Read the story.
While a man was polishing his new car, his 4 yr old son picked up a stone and scratched lines on the side of the car. In anger, the man took the child's hand and hit it many times, not realizing he was using a wrench.
At the hospital, the child lost all his fingers due to multiple fractures.
When the child saw his father….. with painful eyes he asked, 'Dad when will my fingers grow back?'
The man was so hurt and speechless; he went back to his car and kicked it a lot of times. Devastated by his own actions…. sitting in front of that car he looked at the scratches; the child had written 'LOVE YOU DAD'.

Always try to write simple words in your sentences because if your readers doesn't familiar with superior vocabulary they may move on from your Blog.
Keep in mind your Blog is reading by also educated but non technical readers also so make use of words in content like that are easily understand by these of readers also.
Write your paragraph should be a combination of short ( 1 line), medium (up to 2 to 3 lines) and long ( up to 5 lines).
Always try to write your statement in active voice over passive.
Active voice helps to create more readers friendly sentences.
For example" he writes content" in the active voice, and The content is written by him" you see the difference.
Active voice statements are more effective over the passive voice.
8.Research before to write facts and statistics.
In content writing sometimes is necessary to prove your point regarding your opinions and that place you need to prove your point through by giving some facts, case study, statistics or ideas from right authorities.
If you are not sure about any relevant facts and statistics that you are going to use in your content, then don't use until you know the source of that facts and statistics.
Non-credibility content, lose the faith of your readers.
So whenever you use authority quotes or statement in your content make sure
it comes from their sites.
Using authority sites facts and statistics in your content always make good faith in the readers' mind, and they think you did proper research to present your data in front of them.
