Useful tips, tools and links for writing online

By Mike Dennis

If you're new to writing for online or a veteran, there's always a need to improve your writing and content. These links can help you bring out the best in your writing and assist in your online experience.

Word Count & Analysis

The minimum word count for online content is typically between 100-800 words. Instead of trying to count the words yourself, there are many useful websites that can assist you. Here are some websites that can calculate how many words are in your article by copy and pasting it into the submit box:

Word Count Tool: http://www.wordcounttool.co.cc - Basic word counting tool.

Textalyser: http://textalyser.net - Advanced word, character and text analyzer.

Dictionary & Thesaurus

It's always good to use correct spelling, proper vocabulary and descriptive terms. A thesaurus, for example, can show you words that are similar to the word you enter in their website. There are many words in the English language, and a more precise term is often needed.

Dictionary: http://dictionary.reference.com/

Word Processors

Some may simply use the online content submitter to write their articles, but it's probably better to write them firstly on your computer. You can save the article for yourself, and edit it as your own leisure. You can use the text editors that you've already got, like Microsoft Word or WordPad, but there's also some excellent free editors that can be found online:
