Help to bloggers

The blogs I read regularly do not need this assistance, but there are others.

How to write good
1. Avoid alliteration. Always
2. Prepositions are not words to end sentences with.
3. Avoid cliches like the plague. They're old hat.
4. Comparisons are a bad as cliches.
5. Be more or less specific.
6. Writers should never generalize.
Seven: Be consistent!
8. Don't be redundant; don't use more words than necessary; it's highly superfluous.
9. Who needs rhetorical questions?
10. Exaggeration is a billion times worse than understatement.

 Lol. Uhhhh, don't you think the individuals, to whom you are directing the comments, will need to look up most of those BIG words? Yippee yippee, does that qualify as a run on? Lol, Happy New Year, Wet

 I'd also like to add avoid politics and religion here. No one is on this site to hear about either. Also, please don't ramble utter nonsense.

 Only English majors will fully appreciate your humor
Never ignore those who care for you

 I'm not certain to whom your question was addressed but I wrote a very popular college textbook on the use of technology in the classroom. a few years back.
