1- Be consistent with colors, stick to 3 with tints and shades.
2- Consistency in imagery
3- use commas and ellipses to connect singular thoughts.
4- Attention grabbing headlines
5- Clear promise, be very clear of what you want people to think or feel .
6- Be careful to use apostrophe instead of prime
7- put a space before the ellipses and consistent space between them.
8- your photo at the end of the post should easily convey who you're.
