Keeping a Reader Friendly Blog (part 2)
A picture paints a thousand words. Or so they say. But there’s actually truth to that. Visually-oriented people would opt to read blogs with images. These pictures help them grasp exactly what you’re trying to say. For example, an article about Italy would be more meaningful (and reader-friendly) if you’d put pictures of the hottest spots, the infrastructure, and the people living there.
If you’re using your blog as a sort of a memoir or a diary, then I think it would be best to break the barrier between you and the reader. Write as if you’re talking to them! Keep the tone of your article conversational. This way it would make readers more welcome to your blog. However, you need to check on your choice of words. A friendly blog should also be a tasteful one. Whatever kind of language you use makes an impact on you as the writer. It’s a reflection of who you are. Don’t get yourself reported for making derogative remarks or writing foul language. A blog is like a shirt. It also holds your image.
