Four things that make a Digital copy impressive

By

Sometimes, digital copies or content don't necessarily have to be long to make an impression.

Two months ago, I woke up to a congratulatory message from LinkedIn that a recent post I’d made about the OPEC supply cut got featured in Today’s Top News at LinkedIn News.

It was one of just three similar posts selected and stood tall amongst two other posts from top media houses like The Wall Street Journal and The Associated Press.

This feat wasn't a funny joke but rather a high bar in my writing career that I had to either maintain or eclipse. 

However, upon critical assessment, I underlined 4 things that stood the post out.

• It was precise 

• It tagged relevant networks

• It referenced a reputable source

• It addressed a very controversial issue 

Next time you’re prepping a post on social media, especially on LinkedIn, you should adopt at least two of the above. It helps a lot.

Attempting this may not earn your post a feature in LinkedIn's Top News as mine did but, I'm sure it'll attract a good number of impressive engagements.

That girl is good!   By the time she turned 17, my mom had somehow given up on buying her new clothes because she would either complain about the fit or find them unstylish. Being her younger sibling, I naturally followed in her footsteps. By the time I was old enough to begin going out, we both would often visit a popular secondhand market called Udua Fiong Etok in Eket to find unique pieces that suited our style, making many of our peers in the neighbourhood admire our outfits and ask where we got them from. But due to the common belief that thrift clothing was unsanitary, my sister and I would often lie about the origin of our clothes and move on.   Initially, I didn’t embrace the idea of thrift shopping. Not because I thought it unsanitary, but because I

Is the Lagos State Government banning plastics for real?

Can you imagine a spaghetti takeout from a Lagos eatery rapped in a cocoyam leaf? However, just know that the taste of the pudding is in the eating, not the rapping. Globally, plastic waste is increasing at an alarming rate with the increase in human population, rapid economic growth, continuous urbanization, as well as lifestyle changes. This situation poses a waste management problem that sucks huge funds out of government coffers every year to address. Most of the world's waste plastics are untreated and end up as litter on the streets, in water channels, in landfills or in natural environments that provide a habitat for insects and rodents that may cause different types of diseases. From the 1950s to 2018, 6.3 billion tonnes of plastics were estimated to be produced worldwide, out of which only 9% were recycled and another 12% incinerated.  ( The Economist ) Lagos State, Nigeria’s smallest in area and most populous of 36 states, is experiencing a dire environmental problem wit
