Exclamation My Quick Tips for Content Creation

1. If you're finding writing on the topic you've chosen difficult, save the article, leave it, and try a new topic. In my experience if you plow on it'll just be very hard work and the article will suck anyway.

The best articles are wrote when you just can't stop typing and it pours out easily.

2. Write on topics which have been in your mind recently and which you feel some current passion for.

3. Forget all about SEO, image placement, and what you "think" you should be writing about... just write about what you are feeling... even if it's outside of your "niche"

4. Always re-read your article before you publish... bad grammer/spelling is so tacky.

5. Always always "preview" your article before you publish. The ammount of times images and layouts don't show as you expect...

6. If you're stuck for inspitation completely, leave it and come back later. Maybe eat some fruit and fish in the mean time

Not stopping to edit is a tip from me. Just write, don't hit that backspace button, edit it later.
If you come to a stop and you're still not satisfied with what you've written, save it as a draft, don't throw it away, you may find more inspiration for that post later.

That's actually a really great writing tip in general. A lot of writing exercises insist on this technique because so many writers will stumble over making sure something sounds just right and they waste a lot of time that they could be pumping out content. Go back and make things sound a little better afterward instead of getting hung up.

Exactly. What I've done so far is that I pretty much just write, write and write and if it turns out bad I still save it as a draft. If I don't come back later to it and continue on it, there might still be a piece of wisdom or a good sentence in that draft post that was good that I can instead put in another post.
