Best practices for wordpress posting

WordPress | on Apr. 08, 2011 | by 0 Comments

Post is a place within the wordpress site where you write content for either your users or for personal use. You could have private posts where you have own content and public posts which can be viewed by all people visiting your site. There are guidelines that should be followed to make sure that your clients are comfortable and will keep on coming back for more.

Whenever you are creating posts, always ensure that you think critically before you write. Think of what you are going to write and what you will include on the post. At the same time, ensure that you will be able to write without compromising the quality of the post. They are usually accessed by many people and if it is not quality, then you are likely to lose traffic and referrals. It is not logical to write on something that you have seen or just heard. Write posts on the subject or something you like. You will be able to write far much better posts on the content you like compared to other contents that you can write on.

You need to keep in mind that they may not be having what you have and could also be having different applications for accessing your site. Having that in mind, create posts that will not present challenges and problems to your users regardless of the application they may be using. Always ensure that users can access the content and any graphical items on your posts without any problems. When writing the content on your posts, ensure that there are designated breaks and pauses within the content. Most web users like reading through content that they can pause or take a break from time to time. Ensure this by using paragraphs which should be spaced between each other by a double space.

Depending on the content you are writing on, you may find yourself writing long content with variations. For example, you may write long content that has several sections that demand sub topics. In such a case, please make use of the various headings. H1, H2, H3, H4, and H5 headings can be used for different sections of the content. These can be used for major headings, minor and sub headings. The first three types H1, H2 and H3headings are the most widely used in wordpress. However, this does not mean that the other headings cannot be used. You can always use the heading type you see fit to the part of the content that needs the heading.

Once you have finished writing the content, it is important to go through the post you have just created. You will be able to see any mistakes that you make have made for example grammar and spelling mistakes. You will be able to correct these mistakes on time before the users can access them. Assume you are the user on the other side and rate the post. For example, gauge the possible reactions of the users on the other side when they will be reading the post. If you are content with everything, you can go ahead and publish the post.
