5 Actions Before Clicking ‘Publish’
Blogs are a powerful tool for sharing content and networking with readers that share your interests. EPS411.com is a blog for emergency responders interested in elearning (or elearning designers producing content for emergency responders).
Does your organization have a blog for distributing education content to members? Is your blog accessible to readers inside and outside of your organization?
Before you submit a post to an elearning blog, remember to complete this checklist:
1. Walk away. Write your post, edit, and take a break. Return to your post at a later time, when your mind is fresh and ready to add and delete ideas.
2. Check with an expert. As needed, validate your information with a professional in the field, when writing on technical topics.
3. Spellcheck. Use the built-in blog spell checker to look for basic spelling errors.
4. Look for misused words. Use a dictionary or an Internet resource, such as Dictionary.com, to look up synonyms or words that are commonly misused such as effect/affect or their/there/they’re.
5. Read your entry aloud. Most typos and simple editing errors can be caught by reading text aloud.
Now you are ready. Click POST to blog.
