Content Guidelines – What makes good content?

  1. Well-researched and informative articles. Nobody wants to read something that they’ve already read elsewhere!
    • Give practical information and actionable steps.
    • Include addresses, prices and other useful information.
  2.  Either evergreen content (content that readers will find useful at any time of the year) or current viral news!
  3.  A “smarter way“ angle on popular topics.
    • Can you help the reader make a better decision? Do you have any tips to share on how to save money or time on anything?
  4. Well-structured, easy to read and visually attractive.
    • Less verbose and more “to the point”: use bullet points and tables
    • Good grammar and simple English for clearer and shorter sentences
    • Beautiful, relevant and high-resolution images
  5. An appropriate length. 600-1000 words work best!
