Identification

When using Good Writing for digital media, identify the audience and consider who is reading what the writer is trying to say. Always focus on a small, targeted community.

Using Identification

Contemplate the reader’s interests, concerns, questions, and take them into consideration. In other words, because a blog is personal, readers can better relate not only to the content but also to the writer.

How to identify a targeted community

• Evaluate
• Write what you know and research what you do not
• Brainstorm topics that will appeal to the reader
