Hey Blog Writer, One Post – One Point

This is part of a series of posts on Blog Literacy from the writer’s perspective.

There are three reasons I suggest that blog writers keep their posts to one point per post.

1. Sprints: The writer won’t get longwinded and go for the worlds longest blog post record. Your post shouldn’t be a thesis on the subject;
2. Multiplicity: The writer can continue to write about the topic in future posts and become a champion for that topic, one-post-at-a-time;
3. Brevity: And this, blog friends, is our gift to the reader. Remember K.I.S.S. or Keep It Short, Shakespeare.

I don’t know about you, but a 4,000 word post (especially if they don’t have eye rests) will go unread by everyone but its author.

As you can see above, I’ve a list of three sub-points. But catch that the point of this post is but one thing: One Point Per Post.

I could write much more on this subject (and I may…in a future post).

Great bloggers will always keep the reader in mind, providing an
easy path to the point — their Big Idea. I hope to show how reading and writing are reciprocal processes (sorta like talking and listening in a conversation, yes?).
