is usually in the range of 900 to 1000 words, so proper sub headings will greatly increase the readability of the article.
> After doing primary research, decide the skeleton on which the article will be written. See what are the different areas you are going to throw light on.
> Give a lot of thought to the introduction. It is the most important part of your article. Start your work in the best possible manner and spill the beans early.
> Try to write an introduction which is catchy and very specific to the keyword.

Take a look at this intro from New York Times, on most favorite internet brands, “It is not enough to be able to state your favorite movie, your favorite song or your favorite color. In the 21st century, you should also be ready to answer this question: What’s your favorite Internet brand?” Look! How gracefully author is setting the tone for the topic and, at the same time, sticking to the keyword.

> Write short paragraphs. Four to five sentence paragraphs are always better, it puts reader at ease.
> Be very specific. Don’t generalize things. Give concrete examples. It gives credibility.
> Be very careful while writing the body. Writers often fell in the trap of repetition which actually loosens your write-up. Always try to bring a flow while writing the body of the article and interconnect your research tightly in between paragraphs.
> Close your article with a punch, but it should never look a jump or out of context. It is very necessary to close your writing in a proper manner, it gives reader a feeling of “job done.”
