我還搞不懂WordPress後台裡Pages與Posts有何不同?看起來Pages像是固定/靜態的頁面,Posts就是一般的日誌貼文,無意連到WP Codex說明文件中有個段落『貼文最佳實務』,寫得相當有趣,推一下!
要使用段落標題,段落分明,圖片或超鍊結要加上ALT或TITLE屬性保持可讀性,使用HTML,運用圖片與影片等等,這些我想都沒啥爭議。倒是有幾點值得討論,相互間也有微妙的關係。
『考慮你的讀者』與『貼文之前想清楚』這兩點有關聯性。雖然在部落格上發洩不滿很常見,不過你不知道會給誰看到,有時候還是得謹慎些,想說些比較爭議性或情緒性的話時,可以使用匿名的方式發布,但這似乎不適用架設站台或租賃主機代管的人。
- Consider your readers
- Perhaps this sounds weird, but consider who needs to know about your blog before you tell them about your new blogging hobby. Will you be able to write freely if you tell them? How much should you let your readers know about you? Is it ok if your boss or girlfriend reads your posts? If you don’t want them to read, take anonymity measures accordingly.
- Think before you post
- Ranting on blogs is commonplace today, but take a moment and think about what you are writing. Remember, once it is out there, it can be seen by many and crawled by search engines; and taking things back is harder once it is public. Take a moment to read what you’ve written before hitting the Publish button. When you are ready, share it with the world.
但是,作者又提出『不要太小心』,也不要『隱藏情緒』,認為這樣無法讓讀者瞭解你,至於如何拿捏就看個人吧!段落中提到不要貼上長篇大論,吹噓自己如何在幾分鐘內修理水龍頭,妙呀!不過依我看來,如果你圖文並茂說明如何修理水龍頭,我想還是會有人閱讀,對象是想表現自己DIY功力的丈夫們…
Don’t play too safe
Talk about the real you. Readers aren’t impressed by how big your house is, which cool club you belong to, or what the weather is in your hometown. Don’t be a bore and put a long post on how you fixed the leaking tap in minutes. Readers don’t care about braggers, they care about the real you–how you feel, what gets you excited, why you are the person you are. But if achievements are all that you can talk about, you will bore your readers.
- Don’t hide your emotions
- Tempting as it might be, don’t hide your real emotions. After all that is what a blog is about. If you want, you can stay anonymous and voice your feelings on whatever you are passionate about. You might have strong views on various subjects but let your readers know your passion. What is passion worth if you can’t even share it? You’ll actually love the discussions it can lead to. The discussions will broaden your own thinking and you might end up making some really good friends.
- Keep writing
- Don’t stop blogging. If you don’t have anything to write about, chances are, you are still holding back. Let loose. Perhaps surf more blogs and maybe you’ll get an idea. You can write about your friends, complain about your boss, or simply rant about what’s gone wrong. Yet if nothing else works, just write a review on the latest movie, book, or product. Easy actually.
