Today's Reader needs something to grab their attention and Below I will show you the Basics of Creating a well designed Post. Enjoy!!
Bold
Putting Certain items that are important to your Post in Bold helps to bring the Readers attention to these key points you are trying to make, it also helps to Title and Section off your posts to make the overall look and presentation of your published work look way more inviting. The code for making your words Bold are as Follows:
This Process is very simple, but very effective, just enter (**) before the word or the sentence you want to be Bold and then again at the end of the word or sentence.
Example
This whole sentence was written in Bold - Again it is (**) before and after what you are writing, that you would like to be Bold. (The Parenthesis do not need to be added).
Italics
This is a good way to take the Readers eye's from a certain point of text and invite them to another section, again this will help Divide your Content into Important and Very Important information within the Post.
This Process is very simple, but very effective, just enter (*) before the word or the sentence you want to be Italic and then again at the end of the word or sentence.
Example
This whole sentence was written in Italic - Again it is (*) before and after what you are writing, that you would like to be Italic. (The Parenthesis do not need to be added).
Lastly Bold and Italic
This is a Method used to pinpoint the most important parts of your post and can also be used to give credit to those who's pictures you use. A great way to break apart the Clutter and distinguish the Focal points of what your Post is about, it also helps to bring a sleek classy look to your Post fora more Visual Experience.
This Process is very simple, but very effective, just enter (***) before the word or the sentence you want to be Bold and Italic and then again at the end of the word or sentence.
