• Think of a title that will grab the readers attention so they will read your article: Ask yourself what problem does my article solve? How will reading this make someone’s life better?
  
  Also consider using sub-headlines to make draw the readers down your post, and write in your own voice as if having a conversation with a friend.

  If you supply a link, it must be natural (not spammy), belong to the author and not lead to a website containing illegal, copyrighted or otherwise unsuitable content for general readers.
