Content writing isn't an easy task although easy for most people but not everyone finds it easy to do.
This is my entry on the #dcc contest tag for this week's prompt ~ Content.
What content do you like to create the most? What content do you like to consume the most? How the content should be? What's the best content for a platform? How creating content helped you in your real life?
For me, content writing is fun especially if it has to do with you writing your day to day life but there is always a problem I know every content writer may likely express and that is the ability to pass their information to their reader without making them feel bored or tired to reading and that is what content writing is all about.
There are days, I have a lot of content sitting in my draft but I am having issues coming up with topic that best suits that writing and that is another important factor when we are talking about content writing. Being able to come up with a topic that draws readers to your blog matters, and also a topic that will not only make your article eye-catchy but bring about engagements or discussion.
I guess content writing is who we are and what we understand the world to be, it is penning down our experiences, our thoughts, and the world in our view to others.
In a platform like Hive, one of the contents I still find difficult to grasp is the leofinance community content and especially if it has to do with money, tokens, and cryptocurrency as a whole, I get pretty bored easily with it and tend to ignore a content like that because it kind of gives me a headache when I glance through them.
Any content can be good as long as it is not boring, as a content writer one thing we should learn to do when creating content no matter the genre of the content is to be able to create humor, and perhaps suspense that will enable the reader to keep reading and not get bored easily. Whatever content we are writing should involve a real-life experience that can help the reader analyze or go into their imaginary world to virtualize whatever information you are passing out in their own way and understanding, and this lives room for the reader to be able to give an accurate response or make a valid contribution even though they are yet to experience what you wrote but the ability to imagine what you wrote gives them a light of what you are trying to pass across to your readers.
I believe any content is valid and important for any platform as long as it is a real-life experience and can be able to hold the reader's attention for a long time.
Any content is valid if the reader can dive a little into the world of the writer through imagination to be able to understand the information the writer is passing through and can imagine he or she trying out such things or experiencing such things.
One thing you should never sleep on is the power of the environment. Esthetics such as lighting, colors, scents, and sound/music can be the determining factor in your experience while providing a service or creating a product. Look at musicians, they create music based on the vibe in the studio. It's all about rhythm. When you create in a certain rhythm you can produce these results consistently.
Creating content is like a musician creating his or her song in the studio, they fix in the right sound, the right Keys, and the right voice to give their audience the best.
So is content writing, when writing content, regardless of the genre, we should learn to fix humor, thought-provoking content, great topic, good image, and other things that make the content interesting and eye-catchy for anyone to want to go through without having a second thought.
