How to Plan Your Articles

To write a very effective article you need to plan your article. Your article needs to have a heading, introduction, the body and conclusion. Having these in place would make your article attract readers.

A well planned article will have an outline that will allow you write quickly. Here are some tips and guidelines on how to create an outline for any article.
Jot down your ideas first. Find ways to attract the interest of your readers. Write down all of the ideas that you will use in your articles. At this point you should have done your research. Review and reread your ideas.

Organize your ideas in topics and sub titles. Your first sentence of your article should immediately grab the attention of your reader. You should also have all the facts to support your point.

Now that you have the skeleton and frame for your article, you should now add the body. Make sure to connect all paragraphs and sub topics. The introduction will usher in the ideas on your paragraph, you will need a conclusion. Your conclusion should wrap up your points and drive home what you are actually saying in your article.

You should always refer to your outline to make sure that you did not drift away from what you had first written down. Your outline will keep you on track, and it will also serve as your guide in writing articles. Rely and put your trust in your outline, it will prove to be a helpful tool as you continue writing all your articles
