I have been trying to keep my posts shorter in order to make them more readable.

Will look to add some images to them as well soon!

When I started my blog I just didn’t know about all these tricks. I just placed the blog and started with the content. Over the time I realized some blogs (this one included) are more pleasant to read and some are not. Little by little I also noticed my posts are a bit too hard to read. I already knew to not write huge paragraphs, but there was something missing too …

The next steps were made afterwards: trying to put bolded subtitles and try to break the post and also use some nice images to give more life to the blog. I am still struggling with all this since some improvements are to be made, but I hope in time the blog’s readability would be way better.

April - You might want to take a look at a desktop blogging editor such as Windows Live Writer. You use Live Writer locally as you would use Word to create your post. You can change colors, mix up the formatting, and add pictures all from within the editor. You then upload the post to your blog, and it is posted exactly the way you saw it. I have a post explaining the features of Windows Live Writer that you might find helpful.

Hi, I would really love to make the intro paragraph text larger on my blogs too.

Any chance of a tutorial on how to do this? I looked at the source code and see that is used but I’m really no good at CSS other than just a little tweaking of colours etc.

Thanks

I like Tips 3 & 5 especially.

Spelling and grammar are very important and they are what ultimately give you credibility as a writer. You could have a lot of great things to say, but when you text is peppered is sloppy errors you just like asinine.

I have never thought of making my blog posts look more like a layout in a magazine, but it’s a great point. There are hundreds of years of modern research in print media and we do need to borrow some of their best practices.

I’ve been trying to do this in some of my posts recently. The subheadings are easy and help quite a bit, but I really need to bring myself to fire up Photoshop and add an image here and there. Makes a big difference in the visual appeal of your site, Nate.

Thanks for the compliments and feedback, Nate. You’re right; I try to give the blog a splash of color with my “visually interesting picture” like here:
