Day 6 – Tip 6: Lean into clarity and structure

[Peter Ogundairo]

As a tech writer, clarity is your superpower, as explained in tip 5. You should always aim for a clear structure for your articles or other forms of content. Use headings, subheadings, and bullet points, and more to organize your content. Remember, your goal is to make complex tech concepts accessible to all readers.

I recommend the following:

– Outline First: Create an outline that breaks down your content into logical sections before writing.
– Use Headings: Use headings and subheadings to guide readers through your content.
– Bullet Points: Use bullet points or numbered lists to present information clearly, especially for step-by-step guides or key takeaways.
– Short Paragraphs: Keep paragraphs short and focused on one idea to enhance readability.
– Active Voice: Write in an active voice to make sentences more direct and easier to understand.
Simple Language: Avoid jargon and complex language.

EXTRA TIP:

Proofread: Review your work for clarity, grammar, and structure. Consider using tools like Grammarly or Hemingway for assistance.
