What Makes Whales Upvote You
On my latest post, I made some guide on how to catch whale's attention and attract more readers to your article. Just refer above.
Written there is creating a GOOD content. But how do you create a good content? This is why Im writing this post to have a guide for newbies in making their articles stand out among all.
Quite large number of Steemers believe being a fast, intelligent and creative writer is all it takes to be a good content creator and make them standout. I, on the other hand, disagree with this belief.
Writers have the experience and skills to deliver top quality content. I believe in order to make your content marketing standout; the following must be done:
1. Seek For Your Comfort Area.
Your comfort area deals with how you can pass your ideas to readers as attractive and understanding as possible. You have to discover if you’re the type who passes messages across through teaching, debates, motivation and inspiration.
Finding your thing involves showcasing your creativity; creating exciting stories, providing informative facts, improve and innovate goals, consistently featuring them in your contents and using visual media to make your content on an entirely new level. Texts combined with visuals are more effective and interesting to read.
2. Be Different.
Create your content differently from others. Make sure it’s something memorable and easy to recall weeks or months after. For instance, writing about a controversial topic such as "Why should we quit SteemIt", "Facebook will be adapting SteemIt's Platform" and many more that will catch the taste of the readers.
3. The More the Better.
This involves giving more in your content. More could be in the following forms; writing more unique informations, building more social relationships, being consistent and committed, putting all your knowledge in your hand and producing more contents.
4. Be You and Personalize.
Personalizing. Its just like, you are what you are writing. Your content gives your readers a sense of belonging and connection with you. Making them feel like people, sort of interconnection; feeling every emotion as if it were their own.
5. Target Your Readers.
Targetting your readers wants, needs and aspiration is a major key in content writing. It helps you understand when and how to write contents that push your readers buttons in order to get your desired outcome. It also helps you play major roles in your reader's lives when it comes to their decision making.
6. Accuracy.
Giving accurate information helps to build trust with your readers. Discrepancies in reporting and sourcing of information can damage your personal reputation as your content is a reflection of your work and it impacts how your articles are viewed.
7. Short but has a Point.
Do your best way possible to always make sure you eliminate unwanted information from your content. A brief, straight to the point informative content is better than a long content with irrelevant information. Its quality over quantity. Though writing a short content could be more difficult and more time consuming than a long content, the major goal should be satisfying your readers and not yourself.

Hi your post is great I will have @gavvet add your past as soon as he can but I will be featuring you tomorrow under Featured authors
yey! thanks so much. I will be eager enough to create original content. Honestly I was so down knowing no one will be appreciating my work. Im planning to post my horror stories here before and I think I might endorse it to you if you find it cool. :) Thanks again.
If you are going to use content and material from other sources you should give them credit otherwise you are just plagiarizing . You will develop a bad reputation and begin getting downvoted on all your non-original content. There are bots now that will auto-detect plagiarized content like this article you posted as your own.
FYI - below is the original author of your content
