In this article we will discuss the basics of how to write an article, tips for choosing topics, and how to get started in online writing.

How to Write an Article

If you can put together a basic article like you did in English class, then you can do online writing. To refresh your memory, here is an easy way to construct a paragraph. The "Hamburger Paragraph" is a simple model which I was taught in school. There are other ways of creating articles, but this is a good simple one that anyone can follow. The concept follows the idea of 5 sentences, but you can alter it of course.  

The first paragraph is the introduction (the top bun). In this sentence you will state your topic belief, the objective or purpose. The next three sentences are used to prove your statement. These are the insides of the hamburger: i.e. the cheese, lettuce and 

hamburger patty. The final sentence, number five, is used to conclude your paragraph. This is the bottom bun of your hamburger. In this sentence you will restate your main statement and any claims which you have backed up by the three previous sentences. You are finished! See how easy that was? Here is an example:

Cats are a nuisance and not suitable pets for families with young children. They often have trouble using their kitty litter box and will miss their target, getting it all over the floor  causing a big mess to clean up if the kids don't get into it first. Cats make loud 'meowing' noises which can keep napping children up as well as get on anyone's nerves. Cats have a mean streak about them and have been known to strike out and scratch an innocent child or even bite them. If you have ever owned a cat, you will indeed agree that they are a nuisance and not a suitable pet for families with young children.

Using this model, you can grow your paragraph to a larger one by increasing data and proof to back up the statement. You can also prove a number of statements. Turn it into an article by having the first paragraph state your position. The next three or more paragraphs can be used to prove your claim(s). And finally, the last paragraph will restate your claims and conclude with a small summary of the results described in the previous paragraphs.

Choosing Article Topics

There are a variety of topics that you can choose to write about. When choosing topics, it is preferable to go with those that are familiar to you, if you have a choice. Make sure that you can write intelligently about the subject. This may involve doing a little research first, before you begin. Or, maybe you have something important to say or some interesting tips to share with others. Choosing good subject matter and writing it well will help you excel in online writing.
