What is ghost writing?

This is a kind of writing that is done on ‘behalf’ of the person. The ghost-writer’s name does not get revealed.

They provide you with quality professional content in about any format you require.

Here are some of the advantages of letting a ghostwriter write for you:

• All the writing work and designing is easily outsourced to ghostwriters. They do all the work you get the benefit (and the profits)!

How to write a blog?

I have started off writing on the net. Suddenly I find myself scanning the net for information on what people do in their writings. The fist step was to prepare and write my own blog.

I have written my own blog on Feng Shui & Astrology, pervarakapadiaatblog.blogspot.com . And find this experience interesting.

Write a blog to express yourself. Write to tell stories. Write to share links and pictures and recipes and prayers and travel tips and love poems.

So how do we write blogs?

• Omit all unnecessary words
• Aim at keeping your posts at about 250 words
• Include complete thoughts in headlines
• Keep sentences and paragraphs short
• Never lose your sense of humor
• Write like it counts
• White space is your friend
• Use the simplest possible word and sentence structure
• Read your post out loud and make sure you don't get stuck on complex construction
• Use bulleted points whenever you can
• Use subheads every few paragraphs, even in a 300 word post
• Use bold text and italics for emphasis on words and phrases
• Make sure your posts are easy to scan
• Choose your voice and keep it consistent
• Don't be afraid to voice opinions.
