They often ask for a concise definition of the phrase “high quality article.”  \nThe new freelancer can fortunately count on a degree of consensus among employers and publishers, at least in terms of what they expect from a high quality article written for the web.  \nExperience proves that clients and submission sites routinely set the following minimum expectations. Satisfy these guidelines, and you are on the path to earning money as a freelance writer.  \nReadability  \nH  \nKeep your article easy to read. Writing for the web is often entirely different from academic writing such as your college papers.  \nCast aside the old notions of “full” paragraph development. Due to the nature of reading prose on a screen, rather than a printed page, web writing demands shorter paragraphs,  \ncommonly no more than two or three sentences.  \nSometimes one sentence makes for an effective paragraph on the web.  \n􀁺 Your objective is to keep paragraphs ofan article brief and punchy. Do not ramble. High quality web articles are focused pieces.  \n􀁺 Add “air” to your articles. Even short pieces can sometimes be split into two or three subsections.  \nCreate subheading for each, preferably containing a keyword. Dividing your article into subsections makes it easier on the web reader's eyes.  \n􀁺 Readers greedy for information love bullet points. Bullets shout “important idea.”  \n􀁺 Add graphics whenever possible. Photos and other “eye candy” breathe extra life into your writing.  \nOf course, it remains important to correct all spelling and grammatical errors prior to publication or submission as a writing sample. You want to be a professional. Prove you have mastered the fundamentals.  \nWord, Words, Words: Article Length  \nFreelance assignments almost invariably specify a word count. The count will vary depending on the purpose and nature of the eventual article, and the style of the place of publication. Web writing tends to be comprised of short pieces for review purposes and longer pieces for informational ones.  \nOf course, many high quality publication outlets permit high word counts, but high word count does not necessarily correlate with quality web writing. Studies of internet reading habits indicate that long articles focusing upon topics that are not trending, or\"hot,\" lose readers quickly. Article publication sites suggest that, if your topic requires 800 words or more, you split the lengthy piece into multiple shorter articles, each with a tight focus.  \nCertainly, you will see exceptions to this rule. The material you are currently reading, for example, violates this guideline, although it is divided into a multitude of sections. Studies of internet reading habits have also proven that, the hotter the topic, the longer an article can be.  \nAt the outset of your freelance career, you cannot go wrong by sticking to some general rules:  \n􀁸 Provide solid information, rather than opinion.  \n􀁸 Stay focused on a single topic.  \n􀁸 Do not ramble, or repeat ideas, for the sake of raising the word count.  \n􀁸 Insert appropriate and popular keywords.  \n􀁸 Use an active, rather than passive voice.  \nStyle Guides are Instructions: Follow Them  \nArticle submission sites, employers, blogs-virtually any place to which you may submit an article-might have a style guide, and provide you wit","cbCaicIHyQrydIVR","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaicIHyQrydIVR","pdf",1597922,30,"English","# How to Write High Quality Freelance Articles\n## Readability\n## Word Count and Article Length\n## Follow Style Guides\n## Proofread and Edit","[{\"question\":\"What makes a high quality freelance article for the web?\",\"answer\":\"High quality web articles match shared expectations for readability and usefulness: clear structure, short paragraphs, appropriate subheadings with keywords, and error-free writing.\"},{\"question\":\"How should freelance writers handle article length and word count?\",\"answer\":\"Follow assignment word counts and keep long, unfocused content from losing readers.
