Virtual Handbook for Writing on the Internet
Well, I'm still stumbling around Hubpages and I came across another awesome post about how to write for the internet. It's pretty crazy how many people get started with short stories or dreams of being a novelist, but have no idea how to take those writing skills to the internet. From formatting to subject matter, there are a lot of different rules that you need to pay attention to when it comes to writing on the internet.
As the hub mentioned, one thing in particular that's important for online writing is using clear, concise titles and sub headings. Unlike reading a novel, most people online read by skimming, or skipping down to the most interesting portions. Your sub headings act like speedbumps throughout the article to slow them down and get them to pay attention to some of your content.
