How to make a Good looking and informative breaking news post!



Step 1. The Basics

Well First of all when you find the Article you want to share with TTG. Make sure YOU have read it carefully and know its facts, its point, and its statement, and any additional facts about the topic you may need.

why?

This will help you when posting so you know what your talking about. You can talk to another member about it and understand what's going on. Comprehend the whole situation.



Step 2. Sorting it out

Find Key Facts in the Article you are about to share, make sure that these key facts keep the reader, reading. Keep them interested in what there reading.

Why?

Well if you where the reader reading this posted Breaking News, would you rather read a 5 sentence post point out key facts and important things on the topic or a giant copy and paste thats 200 sentences long, when only 10 of the sentences really matter.


Step 3. the Title

Now that you have found the information you want to share, and its down to the facts.

Pick an appropriate title, Generally take the title from the article add more

Take the Title from the article and put a spin on it or take key facts and get creative.

Now Remember you do not want your title misleading, you want it informative, but to the point where it makes you want to know more than what you've learned from the title.

A Title from a Breaking News Article could have been

Mercedes-Benz Biome

Take that and Make it something like

Mercedes-Benz Biome car of the future

(Now Tell me Which do you click on? Something that is probably just another car coming out or car of the future?)


Step 4. Visual

On a Topic, all though it may be greatly put, down to key facts, and engaging it may not be just what you need.

Some readers need visuals to help them more, or become more engaged. In todays world its all about seeing, so take the time find some pictures via Google, the article other articles on the matter, but be careful about pictures off of Google some may be misleading


Step 5. 90% Complete

State an Opinion. Share your thoughts, let the reader know what you think and make them want to give more than feed back on just the article it self.

Make sure to Separate this though, make one bold and one not.
Something to the effect that the reader does not think it is part of the article

one Last thing

Either Quote what you copied and pasted using this

[quote] Text Here [/quote]


or adding your own ( "Text here")


Other Key Factors

-Organization is Good (Not Needed)
-Spelling
-Color is Good, mix it up but do not use colors to bright
-Getting your opinion across properly
-Getting Article Across Well
-Non-biased (Do not opinion-ate the article)
