How to Write a Blog

by Tara Robinson

So I have been known to be a bit of a blog queen 👸 from my cohort. Therefore thought it was necessary to write a blog about suggestions on what to write about.

But first of all Why do I write so many blogs?

So for myself I find this is the best way to reiterate what I have learnt. If I can show how to do something via these blogs then it might help someone else who was struggling with the same problem.

Blogs are not for everyone and that is ok. Some people might find it easier to record themselves and make videos as a way to show what they have learnt. Or for some people it might be trying to teach it and that is ok too. Whatever works for you then do it.

How do I get my content?

What I do throughout my day is when being taught something that I have found in some way challenging or I thought would be useful to remind myself then I note it down. My style of blogs is to try keep things simple by doing step to steps with lots of pictures and gifs. For me visuals help me as well as step by step guides to remember what I have be taught. However, this is not the only way to do this. You can try make blogs funny or short. This is up to you as this is the process that helps you remember what you learnt. For me that is step by steps.

Now you got your topic and process you need to choose what your going to write about. Whether this is working through an example or a basic introduction  to a topic to see the use cases. Once you have these you can start writing.

If your not a strong writer you can always focus heavily on pictures and gifs. This is also a great way to keep blogs interesting for other users. It also helps to get other people to read it to make sure that blogs make sense. Recieving this feedback will only allow yourself to improve.What I did was write a step by step with pictures/ gifs and see if someone can recreate it just from the blog. If not I know that changes need to be made.
