Create your lead paragraph.
This is very important. The lead paragraph should get right to the purpose of the post and make it relevant to the reader. After the title, this could be the most important part of your post.

Find a Good Image to go with your Post.
Find an image that relates to your article and feature it prominently. Now, this does not mean go out and search the internet for any old image to use (there are copyright issues with this, and you don’t want to run afoul of those). There are tons of places where you can get free or low-cost images for blog posts that are able to use without copyright restrictions. I have this page from ViralSweep bookmarked on my computer for these kind of images.
