Xomba Style Guide

by JadeDragon on April 23, 2010

Xomba just released the first installment of Xomba University.  It is a style guide that, if followed, will make you a much better web writer.  The style guide is written in a concise user friendly style.  Here is a small sample:

General  tips to help improve your writing.

·         Avoid use of exclamation points. They weaken, not strengthen, your writing. The communist reflects! (see, it is pointless)

·         Punctuation resides inside quotation marks, with few exceptions. (Ex: The quotation marks at the end of the sentence “go here.” )

·         Avoid repeating words or phrases. (Ex: It was just wonderful, and I just couldn’t believe it.)

·         Avoid using “extremely” or “very” to modify words for which value judgment is not necessary. (Ex: Very unique. Extremely gifted.)

·         In fact, avoid using “very” whenever possible.

·         Use “result,” not “end result. “ It’s redundant  and cumbersome.

Watch for updates on the new style guide too.  If you are not on Xomba you should really check it out.  This Adsense sharing site treats writers right and is working to put even more tools in writers hands.  Join Xomba today and check out the new Xomba style guide or go read an interview with the Xomba CEO.

If you are already a Xomba member, go add an article to the site to increase your passive income potential.
