Do you stop and think about how you want to organize your content as you write? That will cost you precious minutes.
Think about it.
If you spend 2 minutes on each article re-organizing paragraphs, you will end up spending 40 minutes (assuming you write 20 articles a day) purely on organizing activities.
That's a lot of time to shell out for article writing.
So what's the solution? I highly recommend the use of an article template when writing articles.
The template will keep everything in place.
All your ideas will be well organized and neatly presented to the readers.
You don't have to think about what goes where, and how the ideas should link to one another.
Here is the preferred format that I use.
Start with a short teaser that is about 3 to 5 sentences in length.
Note that this is a teaser.
It's not an introduction, and it's not a summary.
So it shouldn't contain ALL your key ideas.
The goal here is to entice the reader to keep on reading.
Following the teaser, I usually split the article into at least 3 paragraphs.
Each paragraph is responsible for expressing just one key idea.
A paragraph will contain about 50 to 100 words.
When I reach the end of the paragraph, I move on to the next idea.
When I finish all 3 paragraphs, I'm done with the article.
There is no need to go back and re-arrange the paragraphs because the structure keeps everything well organized.
By the time I finish the final paragraph, I would have hit my desired word count.
If the word count is still short, I include a concluding paragraph.
But that seldom happens.
