I've written over 80 articles this year.

It made me realise that writing is simple if you do things the right way. I made some mistakes when I started out and I want to save you the trouble of not doing the same.

Here are 3 ways to start writing online:

#1: Write About Things You Know

You have more things to share than you think.

Have some experiences that can help someone? Write about it.

Want to help someone land their first job? Want to share your experiences in a new country? Write.

Your experiences are unique to you, so write about things you know.

#2: Use Simple Vocabulary In Your Writing

You don't have to use complex words to come off as a good writer.

Using simple vocabulary helps the writer feel less fatigued reading what you write. The more complex you write, the harder it gets for your reader.

#3: Try To Solve A Problem

Adding value is a great way to gain traction.

What was once a problem to you will be a current problem for someone else. Writing about overcoming these problems adds value on a large scale.

You provide the solution once, but the internet shares it as many times as needed.

“You can, you should, and if you’re brave enough to start, you will.” ― Stephen King
